Bozeman, Nickelberry Among Those at P.G. Title Game

Plenty of college coaches at last night's Prince George's County championship game to see fourth-ranked Laurel beat fifth-ranked Gwynn Park, 57-50. And plenty of players for them to see. Laurel center Will Alston had 18 points and six rebounds. Gwynn Park guard Harold Washington had 23 points and backcourt mate Sean Thomas added 10. All three are likely mid-level Division I players. Washington had perhaps the most impressive night, continually attacking the basket and showing an ability to get to the rim.

I didn't get a chance to take roll, but spotted after the game were Morgan State Coach Todd Bozeman and Hampton Coach Kevin Nickelberry, both of whom know the area as well as anyone. VMI and Mount St. Mary's also had coaches at the game. Nickelberry, of course, knows Laurel Coach Keith Coutreyer and Gwynn Park Coach Mike Glick from their time together at Columbia Union College in the early 1990s.

Also, spoke to Northwestern Coach Gerald Moore earlier this week, who said that Temple Coach Fran Dunphy is expected to attend the Wildcats' playoff game Saturday night at Bladensburg to scout forward Terrence Burke.

Concerning Carl Littles article on Joe LoRusso winning the AAA State Indoor Mile.

He is not VA top miler. That honor would go to Peter Dorrel of Blacksburg who ran a 4:14 mile at the AA State Indoor Championships.
