Denzel Jackson made a free throw with six seconds left as host UMES came from behind to defeat Stony Brook, 53-52, last night in Princess Anne. The Hawks (1-1) trailed by three points at the half and by as many as 11 in the second half before closing the gap to 49-47 on Ed Tyson's three-pointer with 1:39 remaining. UMES made six free throws in the final minute to seal the win over the Seawolves (0-3). Tyson finished with a game-high 20 points and Michael Tyree had 13 for Stony Brook.

Tyree ByronMervo Indoor trackByron, a senior, placed first in three events in the Baltimore City Indoor Track Championships -- 300 (36.5 seconds), 500 (1: 08.8) and 55 (6.5). His best performance was in the 300, where he posted the area's fastest time this season.

Tyree Wright did a wonderful impression of Steve Urkel, the same goofy expression, a nearly identical laugh and practically all of the same mannerisms as the television character.But Tyree's humor was only a front. He had a serious side about him. He was a leader and an above-average student at Patterson High School, where he was to be a junior in the fall. He starred on the school's indoor track team, and teachers liked him because of his doggedness with his studies.Tyree wanted to go to college and perhaps later become a California police officer.

Reginald Davis couldn't wait to tell his mom that he had just become an award-winning playwright. So why'd she have to pick now to glue the phone to her ear?"

MOUNT AIRY Elementary School students were treated to visits by Silly Goose, Rufus the Reluctant Dragon and Funky Monkey on Wednesday afternoon.The puppet visitors seemed to magically come to life through silly songs, storytelling and ventriloquism during Val and Pam KinderSingers' performance of Animal in Action. The show was presented to the kindergarten, first- and second-grade students as part of the Cultural Arts Program sponsored by the school's PTA.Doing the Dino Dance, the kids boogied to a rock 'n' roll tune about dancing dinosaurs.

Top to bottom, there is a new attitude and promise of a bright future surrounding this year's Edgewood baseball team. It is a team that wants to earn back the respect it lost during a bad season a year ago.At the top is second-year coach Kevin Tyree, who readily admits last year was a "learning experience," for himself and his team. The experiences were not always positive, and expectations of an outstanding season were not fulfilled.This year's senior leadership comes from outfielder Jamie Coons and pitcher Wade Greason, and they vow things are different.

As it turns out, high school baseball coaches are no smarter than sportswriters -- in terms of polls, that is.A 20-member voting panel of coaches from schools that play under the auspices of the Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association chose Old Mill as the No. 1 team in the first high school baseball poll released last week.The Baltimore Sun's seven-member panel also had Old Mill No. 1 last week. In defense of all the pollsters, let's say that Old Mill is not living up to its lofty standing.

What inspires people to do amazing things? In Detroit, a city that looks like Dresden after the bombs, a young artist named Tyree Guyton has been transforming the slum where he lives into an explosive world of color. There are brightly painted dolls, shoes, bicycles and toys climbing up gnarly winter trees. There is a crucified bicycle ringed with lights to which a dolorous path paved with lost shoes winds its way, an urban Golgotha.And there is a grave there too where are interred the souls of two houses that Tyree and his girl Karen transformed.

A 12-year-old girl was shot to death yesterday afternoon by a 15-year-old boy playing with a handgun in a West Baltimore rowhouse, city police said.Janet Paula Edwards of the 1300 block of Riggs Ave. was pronounced dead shortly after she arrived at University of Maryland Medical Center, said her grandmother, Beatrice Banks."

The Ravens worked out free-agent wide receiver David Tyree on Tuesday and asked him to take a physical, which he passed. The team isn't expected to get in contact with Tyree until next week at the earliest. Players who aren't on the season-opening roster aren't guaranteed a full year's salary. General manager Ozzie Newsome confirmed on the team's Web site Tyree's tryout. This marks the Ravens' first attempt to upgrade their wide receiver group since the final major cutdown this past weekend.

COLLEGE PARK - More than seven months after Maryland ended relationships with two highly touted men's basketball recruits, coach Gary Williams and athletic department officials are offering conflicting accounts of what happened and why. Kathleen Worthington, a senior associate athletic director, yesterday questioned Williams' statements about forward Gus Gilchrist and guard Tyree Evans, who were to have been integral parts of Maryland's recruiting class....

Our money is on Chris Turner. 2 Exorcised: In ESPN's E:60 (7 p.m.), Giants Super Bowl hero David Tyree discusses his troubled past, which includes the spiritual conflict of feeling possessed by the devil and going through an exorcism. 3 He's the boss: The Ravens' head man speaks on The John Harbaugh Show (11 p.m., MASN)

Maryland basketball recruit Tyree Evans has asked to be released from his letter of intent, ending a campus debate over whether the talented guard should be permitted to play for the Terrapins despite a string of criminal offenses. Maryland released a statement yesterday saying that it had accepted the 23-year-old's decision to be released from his commitment. The withdrawal comes less than three weeks after Evans told The Sun, "I'm proud to be a Terp," and less than six weeks after he was offered a scholarship by the school's basketball staff.

Tyree Evans, a sweet-shooting, 23-year-old recruit with a history of legal troubles, signed with the University of Maryland last month but can't be admitted until a disciplinary office reviews his criminal misdemeanors and makes a recommendation to the admissions office, school officials said yesterday. Evans, who has bounced from high school to prep school to two junior colleges, must wait as another school decides whether to gamble on a young man whose talent has intrigued multiple colleges but whose background has frightened many of them away.
