Periodically, I like to use my space here at PressBox to plead with you to expand your horizons as a Baltimore sports fan.
While the Orioles and Ravens are the dominant forces that bring local sports fans together, it is my contention that the heart of Baltimore sports can be found elsewhere. Sometimes that's a high school football game or a minor league baseball game. Other times it's a Coppin State-Morgan State basketball game or a Towson-Johns Hopkins lacrosse showdown.
This month provides you another unique opportunity to celebrate local sports in a way more meaningful than another trip to a downtown stadium.
