It's been a pretty good couple of days for Aberdeen's Jai Lewis. Last night at halftime of the Wizards' playoff game in D.C., he and his George Mason teammates and coaches were honored for their run to the Final Four (winning the regional, of course, in the same building). Today, he signed with the New York Giants as an undrafted free agent, fulfilling a real longshot of a dream; because George Mason only had club football (and coach Jim Larranaga ordered him to stay away from it), he last played the game at Aberdeen High five years ago, when he was a tight end and defensive end. Could be interesting.

Maryland's women's national champion basketball team also was honored at the game. From the looks on their faces as they walked onto the court, it appears none of them have stopped smiling for a month.
