COLLEGE PARK -- When freshman quarterback Latrez Harrison zipped a 30-yard passthrough three defenders into the sure hands of Scooter Monroe, a collective gasp of amazement could be heard from almost everybody watching Maryland's first workout yesterday in full pads.The 6-foot-3, 214-pound Harrison would come back throughout the hot afternoon to throw a riveting assortment of long and short passes, featuring arm strength, touch and natural instincts.It was show time for the freshman while No. 1 quarterback Randall Jones and No. 2 Calvin McCall were virtually helpless to answer due to minor ailments.

COLLEGE PARK -- It was only a spring game, but redshirt freshman quarterback Calvin McCall showed last night he was prepared to battle sophomore Randall Jones next fall for the No. 1 job at Maryland."

COLLEGE PARK -- When freshman quarterback Latrez Harrison came off the bench early in the fourth quarter and threw a 13-yard bullet pass to Guilian Gary, the Maryland football show was complete last night.Everybody from cool starting quarterback Calvin McCall to rumbling defensive end Peter Timmins played major roles in a 51-10 romp past Division I-AA Western Carolina at Byrd Stadium.And there was the sight of freshman Scooter Monroe from John Carroll racing down the field to pull in a 72-yard touchdown pass from Trey Evans early in the fourth quarter to complete the scoring.

"This is a jewel in the city," said Laura McCall of her four-story deck house in Coldspring New Town styled by Israeli architect Moshe Safdie after Italian hillside townhouses.McCall bought the house new in 1979 for $45,000 and had hardwood floors -- rather than carpeting -- put in for $2,000. She said she was offered almost double the total for the house in the late 1980s, but she decided not to sell.Safdie was an architectural genius, McCall said, explaining that he gained worldwide fame for his bubble houses at the Montreal Expo in 1967.

COLLEGE PARK -- They say excuses are for losers.But the Maryland football team will be replaying yesterday's ill-fated 68-yard fourth-quarter drive for a long time.The march produced only a 28-yard field goal by Brian Kopka and was a major factor in a 25-22 loss to Duke.The drive had many twists and came within inches of producing a touchdown that would have given the Terps a 26-17 lead with less than 10 minutes remaining.As usual for Maryland, LaMont Jordan was in the middle of things when he took off for what appeared to be a 61-yard run to the 1-foot line on third-and-two from the Maryland 38.But a 10-yard holding penalty against the Terps brought the ball back to the Maryland 28.The Terps did make up a lot of the real estate with the help of a 15-yard personal foul penalty against Duke.

COLLEGE PARK -- Ever wonder where a 19-year-old redshirt freshman quarterback goes on a Sunday afternoon to get away from the pressure of trying to lead a once-doormat football program back toward the top of the Atlantic Coast Conference?Maryland's Calvin McCall escapes to his dormitory room and cranks up his compact disc player to the sounds of Tim McGraw, Garth Brooks, Shania Twain, Clint Black and Bryan White.Yes, "Country Calvin" has come to the cosmopolitan Washington area, complete with 8-inch dreadlocks, a gold tooth and an intense desire to maintain his identity at all costs.

COLLEGE PARK -- Maryland football became a little more intriguing last night when coach Ron Vanderlinden said he has decided to enter the season opener against Temple with quarterbacks Randall Jones and Calvin McCall serving as "co-starters.""They are two capable quarterbacks, and they'll be on the field depending on the game situation," said Vanderlinden after a final preseason scrimmage last night that was curtailed by heavy rain."I haven't determined yet who will be out there for the first series, but I'm going with co-starters, like Clemson [Brandon Streeter and Woody Dantzler]

COLLEGE PARK -- Football quarterback Calvin McCall participated in his ninth practice with the Maryland basketball team last night, but coach Gary Williams had not yet added the 6-foot-2 shooting guard to the roster."

COLLEGE PARK -- It is becoming increasingly apparent that redshirt freshman Calvin McCall will start at quarterback a week from tomorrow when Maryland opens its 1999 football season against Temple at 6 p.m. in Philadelphia.Maryland coach Ron Vanderlinden has dropped hints the past two days that possibly lead to McCall, 6 feet 3, 189 pounds, getting the call against the Owls.Vanderlinden on Monday virtually ruled out starting freshman Latrez Harrison by saying, "I don't like the idea of starting a true freshman in the first game of the season."

Left-hander Cole McCurry doesn't have a flashy resume, an impressive pedigree or a glove-popping fastball. He does, however, have a knack for winning, a quiet confidence and the right neighborhood. The first two attributes have helped McCurry, 23, who is 2-0 with a 1.30 ERA in five starts, raise some eyebrows at Single-A Delmarva this season. The third is a big reason he ended up in the Orioles' organization. McCurry, a resident of small-town Candler, N.C., located near Asheville in the western part of the state, excelled at Surry (N.C.
