INDEX Calendar . . . . . . . . . . .E-8 UPPER MARLBORO – The chief financial officer of Prince George’s County Public Schools resigned Monday after the school district learned he committed insurance fraud. According to a statement from Max Pugh, spokesman for Prince George’s County Public Schools, the school district learned the former chief financial officer, Colby White, and his wife Keisha White, an internal auditor for the school district, committed insurance fraud last Friday. The Whites were placed on administrative leave without pay until their resignation. The resignations of both employees have been accepted and are effective immediately, according to a statement from Board of Education President Segun Eubanks and PGCPS Chief Executive Officer Kevin Maxwell. Chief Operating Officer Monica Goldson will temporarily assume the responsibilities of chief financial officer, Pugh said. Maxwell appointed Colby White as chief financial officer in June. Colby White had a salary of $169,008 and Keisha White had a salary of $95,540, Pugh said. “In an abundance of caution, we will ask our external independent auditors to confirm there are no improprieties,” Eubanks and Maxwell said in a statement. A Maryland Insurance Administration (MIA) fraud order found that Colby White and Keisha White knowingly filed an insurance claim with Erie Insurance Exchange for a lost diamond ring, despite already receiving $16,313 in compensation for the same ring from Travelers Indemnity Insurance. In August 2013, Colby White filed a loss claim for Keisha White’s lost “wedding/engagement band and engagement ring set” with Erie Insurance Exchange. However, according to the order, in April 2013, Colby White had already filed a loss claim for the same ring with Travelers Indemnity Insurance, four months before White filed a claim with Erie Insurance. Travelers Insurance had paid Colby White $16,313 for the loss of the ring, according to the MIA insur- COURTESY PHOTO Above, former PGCPS chief financial officer Colby White. ance fraud order.

The coalition, known as the Maryland Coalition Against Cell Towers on School Grounds, is the latest development in a growing movement against placing cell phone towers on Prince George’s County Public Schools properties. Unlike Montgomery County, Anne Arundel County and Baltimore City, no cell phone towers have been built yet on public schools in the county. Local organizers said they hope the coalition will help keep towers off the properties. “We are trying to galvanize community support and convince the school board that we are not happy about this,” said Charlene Bearisto, a Bowie resident and parent of a Bowie High School student. Bowie is one of 73 potential school sites that the developer, Milestone Communications, is looking to place is looking to place a tower, according to a 2011 leasing agreement between the Prince George’s County Board of Education and Milestone Communications, the cell phone tower provider. Nothing has been built yet, but building permits for cell phone towers at several schools have been submitted for review. The coalition has a total of 22 organizations, including the NAACP chapters of Prince George’s County, Montgomery County and Anne Arundel County. “This is the first time community groups have crossed county lines to work on issues,” said Bob Ross, president of the Prince George’s County chapter of the NAACP. “I’m really excited about that. We partnered up with organizations against cell phone towers to get an understanding of the issue. After that, we are weighing our options. Our team is on a halt until we collect all of the data.” The coalition’s organizers said they oppose the towers mainly because of health concerns and lack of transparency about the projects from local school boards. “The Board didn’t get a good deal and parents were not informed,” Bearisto said. “Taxpayers are paying taxes for education, not for radiation.” According to the leasing agreement, Milestone will pay the school district an initial $25,000 for each tower and 40 percent of revenue generated from the towers.

Citizens voiced their concerns over the way Patuxent Greens has been treating them and the value of their homes potentially being compromised by the proposed solar arrays. “They failed to provide an opportunity for input in the planning process,” said Laurel resident and Prince George’s County Board of Education Member Zabrina Epps. “The golf course has done only the minimum required by law. I think that’s shameful.” Epps said she and her neighbors support using solar energy, but she thinks the fact that there has been only one meeting for citizens to voice concerns is troubling. “We’re not only here for us, the 156 units of the villages of the Greens Patuxent,” Epps said. “We’re here for other people throughout Laurel. We want to make sure that any business or developer that wants to install solar panels that they do so responsibly.” The city proposed a text amendment when Patuxent Greens asked if raising solar arrays would be permitted under city law, according to City Attorney Robert Manzi, because the council decided that there needed to be regulations concerning solar energy and arrays. “We don’t have anything in our law that allows for arrays of solar panels on either commercial or residential property of any type,” Manzi said. “When this project came up and Patuxent Greens came to us we didn’t have anything in the law.” Manzi said the text amendment would affect properties citywide, not just the Patuxent Greens property. Prince George’s Community College students help clean up cigarettes By Jessica Stein Special to the Sentinel KETTERING – On Wednesday morning, student volunteers at Prince George’s Community College spent an hour walking around campus collecting littered cigarette butts into a jar as part of a campaign to stop smoking. The clean-up event kicks off the campus’ first smoke and tobaccofree semester. School officials hope this step away from tobacco products will help create a healthier environment for students and faculty, both smokers and nonsmokers, said Dawn Berkowitz director of the Maryland Center For Tobacco Prevention and Control. At the end of the day, the student who guessed the correct number of butts in the jar received a prize from the bookstore, Berkowitz said. The State Department of Health decided to piggyback off of the col- lege’s clean-up to get the word out about a litter campaign it has launched. Berkowitz hopes the campaign, focused specifically on tobacco-related litter, will raise awareness about the negative effects of tobacco use. “A lot of people just flick their butts away,” Berkowitz said. “Cigarettes are not biodegradable.” People are far more likely to litter cigarette butts than soda cans or chips bags, she said, and tobacco litter has a significant impact on the ecosystem, waterways, wildlife, residents and the aesthetics of the community. At a minimum, the campaign’s goal is to reduce tobacco litter, but at best, it can help people quit altogether, Berkowitz said. The state is now offering free counseling for smokers 13 years of age or older through the Maryland tobacco quit line. The center also offers free nicotine patches and gums and has programs targeted specifically for youth and pregnant women. “We want to give people the tools to help them quit, because we know it’s hard,” Berkowitz said. Recently, state representatives have appeared at Baltimore Ravens and Baltimore Orioles games in an effort to connect with the community. They will also be attending the upcoming Towson African American Cultural Festival. Berkowitz said community outreach is an essential component of the campaign. “Smoking and smoking-related diseases kill more Marylanders than anything else,” she said. “It affects so many different systems in your body,” Berkowitz said. Some of the diseases smoking can lead to include cancer, emphysema and heart disease, she said. “It’s a needless impact on the health of Marylanders,” Berkowitz said. The best place for local news The Sentinel The planning commission will still have to review the site plan and approve it, Manzi said. Matthew Tedesco, an attorney representing the golf course, said Patuxent Greens does not want to inconvenience anyone. The golf course provided notice to the citizens, Tedesco said, and it did what it needed to do even if the community is displeased. “Within a week, a week and a half, we sent out a notice to the community which is not a requirement under a law, albeit, we felt it necessary,” Tedesco said. “That is not to say that that appeases the community. I understand. The truth of the matter is that legally no notification was required based on what we needed.” Tedesco said the solar panel arrays would help with any future sustainability of the golf course, which will help the community going forward. “We understand that the location of the array may not be ideal for some, but the truth of the matter is that given the property as it sits, in order to locate it somewhere else it would require a significant loss of trees,” Tedesco said. The council will discuss the text amendment at its next meeting in mid-October, Manzi said, but there is no tentative deadline for when the council could pass it. Synagogue helps usher in Jewish New Year By Jessica Stein Special to the Sentinel GREENBELT – As the High Holiday season approaches and the Jewish New Year begins, members of the Mishkan Torah Synagogue are celebrating by helping raise money for charities. According to Jeff Rosen, the synagogues’ publicity chair, the Mishkan Torah will hold a children’s Rosh Hashanah family dinner involving symbolic foods, stories and songs in observance of the new year. The dinner will cost $5 per person and profits will benefit the Prince George’s County Community Crisis Services, Inc. The center provides assistance to people struggling with mental illness, suicide, homelessness and domestic violence, Rosen said. “Charity is a major theme in the High Holidays,” Rosen said. Three key themes of the holiday season, Rosen said, are introspection, prayer and charity. “They are values that tie together, especially in literature,” Rosen said. “You ask yourself, ‘What have I done for other people?’ or, ‘What have I done for this community?’ Charity is an integral part of Judaism. It always has been, always will be.” The synagogue is also hosting a food drive starting on Oct. 3, the eve of Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year. On Oct.19, at 12:45 p.m., the congregation and other volunteers will participate in a march to help the homeless, Rosen said. Participants will donate $20 to the cause in order to walk around Greenbelt Lake in Buddy Attick Park. “Usually, with any luck, we get a gorgeous fall day,” Rosen said. The Community Crisis Services center uses the proceeds from the walk to educate people in the county about homelessness, said Executive Director Timothy Jansen. "Even in a county as rich as ours, we still have people struggling to meet basic needs of clothes, food, shelter," Jansen said. The center has been fortunate to receive so much support from Mishkan Torah and the rest of the community, Jansen said. Rosen said charity is an important part of Jewish tradition, referring to the Hebrew phrase “Tikkun Olam,” which means “heal the world.” “It’s an important concept,” Rosen said. “Social justice is just an integral part of who we are.” SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL 3 NEWS School board settles discrimination lawsuit By Melanie Balakit Special to the Sentinel GREENBELT – The Prince George’s County Board of Education agreed to an out-of-court settlement with a former Largo High School secretary who claimed the school’s principal discriminated against her. “The parties have resolved the case and we cannot discuss it further,” said Max Pugh, a spokesman for Prince George’s County Public Schools. In August, U.S. District Court jury awarded a former English teacher $350,000 after he claimed discrimination by the same principal, Angelique Simpson-March. In her complaint filed with the U.S. District Court, secretary Tracy Allison claimed Simpson-Marcus called her a “chicken head,” “hoodrat,” and “ghetto” along with other terms in the presence of faculty, staff, parents and students from 2007-2010, before transferring to another school. Allison claimed Prince George’s County Public Schools did not respond to multiple complaints she made with the school system. Starting in 2007, Allison complained about Simpson-Marcus to her union, the human resources department and William Barnes, Largo High School’s regional director. Darlene Ball-Rice, the principal’s secretary, also complained to Simpson-Marcus and Barnes about Simpson-Marcus’ name calling starting in fall of 2007, according to court documents. However, according to the documents, PGCPS did not conduct an investigation or take action. During the 2008-2009 school year, Allison began to experience severe panic attacks and attempted suicide, according to her complaints. She transferred out of Largo High School in 2010 to get away from Simpson-Marcus. Allison filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in April 2011 indicating discrimination on race, sex and retaliation. Simspon-Marcus remains in her position as the school’s principal, and Valerie White, president of the Largo High School ParentTeacher-Student Association, said the organization supports her. “She’s an excellent principal,” White said. “I don’t see her in that manner, that’s all I can say. She has brought up this school form a very long way. It’s a great academic school. Students are achieving.” Judge Peter J. Messitte declined to comment, and Tracy Allison’s attorney, Neil Leibowitz, did not respond to requests. A representative from Thatcher Law, which represented the Board of Education in the case, said the attorneys do not discuss cases with the media. Local teacher wins on County receives $375,000 grant for Wheel of Fortune environmentally-friendly projects By Melanie Balakit Special to the Sentinel FORESTVILLE – A Prince George’s County Public Schools elementary school teacher became the second Maryland teacher this week to win big on the Wheel of Fortune Thursday night. Lee Hawkins, a fifth grade social studies and science teacher at Longfields Elementary School won $23,800 on the game show. The night before a teacher from Takoma Park Middle School won $1 million. A crowd of more than 55 students, parents, teachers and family members clapped and cheered for every consonant, vowel and phrase Hawkins guessed correctly at a viewing party held at Longfields. The crowd booed at Hawkins’ opponents when they gained the upper hand, and again when Hawkins spun the 2,400-pound wheel and landed on the ‘bankrupt,’ space. The raucous of the crowd was more likened to a close football match in the final quarter than that of a televised game show as students jumped out of their seats. “It was amazing, the energy of the room,” said Longfields Princi- pal Maisha Strong. The energy and excitement of the students is exactly why Hawkins said she wanted to participate on the show. “I’m trying to do this for these kids,” Hawkins said. “I’m ready to try to get them more motivated.” During commercials, Hawkins and Strong used game show to teach students the importance of reading and critical-thinking skills. “See how it’s important to read every night?” Strong asked the students. “Or else, you won’t be able to solve the puzzle.” Hawkins completed phrases including ‘Flock of Sheep’, ‘Little House on the Prairie’ and ‘BlueRibbon Winner.” Success on the Wheel of Fortune involves being exposed to many different things, an experience she said teachers have. In the end, Strong said, Hawkins’ performance on the Wheel of Fortune presented a great opportunity for the community to come together. “When one person celebrates, we all celebrate. We’re a cohesive community that loves just to have fun. By Alexis A. Goring Special to the Sentinel LARGO— On a crisp, pre-autumn morning outside of the Department of the Environment building, officials announced the county will receive a $375,000 grant to support environmentallyfriendly projects in the county. “I think these are incredibly important grants,” said U.S. Senator Ben Cardin (D-Md.). “They give us a way where we get buy-ins from the community…It gives us the most efficient way to deal with the practical problems to clean up the bay.” The grant money comes from the Chesapeake Bay Stewardship Fund awarded the funding for the project. “It’s a huge effort that is before us to improve the water quality but also the habitats of the Chesapeake Bay,” said Amanda Bassow, director of the eastern partnership office for the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation. “But these grants are about getting resources into the hands of local folks who know what needs to be done and have the resources and the partnerships to do it.” According to the Chesapeake Bay Program, the money will help retrofit a 7.8 acre-office complex with bioretention facilities using new design configurations to help increase the volume of stormwater that can be treated for high phosphorous and nitrogen levels. Adam Ortiz, director of the Department of the Environment, said pollution is a problem, and much of it comes from water running off of impervious surfaces such as parking lots, roads and roofs. The solution, said Ortiz, is to build rain gardens throughout the property in order make sure every drop of rain is treated naturally before it runs off the property. Rain gardens are designed to capture, control and use the water when the raindrops hit the ground so they can reduce flooding and pollution. “Maryland has very progressive laws on making sure that we’re controlling pollution from urbanized areas,” said Ortiz. “Here in Prince Georges, we’ve embraced those new laws because we feel that they’re great ways to make our county healthier, more beautiful and it’s a great way to put people to work.” Jacqueline Goodall, mayor of Forest Heights, said she is a proponent of green infrastructure and assuring that there is “zero run-off” in the county. “One of the ways that it (the grant money) will help the town of Forest Heights and all of the municipalities, especially the municipalities inside of the Beltway, is generally we don’t have the funding and the monies to be able to do the things that we need to do and things that we’re required to do by law,” she said. “So this money..will allow us to be able to learn, to educate our council, to educate our other mayors and to reach our citizens so that we can implement some of these projects.” Jake Reilly, director of Chesapeake Bay programs for the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation said the program organizes private and federal funding sources in order to deliver the grants. “We really hope these funds are used in a way that helps local governments figure out ways that they can really address storm water issues right,” Reilly said. 4 SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL NEWS Chief financial officer resigns after committing insurance fraud From “fraud” page 1 In November 2013, a special investigator from Erie Insurance obtained a recorded statement from Colby White. “During the interview, Colby White denied filing a prior lost jewelry claim,” the MIA fraud order said. “However, when confronted with evidence of the prior claim he had made to Travelers for the loss of the same ring, he admitted to making the prior claim and receiving compensation.’’ The Whites were required to sign documents with Erie that contained insurance fraud warning statements. On one of the documents, they both said there were no other insurance claims for the lost ring, according to the order. Later that month, Colby White withdrew the compensation claim from Erie Insurance. Erie Insurance then referred the matter to the Maryland Insurance Administration Fraud Division. In an interview with the Maryland Insurance Administration Fraud Divi- sion, the couple admitted to have knowingly submitted two separate claims for the loss of the same ring. “Keisha White acknowledged knowing of the first Travelers claim and further admitted to knowing that the same ring was claimed as lost again to Erie,” according to the fraud order. On Aug. 13, 2014, the Mary- land Insurance Administration ordered Colby and Keisha White to pay a fine of $3,000 each. The Whites paid the total fine of $6,000 and did not appeal the order, said Vivian Laxton, director of public affairs at the Maryland Insurance Administration. The Whites could not be reached for comment on this report. Residents from Prince George’s, Montgomery and Anne Arundel team up against towers From “towers” page 1 will go towards a general fund, not to specific schools hosting the tower. Coalition organizers said they are worried about children developing cancer as a result of exposure to radio emissions from the towers. In a previous Sentinel report, Max Pugh, spokesman for PGCPS said according to the Federal Communications Commission, cell phone towers have not been proven to be a health hazard to nearby residents or students. According to the FCC, the strength of radio frequency emissions decreases as it travels from the top of the antenna to the ground. “Should the FCC change this position, the Board can revisit this issue at that time,” Pugh said. Earlier this month, residents and parents, as well as Ross, vocalized their opposition at a Board of Education meeting. More than 1,000 people have signed an online petition sponsored by Safe Schools, a Prince George’s County-based organization against cell towers on school grounds. Most recently, coalition members have spoken at PTSA meetings in the county. “I find the more people we can get to come on board, the more we can protect ourselves, as well as our kids,” said Perc'ie Rutherford of Upper Marlboro. Rutherford worked to prevent a cell phone tower from going up in his neighborhood in 2008. “I fought the cell phone tower and I won,” said Rutherford, who collected signatures for a petition and reached out to local politicians. “I want the same for them.” Coalition members from Montgomery County and Anne Arundel County have had similar success ex- periences as Rutherford. Jessica O’Kane, of Odenton, is part of Anne Arundel County Against Cell Towers at Schools (AACoACTS). Like Prince George’s County, Milestone looking to put towers on school properties in Anne Arundel County. In January, she and other members successfully stopped the construction of a cell tower at Piney Orchard Elementary School. Milestone wrote a letter saying the Piney Orchard Elementary school site would not work out, O’Kane said. “It’s very stressful to fight these fights,” O’Kane said. “We would have moved.” Janis Sartucci, a Montgomery County resident, led the Parents’ Coalition of Montgomery County’s efforts to prevent cell phone towers from being built on six school sites in Montgomery County. In all three counties, the fight against cell phone towers on public school grounds is far from over because each cell phone tower application is reviewed individually. “Time will show that we were on the right side of the issue,” said Bearisto. www.thesentinel.com The Sentinel website is here Much more news and information from and about your community as close as your fingertips L’Shanah Tovah from The Sentinel newspapers.

And that was just the beginning. Thanks to a variety of fund-raisers, they were to plant an ivy-covered bank at Middleton Valley School, provide gardening and ecology books for six area schools, and take on a major landscaping project for nearby Taney Junior High, In 1974, when Cornelia Snidero was president, the Club was renamed the Woodberry Garden Club and became a member of the National Capital Area Federation of Garden Clubs and the National Federation of Garden Clubs. During the 1980s the Club made seven dried-flower arrangements for the Surratt House, according to the style of the 1860s; provided arrangements for Crossland High’s Homecoming; planted a Star Magnolia at Taney; and supported Crossland’s Horticultural Department by planting bulbs, shrubs and perennials. Over the years club members have been hostesses at the Botanical Gardens Christmas Green Show, participated in judging flower shows, decorated the Fischer House at Joint Base Andrews, and supported such civic projects as Care World Gardening, Chesapeake Bay Cleanup and Cancer Research. After 45 years of beautifying our schools, roadways and other places, Woodberry Garden Club has had to shut down, for lack of members. At their peak there were about 30, all from the neighborhood. Some were military wives and moved when their husbands were transferred. Others had ill health, or other problems. We thank them for those 45 so-productive years. We’ll miss them. Redskins salute Joint Base Andrews The Washington Redskins practiced and signed autographs Aug. 22 at Andrews. The event was part of a military appreciation initiative, Redskins Salute. The team ran a 45-minute practice at the turf field. The audience was service members, their families and the 11th Force Support Squadron Summer Day Camp. Then the team signed autographs and handed out banners and posters. Neighbors The Morningside Police Department conducted a modified checkpoint detail at Suitland and Beauford Road on July 25. It yielded 51 State Traffic Citations, two arrests (one, drug related, and one, Warrant hit), and they impounded two vehicles.

My son Brian McHale had surgery at Johns Hopkins on Sept. 10 for a brain tumor. I had hundreds of people praying for him, and those prayers surely worked, as surgery went very well. Brian recovered quickly and feels “great” and is back playing the guitar. After the staples (from his right ear to above his left eye) are removed next week, he and his wife Carol will return to their home in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, where he is an engineer with Boeing.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 19 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL SPORTS Forestville, Fairmont Heights face each other in matchup of undefeated teams in Week Four By Charles Abankwa Sentinel Sports Largo at Friendly Both the Lions and Patriots are coming off of losses, and looking to pick up wins. Each team is led by a dynamic quarterback-wide receiver tandem. For the Lions, quarterback Nyeim Risien and wideout Nate Manning are looking to continue their play from last week that saw the tandem connect for two long touchdowns. The Patriots have a duo of their own in Reicardo Smith and Isiah Ryans. Ultimately, defense could determine who wins this game. Forestville at Fairmont Heights Before the season began if you were asked to name two teams that would be undefeated in the 2A go- ing into week four, not many people would’ve picked the Forestville Knights and even fewer would have chosen the Hornets. Both teams are 3-0 and a victory this weekend would solidify the team’s legitimacy around the county and put it on the fast track to the playoffs. Eleanor Roosevelt at Oxon Hill Eleanor Roosevelt is coming off another dominating win after beating High Point 42-0. Oxon Hill on the other hand is looking for a better showing after a 43-12 loss to Wise.While the game will provide a chance for Oxon Hill to prove itself to the rest of the county, beating the Raiders is a tough task because they have outscored their first three opponents 96-18. Wise at Bowie Wise has rebounded from a season-opening loss to win two games in a row and get above .500. Bowie is coming off a tough lost to the Suitland, but will be playing its first game of the season at home as they look to get back to .500 on the season. The Pumas can put some space between themselves and the other teams in the division not named Roosevelt with a big road victory.

The coalition, started by Montgomery County Councilman Roger Berliner, includes Greenbelt and College Park, Montgomery County municipalities, and other elected officials, environmental groups, energy companies and think tanks. “This broad coalition recognizes that the current utility system is broken. No one knows this more than the residents of Montgomery County and Prince George’s county,” Berliner said.“The reforms the Coalition are advancing would result in giving more power to rate payers; creating a cleaner, much more reliable grid; improving costeffectiveness; and spurring innovation and economic growth.” In April, Pepco and Exelon announced a $6.8 billion cash deal. Pepco provides electric service to Washington D.C., Prince George’s County and Montgomery County. Exelon is based in Chicago and owns nuclear power plants and three other utilities. On Friday, the coalition submitted a petition to the Maryland Public Service Commission, to intervene on the proposed Pepco-Exelon Merger. According to the petition, the coalition does not oppose the merger. The coalition requests half of the merged entity’s profit be determined by its ability to meet “stan- dards related to cost minimization, reliability, customer satisfaction, carbon reduction, environmental stewardship, distributed energy resources, customer control and innovation.” If approved by the Maryland Public Service Commission, the merger would result in one company providing electric distribution services to 85 percent of Maryland, according to the petition. College Park Mayor Andrew Fellows and Greenbelt Mayor Emmett Jordan said they hope the merger will help improve energy service reliability and better rates. “The people of College Park could be served better than they currently are,” said Fellows. “I think service for reliability has been an issue everywhere.

Candidates make their cases for Board of Education By Melanie Balakit Special to the Sentinel This Novemeber, county residents will vote to select four new members for the Board of Education. In District 2, incumbent Peggy Higgins is up against Lupi Grady. Peggy Higgins has served on the Board since 2010. Higgins is the director of youth, family and seniors services for the city of College Park. Higgins said she’s had 30 years working in the county as a social worker. In her term as a board member, Higgins said she started a pilot program for all schools in District 2 to highlight accomplishments of their students. She also created quarterly meetings for the Parent Teacher Association leadership in her district to meet. “I’ve been doing the work,” she said. If reelected, Higgins said she’d prioritize the improvement of the conditions of school buildings, the engagement of parents and community in education, and setting policies to attract families to the school system.

Grady also has the endorsement of County Executive Rushern Baker. “I would really go in [the Board] there learning and listening with an open mind,” Grady said. “Transparency and commu- nication is very important, even when there’s hard decisions.” If elected, Grady said she would like to create a comprehensive approach to evaluating teachers. This would involve identifying performance gaps and finding ways to further cultivate talented teachers. She also said she would work to engage parents and community in education. In District 3, Board member Amber Waller goes up against Dinora Hernandez, the county executive’s first Latino liaison. Amber Waller has served on the Board since 2007.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL NEWS Smoke alarm saves resident’s life By Jim Davis Special to the Sentinel GLENARDEN - Prince George's County Fire Department officials are crediting a smoke alarm for saving the life of a resident whose house went up in flames early Sunday morning. The fire was reported around 12:30 a.m. on the 1500 block of Second St. “When firefighters arrived on the scene they encountered heavy fire condition on the first floor of a twostory house," said Mark Brady. spokesperson for the county fire department. Prior to firefighters arriving on the scene, a smoke alarm went off alerting a resident who was sleeping at the time, said Brady. "This shows how smoke alarms work,” Brady said. “If the house did not have a smoke alarm or a working alarm we could have been dealing with a fatal fire.” Firefighters were able to bring the fire under control within 30 minutes. "Three firefighters suffered minor burns '' said Brady. The firefighters were transported to the Washington Hospital Burn Center with first and second degree burns to their upper body. The cause of the fire is under investigation, and there were no other injuries reported. ADVERTISE IN The Sentinel!

I think some of the issues are related to the competitiveness and the rates.” Fellows said the merger is “a really good opportunity” for municipalities to explore opportunities for fair and better utility reform. Jordan said energy reliability has improved since Pepco imple- mented a reliability improvement program three years ago. “They’ve had some strides,” Jordan said. “They made taller poles, trimmed trees, invested in improvements. We’re really not sure for Greenbelters what extent this merger will benefit our residents.” said Jordan. Greenbelt residents would like to see more renewable energy sources, Jordan said, such as solar power and wind power. “By joining the coalition and having a say in the hearing, we’re hoping to get some more consumerfocused measures from a big utility company,” Jordan said. As election nears, Board of Education candidates trying to separate themselves From “candidates” page E-1 ing to institute the first bilingual parent academy, installing a solar roof top at University Park Elementary, community outreach to gangs and youth violence and partnering with the Anacostia Watershed Society to work with schools. “I know county, state and school system resources,” Waller said. Dinora Hernandez could not be reached for comment. In District 6, incumbent Carolyn Boston runs against Pat Fletcher, a former Board member. Carolyn Boston has served on the Board since 2010. With two months left until general elections, Boston said she is trying to be as visible as possible. This includes going to community events, visiting schools, meeting with parent teacher associations and civic associations, she said. “My main goal for the last four years, and will continue to be, is to have more parental and community engagements,” Boston said. “So many parents are not involved in educating their students or don’t know how to navigate the school system. I’m approachable as a board member. I’ll fight for parents to have a voice on the board, to make sure parents are involved in the education process.” Boston said her opponent, Pat Fletcher, did a good job when she served on the board. However, Boston said she is more connected to the community. In her term, Boston said she supported the community outreach center and introduction of Spanish immersion back in the curriculum. Pat Fletcher previously served on the Board of Education before losing to Boston in 2010. Since then, Fletcher has served as board liaison for Head Start, a federal early childhood education program, and attended parent council meetings. Fletcher said her campaign strategy is to focus on emphasizing her transparency. “There’s no hidden agenda,” Fletcher said. “I want them to know that the children we serve in my district and the county as a whole is my number one priority. I do not follow marching orders of elected officials. The community drives my decisions.” If elected, Fletcher said she would work to make students more college and career ready. “We need to start the career path at an earlier grade level,” Fletcher said. Students should be introduced to classes geared towards college and career beginning in 8th grade, Fletcher said. In District 9, Board member Sonya Williams is up against Domonique Flowers. Sonya Williams is a civil engineer who was appointed to the Board by Baker in January. “I want people to understand ARTS LEGALS CLASSIFIEDS SPORTS NEWS ENTERTAINMENT Find Everything in One Place... The Sentinel! Call 301.306.9500 I may have not been brought up in the educational arena, but the foundation of leadership and strategic decisions is what I bring to the Board,” Williams said. “In the nine months I’ve been appointed, it’s really been about learning the process. I understand that better, I’m able to move things forward now.” If reelected, Williams said she will prioritize the modernization of school facilities and work to provide a better support system for individual education plan students. Williams also said she would like to increase the number of parent-teacher conference days and maintain communication with constituents. She said she holds coffee sessions every third Saturday of the month to talk with parents. “I was a former PTA president,” Williams said. “I want to make sure there’s an open line of communication between the school board, parents and admin- istration.” Domonique Flowers said he has 15 years of experience working with parents, students and teachers in the county. A District 9 native, Flowers has served on the ethics panel and disability board of PGCPS and has served as a special education attorney. Flowers said he is using grassroots techniques to reach as many people as possible. If elected, Flowers said he will work to better connect schools with community partners, nonprofits and civic associations. “We need to make sure our kids are given the best resources necessary to matriculate to college,” he said. Flowers also said he would like to create a system to track the success of Prince George’s county public school graduates. “I want to go into schools and personally work with teachers and students,” Flowers said. “I want to bring that personal touch to schools.” E-5 SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL NEWS Volunteer firefighter honored PHOTO BY JIM DAVIS Chris Saputo, pictured above, was honored by his peers as Firefighter of the Year. By Jim Davis Special to the Sentinel LANDOVER – Prince George's County Volunteer Deputy Fire Chief Chris Saputo received the Firefighter of the Year award for his actions at the scene of a motor vehicle accident in May involving a pick-up truck on the Baltimore Washington Parkway. Saputo, who works at the Landover Hills Volunteer Fire Department, received the award from the Prince George's County Volunteer Fire & Rescue Association Firefighter. Saputo was returning from visiting a friend at a Baltimore hospital when he came across the accident. “I was coming down the parkway when I noticed several cars pulled over and people standing on the parkway looking down an embankment,” Saputo said. “I pulled over and was informed bystanders that a pick-up truck had run off the road and went down the embankment with a man still inside and the truck was on fire.” Saputo quickly put on his personal protective equipment and made his way down the embankment. “When I got close to the truck I noticed that the engine compartment was on fire and was spreading to the passenger compartment and the vehicle's undercarriage,” he said. “The man was still alive, his hands and part of his upper body hanging out of the driver's window. I tried to open the driver's door, but couldn't. It was jammed. I ran to the other side of the car and that door was also jammed.” Saputo then decided to back to the driver’s side to try and pull the man through the window, but the man’s legs were pinned. “I kept trying until the passenger compartment became fully-engulfed in flames. At that point I had to retreat,” Saputo said. Fire units arrived on the scene and were able to extinguish the fire, but the driver was pronounced dead. “I was frustrated. I felt pity for the man. I tried everything I could to save him,” Saputo. “I had to just stand there and watch him burn to death.” During the attempted rescue, Saputo suffered first- and seconddegree burns to his arms and hands. “He did a great thing,” said Landover Hills Volunteer Fire Chief John Roberts. “I hope I will never be in that situation.” New orbiter arrives at Mars By DaShawn Fleming Special to the Sentinel GREENBELT – MAVEN, the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution, finally entered the orbit of Mars Sunday night. MAVEN, NASA’s 10th Mars orbiter, launched in November 2013 and journeyed 10 months to the red planet to provide NASA with information on how Mars’ atmosphere has changed over time. “MAVEN’s purpose is to measure the chemistry that’s at the top of the Martian atmosphere and at the same time measure the ionizing radiation that comes through from the cosmic rays” said Pamela Conrad Ph. D, a planetary scientist at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt. “The bottom line we’re trying to get to is why is that atmosphere so thin? What were some of the processes that thinned it out over time?” The proposal and development for the MAVEN mission has been in the works for a while, Conrad said. “Once you get selected [or] funded by NASA to do the mission it undergoes what we call a mission life cycle,” said Conrad. “During this time, the instruments are being built and developed and the operations concept—how you’ll do the experiments and how often—gets developed.” The mission costs roughly $671 million, Conrad said. SUBSCRIBE TO The Sentinel! E-6 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 NEWS Teaming up to fight retinal disease By Alexis A. Goring Special to the Sentinel GREENBELT – A local organization, the Retina Group of Washington (RGW) is joining forces with the Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind (CLB) to help identify and treat people who are at risk of getting retinal disease. “There’s close to 70,000 people that are visually impaired or blind and it’s a question of how do we reach this population?” said Tony Cancelosi, president and chief executive officer. “That’s why the Retina Group partnership was so important because a lot of the patients and individuals that we see come from the state agencies. It doesn’t come from the private practices of doctors like the retina group. That’s going to open up a whole new brand of potential people that we can help.” The organizations formed the partnership in response to the pressing need to improve the percentage of people that take advantage of new and improved treatment options for eye disease, Cancelosi said. “We want to educate people to the point that there is macular degeneration that it could happen to you,” Cancelosi said. “It might not happen to everyone but it’s going to happen to some and most likely more than what we think.” The partnership will allow RGW to integrate its screening and treatment services with Columbia Lighthouse’s preventative care and rehabilitation programs in order to meet the needs of the community. Currently, Columbia Lighthouse provides services to people in the D.C./Maryland/Virginia area who are blind or have troubled vision. “The partnership is going to expand our capacity to the community,” said Cancelosi. “It will give us the opportunity to interact with them in reference to independent living skills or mobility and it will combine what we’re calling early intervention..and we can prepare them by helping them understand what happened from their blindness but also assure them that there’s a way to still be very active, proactive, still read, still participate in the community.” Dr. Mark Johnson from Retina Group of Washington said his greatest concern is for residents in Prince George’s County who are black or Hispanic, who could suffer complications from diabetes, which is prevalent in both demographics. “There’s about 17,000 or 18,000 people in Prince George’s County that have various low-vision and blindness in Prince George’s County,” said Cancelosi. Columbia Lighthouse and RGW are stepping forward with initiatives such as a mobile van to help educate and assist people who are at risk for retinal disease. “The advantage of using the van is that we can bring services to people that perhaps are getting into the office and getting out into the communities and it raises awareness and it also facilitates screening large amounts of people in short periods of time,” Johnson said. According to Cancelosi, the most important part of the relationship between CLB and RGW is the ability to create an early intervention program which he hopes will lead to starting an early intervention clinic. The clinic would be a place where when people are diagnosed, they would be able to receive travel training and independent living skills such as learning how to organize where they live, how to cook and how to dress themselves so that they can be independent. Assisted technology skills will also be offered to give patients the skills to use their computer and their smart phone. These educational services will be provided continually. “I look at it as aftercare but it’s preventive care also to give those individuals an opportunity so you don’t just go blind, there is something in place to guide you to the next step,” said Cancelosi. Services from CLB and RGW are covered by health insurance. When health insurance is not available, the organizations have access to grant funding which can cover people that are uninsured or underinsured. “The idea is to not let insurance or money get in the way of people who may have vision loss,” said Johnson.

At your fingertips www.thesentinel.com SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 E-7 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL STATE NEWS Study shows health insurance premiums may go up in Maryland By Ashley S. Westerman Capital News Service WASHINGTON – Maryland officials this week announced they would stagger the opening of the enrollment period to purchase health insurance through Maryland Health Connection, the state’s version of the Affordable Care Act marketplace. The site will open Nov. 9 for consumers to browse. They won’t be able to purchase insurance until Nov. 15. But while browsing for plans, Marylanders may find an increase in premiums for next year. That’s according to a Kaiser Family Foundation study released earlier this month that looked at premiums across 16 U.S. cities, including Baltimore. Cynthia Cox, senior policy analyst and co-author of the study, said they found costs are projected to moderately increase in all 16 cities. In Baltimore, premiums for some of the most popular plans are expected to increase. “The lowest-cost Silver Plan, and the second lowest-cost Silver Plan, which is the benchmark plan for subsidies, are actually going up a little bit,” Cox said. “But the increase is very moderate, 3 percent for Baltimore.” This means a 40-year-old, nonsmoker in Baltimore making $30,000 a year will see their monthly payment for the second lowestcost Silver Plan increase from $228 to $235 a month in 2015, before tax credits. Additionally, the study found the lowest-cost Bronze plan in Baltimore is projected to increase from $146 per month to $165 per month in 2015 – up 13.1 percent. Cox said since plans offered in other parts of the state are similar to those offered in Baltimore, a moderate increase in premiums is likely statewide. The increase could have to do with changes caused by the new health care law and even the economy, but she said premium rates rely on a number of variables and can vary from person to person. Cox said it’s difficult to know what premiums would be in the absence of the Affordable Care Act. In Maryland, there are accounts of premiums both decreasing and increasing. Tim Reyburn, 53, is the owner of Ticoscen, Inc., in Laurel, where he repairs lab equipment and other scientific instruments for pharmaceutical companies. His 20-yearold business is run by he and his wife, Angelika Reyburn, so they purchase health insurance out of their own pockets. When Reyburn heard he could get coverage through the Affordable Care Act’s health insurance marketplace, he signed up without hesitation. “Because our plans were going up significantly with Blue Cross, Blue Shield – anywhere from 20 to 40 percent a year – and we kept having to get a lesser and lesser plan to keep it on budget,” he said. “And we got up to almost $2,400 a month, $1,200 per person.” Reyburn said their premiums decreased about $7,000 a year when they switched, and now – even paying for the best plan at the full rate, with no subsidies – it’s only about $1,300 a month for both he and his wife. He said it’s nice to not have to worry about a lifetime cap or pre-existing conditions, especially since his wife has muscular dystrophy. While he’s not sure what his premiums will be for next year, Reyburn said even if they do go up, it won’t be nearly as bad as it used to be before the Affordable Care Act. A study published Thursday by The Commonwealth Fund found that 61 percent of adults who have purchased insurance through the Affordable Care Act’s marketplaces think the premiums are affordable. But Maryland Republican Party Executive Director Joe Cluster said everybody they’ve talked to has seen their health care premiums going up. “It proves that people are having to get into plans where a lot of things are covered that they might not need so the cost is going up,” he said. “And it’s just more drain on the wallets of the average citizen.” Cluster is actually losing his current health insurance at the end of the year because the plan doesn’t meet the new health care law’s standards. The cheapest basic plan he can get is $117 a month, $25 more than what he said he’s paying now. While advocates acknowledge premiums have risen, they also say more people are becoming insured and with better coverage. “We’re all better off when people have health care coverage, rather than use emergency rooms in hospitals for care, which increases all of our insurance premiums through the uncompensated care system,” said Vincent DeMarco, president of the Maryland Health Care Coalition. The Maryland Health Connection has reported insuring almost 78,700 individuals through the exchanges, but does not yet have an estimate for the second open enrollment period beginning Nov. 15. There will, however, be more carriers to choose from this time around as there are now five on the exchange, one more than last year. Maryland launches website to assist unaccompanied immigrant children By Stephen Waldron Capital News Service HYATTSVILLE – In an effort to help the almost 3,000 unaccompanied immigrant children who have arrived in Maryland this year, the state this week launched Buscando, a website designed to connect them and their caretakers with volunteers and resources. Officials from Gov. Martin O’Malley’s administration debuted the website during a press conference at the Hyattsville Branch Library on Wednesday. Ted Dallas, secretary of Maryland’s Department of Human Resources, said Buscando (which means to look for in Spanish) is the newest phase in the state’s response to the needs of unaccompanied children in Maryland. Buscando is designed to serve as a database of resources for the children and their caretakers. For example, users can type in their location and search for clothing, and a map is generated which shows contact information for nearby organizations that will provide clothes. Organizations and individual volunteers can also sign up on the website to provide materials, or services like transportation or counseling. The website was built by volunteer programmers from Code for Progress, Hear Me Code and the Tech Lady Hackathon. Aliya Rahman, of Code for Progress, said the project was a chance for programmers to use their skills to make a difference in the community. “The best technology is built for and by people affected by the issues,” Rahman said. Roughly 2,800 unaccompanied children have arrived in Maryland in 2014, the fifth largest number in the country. The children have come primarily from Central America, fleeing violence in countries like El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala. Anne Sheridan, executive director of the Governor’s Office for Children, described the project as a “labor of love.” The first challenge, according to Sheridan, has been determining what kinds of resources are useful to children and their caretakers. “We have to figure out what they need,” Sheridan said. “Then, it’s all about mechanics.” Officials also highlighted other resources for unaccompanied children, including a printed resource guide for people who do not have access to the website. The United Way of Central Maryland also operates a 24-hour 2-1-1 phone hotline, which aims to provide immediate assistance and guide callers through the Buscando website. The goal for Buscando is to efficiently deliver information and resources to the people who need them. Sheridan also said she wants children and their caretakers to know that the government is in it for the long haul. “We’re a welcoming place, and we want them to know that help is available,” Sheridan said.

The village and museum are part of the Henry Ford, a collection of attractions that also includes an IMAX theater, the Ford Rouge Factory Tour and the Benson Ford Research Center in Dearborn, Mich., a metropolitan Detroit suburb. Entering Greenfield Village, guests stroll past an operating steam or diesel locomotive as they walk to the working farms. At the Firestone Farm, workers may be tending to the animals or crops, sitting down to a family meal inside the farmhouse kitchen, or relaxing in the parlor. Further into the village, Model-Ts, high-wheeler bicycles popular in the mid-1800s through the Victorian era, a horse-drawn carriage and a 1931 Ford Model AA Bus shuttle down streets lined with historic homes. One of the historic houses is the childhood home of Wilbur and Orville Wright. Touring the home’s interior can be hit or miss, as tours are usually offered when the village is not busy. For the visitors allowed inside, a climb up the steep and narrow staircase leads to the Wright brothers’ childhood bedroom. A must-visit attraction for all ages, especially among children, is the Herschell-Spillman Carousel, erected in 1913 and still operating. Guests can ride a tiger, frog, horse, zebra, cat or dog as music plays on the historic carousel. In addition to the carousel, guests get unlimited rides on the three-mile train route, inside a vintage Model-T, in the horsedrawn shuttle or in the 1931 bus for $14. For a lunchtime break, dining at the Michigan Café gives visitors a taste of the Great Lakes State’s cuisine. The cafeteria-style restaurant features Detroit-made Faygo soda and Better Made chips, Michigan-brewed bottled craft beer, and ingredients from Michigan farms and local food suppliers. Inside Henry Ford Museum, visitors will see a large collection of trains and automobiles. Among the vehicles on display are the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile, the bus in which Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat during the Civil Rights Movement, and several presidential limousines, including the one in which President John F. Kennedy was shot. Other notable artifacts include George Washington’s camp bed from the Revolutionary War and the Ford’s Theatre chair where President Abraham Lincoln was seated when he was assassinated. Both artifacts and the Rosa Parks bus are part of the “With Liberty and Justice for All” exhibit that explores America’s struggles and triumphs to gain freedom between the Revolutionary War and the election of President Barack Obama. The museum also features a rotating exhibit on loan from other museums across the country. The upcoming exhibit, presented by the Detroit Lions, celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The exhibit runs Oct. 3 through Jan. 4 and will display the Vince Lombardi Trophy and personal artifacts from the sport’s top players of past and present. Henry Ford Museum, located at 20900 Oakwood Blvd., is open from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day except for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Admission to Henry Ford Museum costs $18 for adults, $16 for ages 62 and older and $13 for ages five to 12. Tickets are free for children age four and younger. Greenfield Village is open from 9:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. daily through Nov. 2. Then, from Nov. 7 through Nov. 30, the village is open from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday through Sunday.

E-17 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 SPORTS PHOTO BY JAKE BRODSKY Potomac High School running back Kesean Strong ran over and around defenders Saturday, including a touchdown run in the fourth quarter. The Wolverines improved to 3-0 with the 43-16 win over the Friendly High School Patriots. Potomac stays undefeated with 43-16 win over Friendly By Holden Wilen Sentinel Sports FORT WASHINGTON – In a matchup of undefeated teams, Potomac High School showed why it is a force to be reckoned with this year after blowing out Friendly High School 43-16 in front of a packed stadium. “Friendly and Potomac have that rivalry going back and forth,” said senior captain and defensive back David Rose. “They were talking trash on Twitter so we kept it quiet and we just brought it today and it was exciting.” Early on, both teams tried to outhit the other. Potomac’s (3-0) defense came up with the first big play of the game, forcing a fumble and recovering it. Seven plays later, the Wolverines took an 8-0 lead on a 12yard touchdown catch by Rose and a two-point conversion. Friendly (2-1) attempted to answer back, going on an 18-play drive that went down to the one-yard line, but Potomac’s defense came through with a goal-line stand, stopping Friendly four straight times. “Our kids showed a lot of char- acter right there because last year they probably would have scored in that situation and we would be in a dogfight,” said Potomac head coach Ronnie Crump. “This year the kids are responding at an all-time high.” With about five minutes to go in the second quarter, Potomac went up 14-0 on an 83-yard touchdown catch by Yusef Muhammad. In the second half, Potomac scored on its first two possessions to extend the lead to 20-0. Friendly finally got on the board with just under three minutes left in the third quarter on a 10-yard catch by Tre’- Vaughn Henry. Potomac answered back again to start the fourth quarter, scoring on a touchdown run by senior running back Kesean Strong, who ran over and around defenders all game long. Sophomore running back Ta’yon Fleet-Davis also scored on a 43-yard run in the fourth quarter, which excited Rose. “Every day in practice he is on the scout team offense and Calil (Wilkins) went down today so I told him you might get the ball today,” Rose said. “When he got it he made something of it. I was proud of him.” Crump said he was proud of his team, which he said plays to prove doubters wrong despite a 3-0 start to the season. “We are always going to have a chip on our shoulder. No matter how good we do we feel like we never get enough respect,” Crump said. “No matter how good we do, even if we go 15-0 and go to state, we still feel like we have to start over. It’s always been like that. People don’t want to put us in the puzzle, they want to keep us on the outside of the puzzle. That’s how we feel, no matter what year it is or how successful we were the year before.” E-18 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 SPORTS Douglass shuts down Gwynn Park 38-0 to stay undefeated By Michael Sykes Sentinel Sports UPPER MARLBORO – “And the clock is now running,” the announcer said as the Frederick Douglass Eagles celebrated their fifth touchdown of the game against the Gwynn Park Yellow Jackets with five minutes left in the third quarter. When the game ended, Douglass had its third win of the season with a 38-0 victory. Gwynn Park (0-3), which came into the season with high expectations but has now lost three straight games to open the season, finished with 13 penalties for 115 yards and could not put any points on the board. The Yellow Jackets are the latest victim of what some on the Eagles’ sideline are saying could be the best defense in school history. “Our guys had a pact this season. They wanted to be the best ranked defense—our top ranked defense that we’ve had of all time,” said Douglass head coach Julius Pinkney. “Five scores was the least amount of touchdowns we’ve given up in a season, and we’re trying to surpass that.” So far, so good because through three games the defense has not given up a point. The Eagles have outscored opponents 120-0. “Every week, we put together a game plan and we work really hard,” Pinkney said. “Giving up points is something that we’re trying not to do, and we’re not trying to get in the habit of that.” Throughout the game the defense made plays. Eagles defensive back Quentin Jordan, recovered a fumble as Gwynn Park threatened to finally reach pay dirt. Jordan recovered the fumble and ran it back 40 yards to the Gwynn Park 23yard line to put the offense in scoring position. The defense forced two turnovers in the game. Gwynn Park could not handle the Douglass rushing attack, led by quarterback Devin Butler and running backs Akiva Wedge and Mikale Makle. Butler, who finished with 97 yards on the ground and one touchdown, said playing with a stout defense makes things easier for him on offense. “It feels great to know that our defense is stronger than anybody else’s” Butler said. “I feel like we’ve got the best defense in the state. It makes it a lot easier to know that if I make a mistake they’re going to try their hardest to keep the other team off the board. It feels good to know my defense has my back--even when I make mistakes.” Butler only threw seven passes, but he completed three of them including two for touchdowns. “When I came into the game, I knew I was going to be a factor because of what we did in the playoffs last year,” Butler said. “Our offensive line worked harder than anyone else…I just thank them.” One of the reasons for the offense’s success, Butler said, was the use of five-wideout sets which allowed the running backs take advantage of gaps. Next, Douglass takes on Crossland. Butler said the team is not looking ahead of the schedule; it is just trying to get another win next week. “We just got to work harder and harder,” Butler said. “We take the games one week at a time. We don’t look at us being 3-0. We look at us being 0-0.” Pinkney said the team’s experience from going 8-3 last season is helping it to be successful this year. “Every week, we want to be 10 at the end of the week. We’ll tally it up at the end of the season,” Pinkney said. “Our focus is on that opponent. We’re not looking down the road.” Pinkney said he is happy about the win against Gwynn Park, but it is already old news to him. “I’m very happy for our guys with this win and the manner in which we won,” Pinkney said. “But at the same token, it still only counts as one game.” Capitol Christian pounds Friends of Baltimore 32-8 By Charles Abankwa Sentinel Sports LANDOVER – The Capitol Christian Warriors won their fourth game in a row Friday night after defeating Friends of Baltimore 32-8. The Warriors and their highscoring offense have averaged 36 points per game over the past two games, outscoring opponents 72-8 in that span. Capitol Christian started putting up the points early, with quarterback Reggie Robinson throwing a touchdown to Jordan Wa to put the Warriors up 8-0 after a two-point conversion in the first quarter. Robinson accounted for two more touchdowns in the half, throwing one and scoring another on the ground to put Friends away before halftime. The Warriors defense did their part as well, not allowing the Friends of Baltimore team to get any momentum going. The Warriors forced a fumble and pitched a shutout in the first half, leading 240 at halftime. Running back Davon Julien, who caught a long touchdown pass from Robinson in the first half, added another touchdown account for the only points of the second half for the Warriors with a 15-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. “My offensive line was great blocking today, opening the holes up for me,” Julien said. “They left the pocket open enough for Reggie to deliver the ball and get it to all our receivers.” Friends finally got on the board as time expired to end the game when senior running back Christian Spence scored the team’s lone touchdown from one yard out. Even after the dominating performance, Robinson said there are improvements he and his Warriors teammates can make. “We need to stop with the penalties and start jelling more as a team,” Robinson said. “We need to work on our running game some more, a scrappy running game so we can get the play action and our passes can work even better.” Capitol Christian will go on the road next week before coming home and taking on out-of-state opponents from Georgia, Delaware and Virginia. Head Coach Chuck Thompson said he is confident his passing-centered offense and all its weapons will be ready for region opponents when they come calling. “I just hope they can stop it because we throw the ball. We have fun. We do what we do,” Thompson said. “We will play whoever answers the call. We just handle our business do what we can and go from there.” Roosevelt soccer holds on to beat Bowie 3-2 By Charles Abankwa Sentinel Sports GREENBELT – The Eleanor Roosevelt High School soccer team won 3-2 match against Bowie High School on Thursday in a rematch of a playoff game last season. In the first half, offside calls plagued the Raiders while the Bowie defenders were able to maintain their lines. Bowie goalkeeper Brenden LeMaster also made several saves in the first half to keep his team in the game and frustrate Roosevelt’s offensive players. “Their keeper is just tremendous,” Kallas said. “Take the keeper out and we probably get a few more goals in there. I think the keeper makes it possible for them to pull the trap, which is really pretty.” With the Raiders’ offense unable to score, an own goal by the Bulldogs with 11:45 left in the first half gave the Raiders a 1-0 lead. Two minutes after the first goal, striker Manuel Mejicanos scored to put his team up 2-0 after one of the few mistakes made by LeMaster. LeMaster came out the box to make a save, but Mejicanos avoided him and with a soft touch put the ball into the back of the net. Forward George Lopez of Bowie scored Bowie’s first goal in stoppage time to cut the lead to 2-1 and give his team momentum going into the half. However, the momen- tum did not last long. Three minutes into the half, Mejicanos notched his second goal of the game after driving down the right sideline and scoring inside the box to put Roosevelt up 3-1. Khalid Bologun, who scored the own goal for Bowie earlier in the match, put the ball in the back of the net with 21 minutes left to cut the score to 3-2. SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 E-19 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL SPORTS Wise Pumas pummel Oxon Hill Clippers 43-12 By Ted Black Sentinel Sports UPPER MARLBORO – In a game prolonged by a bevy of penalties and incomplete passes, the Dr. Henry A. Wise High School football team eventually pulled away from visiting Oxon Hill High School 4312 in front of roughly 250 spectators. Wise (2-1) got plenty of support on both sides of the ball from a pair of players—junior running back C.J. Rainey and senior linebacker Emmanuel Akinolosotu. Rainey rushed 14 times for 199 yards and three scores, while Akinolosotu recorded three interceptions, returning one 48 yards for a touchdown. "It's all about staying focused and reading the keys," Akinolosotu said. "The coaches stress alignment and assignment and staying in your lane. I just read where their quarterback [Tony Dougherty] was looking and just stayed on him. We learned a lot in that first game [in New Jersey] and now we know what we have to do each week." Wise set the tone early by forcing the Clippers to go three-and-out on their opening possession and then responding with a short, scoring drive. The Pumas needed only four plays to go 47 yards, with Rainey going off left tackle for a 30yard touchdown scamper on his first carry of the day. But the early score hardly diminished the Clippers' confidence. On its next possession, Oxon Hill responded by marching 80 yards in 17 plays, churning nearly eight minutes off the clock. Doughety completed six passes for 65 yards on the drive, but it was running back Jeremy Fields who eventually found pay dirt when he scored from one-yard out on fourth down and goal, cutting Wise's lead to 7-6. But early in the second quarter, Wise responded with a pivotal sequence sparked on one side of the ball by Rainey and on the other by Akinolosotu. Rainey scored his second touchdown of the day when he raced untouched up the middle for an 80-yard run that lifted the Pumas to a 15-6 lead. On the Clippers' next possession, Akinolosotu intercepted a deflected screen pass and returned it 48 yards for another touchdown and a 22-6 lead. With Wise leading 28-12 at the intermission, Akinolostu and Rainey again combined to seal the verdict. Akinolosotu ended the first two Clippers' drives of the quarter with two more interceptions, then Rainey carried twice for 30 yards and found the endzone on a twoyard run for a 36-12 lead. Wise ended the drama early in the fourth with a 13-play, 67-yard drive that lasted seven minutes and ended on an eight-yard run by Quincy Crawford. "We did a lot of good things, but we have to clean up the penalties." said Wise coach DaLawn Parrish, who guided the Pumas to the Maryland 4A State title in 2012. "We probably cost ourselves two touchdowns with penalties. That's the main thing we have to correct. You can't continue to make those types of mental mistakes and expect to win close games against good teams." Oxon Hill (1-2) coach Craig Jeffries agreed with Parrish in one sense. His team would have to limit its mistakes in future contests, especially needless penalties. The Clippers put together four good drives against the Pumas on Saturday, but only two ended in scores and two others ended on Akinolosotu interceptions. "We have to take advantage of our opportunities," said Jeffries, whose team will face Eleanor Roosevelt this Saturday. "We had some good chances. We just didn't capitalize. We're still young and we have a lot of guys who are learning the system. We did a lot of good things today. But we made some mistakes that took points off the board and enabled them to score." Riverdale Baptist handles Chavez easily 40-0 By Holden Wilen Sentinel Sports UPPER MARLBORO – The Riverdale Baptist Crusaders extended their winning streak to three games with a 40-0 win over the Cesar Chavez Eagles in a game that was essentially over by the end of the first quarter. Quarterback Amir Hall completed 10/11 passes for 131 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions and the offense punted once the whole game. Defensively, the Crusaders (3-1) dominated, allowing only 18 yards of total offense in the first half. “I thought the guys played hard,” said Riverdale Baptist head coach Caesar Nettles. “It is really hard to keep your concentration when you get up like that. I was proud of our guys for continuing to fight and staying technical throughout the game.” From the get-go, the Crusaders dominated the game. After the defense forced a three-and-out on the opening drive of the game, Zech McPhearson returned a punt 34 yards for a touchdown. On the Crusaders’ next possession wide receiver Jaison Young caught the first of his two touchdown catches to put the team up 14-0. The Crusaders added two more scores before the quarter ended to take a 280 lead. Young, who finished with four catches for 70 yards and two touchdowns, said working hard in practice has made all the difference for the team since its opening-week loss against Spalding. “Coach makes us practice like it’s game time,” Young said. “It is like practicing for the Super Bowl.” Hall agreed, saying although he feels like the team should be 4-0, working harder in practice has helped the team become more disciplined after racking up 20 penalties in the opening game. Nettles said he has not changed the makeup of the team’s practices; rather the players have taken another mindset. “It wasn’t so much changing practice as it was focusing on the ADVERTISE moment,” Nettles said. “One of the things when we let that first game slip away when we were up in the first quarter, we had to get mentally tougher. We challenged them a little bit differently and put them a little bit more in situational football in practice. I think that has helped us a lot over the past few weeks. We have been doing a much better job getting off the field on third down. We basically have had three straight games with our number ones not getting scored on, on defense and that has been huge for us. We just have to keep playing consistent and aggressive while playing smart.” In the second quarter the Crusaders added two more touchdowns—a 28-yard catch by Cody in Call Lonnie Johnson at 301-306-9500 or e-mail [email protected] Wilburn and a 29-yard catch by Young—to go up 40-0 at halftime. The starters did not even play in the second half. Of all the positives from the performance, Hall said the thing that pleased him the most was not throwing an interception. In the previous game against Gwynn Park, Hall threw two interceptions resulting in touchdowns. “I told myself, no more interceptions for the rest of the season,” Hall said. “That would have to be the biggest thing for me. I made the right reads.” In their next game, the Crusaders take on St. Mary’s of Annapolis, looking for their 16th win in 17 games. E-20 THE PRINCE GEORGE’S SENTINEL SEPTEMBER 25, 2014 SPORTS Maryland picks up 34-20 road win over Syracuse By Dan Kucin Jr. Sentinel Sports COLLEGE PARK – Coming off of a devastating loss to West Virginia last week, the University of Maryland football team was primed and ready to bounce back against Syracuse University on the road at the Carrier Dome Saturday. University of Maryland quarterback C.J. Brown picked up where he left off against West Virginia and led the Terrapins to a 34-20 victory. For University of Maryland head coach Randy Edsall, the victory comes against his alma mater. “I’m just glad that we got a win. Our kids played well,” Edsall said. “…It’s hard to win at this level. For them going out there and to get a win, now me, I coached here, on both sides of it; it’s tough. Again, I’m just so proud of our guys to come out here and get this win.” Brown put up 308 total yards and scored two touchdowns which put him even with former DeMatha quarterback Scott McBrien for fifth all-time in total offensive yards at Maryland with 5,323 yards. Brown also tied Neil O’Donnell for seventh in Maryland history with 26 career touchdown passes. Brown connected with Brandon Ross for a 90-yard touchdown, and Marcus Leak for a 25-yarder. “C.J. understands that he and I always get too much blame or too much credit,” said Edsall. “He did a great job. He ran our offense and did the things that he had to do. He’s going to have a good year. We ask a lot out of him, it’s tough what we ask him to do. He’s a trooper and a guy that is a competitor. He did a lot of good things today, so I’m pleased and happy for him.” Maryland’s defense played a key role in their victory as well. Sophomore defensive back William Likely helped swing the momentum in Maryland’s favor after taking his second-career interception to the house for 88-yards. His interception gave the Terrapins an 11-point advantage going into halftime. The defense only allowed one more score for the rest of the game. “Coach (Edsall) called a great play,” Likely said. “He told me to make a play on it. Once I saw two go up the field I had to squeeze one, and that’s what I did. I was shocked, but I just saw the green grass.” The Terrapins next game is on Saturday when they take on Indiana University at 1:30 p.m. PHOTO BY DAN KUCIN JR. Maryland quarterback C.J. Brown led his team to a 34-20 victory on the road against Syracuse. The Terrapins are now 3-1.
