Excited to announce that beginning in a couple weeks I’ll be the new high school sports reporter for @HoCoTimesSports, part of the Baltimore Sun Media Group.
I can’t wait to get started sharing the great stories of Howard County athletes.

I never thought I would see this day or hear these words.
For the first time in 53 years, the New York Knicks are NBA CHAMPIONS!!!!!

Howard high graduate Desmond Armstrong is a trailblazer.
Thirty-six years ago, Armstrong and Jimmy Banks made history as the first two U.S-born Black men to play in a World Cup.
Ahead of the USMNT debut tonight, here’s a peak into Armstrong’s journey.

Want to know how and why the Knicks have 13 games in a row, watch this possession.
Can’t teach connectivity and cohesiveness like this, true definition of a TEAM and a TEAM win.

Girls flag football is rapidly expanding throughout Maryland, a microcosm of the sport’s growth nationally.
@Mikephowes, @taylorjlyons and I took an inside look at that accelerated participation and how it’s reached this point.

Teamed up with @Mikephowes and @jacobstein23 for a look into the growth of high school girls flag football in Maryland. With help from the Ravens, most counties have hopped on. But some hold out because of funding concerns. baltimoresun.com/2026/05/27/…

Girls flag football in Maryland is no longer an experiment.
After starting with 10 Frederick County schools in 2023, the sport will become an MPSSAA-sanctioned state championship sport in 2026-27.
How it grew — and which counties are still waiting.
Story with @taylorjlyons and @jacobstein23:

A masterpiece of a profile from the incredible Wright Thompson.

Patrick Ewing's Knicks played 153 playoff games over 15 seasons. If you combine the margins of victory from their 7 biggest wins over those 15 years, it adds up to 171 points.
The current Knicks have won their last 7 games by a combined total of 185 points.
Unprecedented.

.@MarylandWLax has firmly established itself as one of the top programs in the nation during Cathy Reese’s 20-year tenure.
Throughout that time, the program has created a pipeline from Howard County to College Park.

Marriotts Ridge senior Abbi Livay was diagnosed with B-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia on Dec. 29, 2023.
Last Wednesday, 846 days later and the day after her 18th birthday, Livay rang the bell to signify the end of her cancer treatment.

If you read one thing today, make it this excellent piece by Steve.
High school sports are truly the lifeblood of local communities and to see that potentially totally wiped away in a New Jersey town is both sad and terrifying

It seems impossible, but it's true: My N.J. town has to raise $176,000 to keep a proud high school sports program from crumbling — and, in the process, maybe save my daughter's athletic career. If it happens here, it could happen in your town. Column:

Howard County still utilizes a contracted model for high school athletic training.
Marriotts Ridge senior Junie Ro is advocating for a change.
“When it comes to safety, that shouldn’t be optional,” she said. “Safety is not considered a luxury.”

This is awesome, something these student journalists will remember forever. Kudos to Coach Martelli for taking the time on a national stage to recognize their hard work.

Really cool moment tonight postgame after VCU upset UNC. VCU head coach Phil Martelli Jr. made a point to shoutout the student reporters that made the trip.
Lots of great stuff this time of year, but this was a really awesome, genuine exchange.
