Nick Faust and Eric Greer scored 13 points apiece for No. 8 City, which slowed Bowie's offense with its swarming defense and pulled out a 56-51 victory Friday night in the Poly Invitational. Bowie (0-1), ranked No. 9 by The Washington Post, struggled to find good shots against City's tough zone defenses. The Knights used different zones that often forced the Bulldogs to take shots from outside - or when Bowie players did get inside, they wound up with two or three City players around them.

Catoctin Mountain rises in the distance on my right as I cruise down Route 15 past wheat-colored meadows and pastures dotted with sleek, long-legged horses. I've left Frederick and crossed the Potomac River, the line between Maryland and Virginia, on my way south to Leesburg. My husband's schedule didn't permit a winter getaway and friends weren't available, so I'm on my own. But after a long holiday season spent catering to my nearest and dearest, I'm primed for a selfish couple of days away.

Loyola's leading point producer Austin Rodgers has a very unselfish philosophy. "I'm happy to just give assists," said Rodgers, a senior attackman. "I like throwing to other guys and letting them score. I don't like getting all the goals and all that. Nothing's wrong with getting goals, I just like watching everyone else celebrate." Despite his distaste for goals and celebration, Rodgers threw four in the net on top of three assists as the fifth-ranked Dons steamrolled top-ranked Severn, 15-4, in a Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference game yesterday in Severna Park.
