Greyhounds lead the pack

From The Sun's Stefen Lovelace:

Gilman has been the No. 1 boys lacrosse team in the area for a month now, but they've finally climbed to the top of the mountain in the national rankings as well. The Greyhounds are No.1 in this week's insidelacrosse.com poll.

This is really no big surprise. Gilman is still undefeated in the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference, which is regarded as the top conference in the nation. They've just come off a week where they beat No. 3 Calvert Hall, 10-7, and routed No. 2 Loyola, 17-7.

They have scoring weapons all over the field and an unheralded defense that has played well most of the season, and Harvard-bound junior midfielder Jack Doyle has to be considered the favorite for Player of the Year thus far this season.

Gilman's (15-0, 8-0) reign at No. 1 won't be easy as their first game in the newly minted top spot comes against No. 4 St. Mary's (13-3, 4-3), a tall and strong team stocked with football players.
