In the first week back from winter break, multiple Baltimore County girls basketball teams had at least two games, leading to plenty of incredible results from the week’s slate. Historic blowouts and close matches led the way in the five games of the week from January 5-9: Loch Raven: 74, Chesapeake: 6 The biggest blowout of the week belongs to Loch Raven, as the Raiders took down the Chesapeake Bayhawks in a 68-point win. The Raiders missed three shots in the first 30 seconds of the game, but a steal from senior Kensley Marcus led to freshman Kennadi Cloude scoring the game’s first points. From there, the team went on a twenty-point run before Chesapeake scored their first points of the game. Chesapeake’s final points of the game came on a lay-up just over halfway through the second quarter, as the Raiders went on a 34-point run in the contest’s final twenty minutes. Kensley Marcus led the scoring for Loch Raven, contributing 24 points in fifteen minutes, with Jadyn Williams adding eighteen and Jadon Conteh ten. Dulaney: 62, Lansdowne: 11 The Lions followed up a 45-point win over Randallstown with another blowout at home against Lansdowne. After several shots by both teams, Dulaney drained the game’s first points on a contested layup, and the team ran away with the game from there. The Lions continued a 10-3 run throughout the first quarter, and by halftime, the team led 34-9. The Vikings scored just two points in the second half, while giving up 28. By the end of the game, Lansdowne logged their biggest loss of the season, falling by 51 points. The Vikings’ leading scorer was senior Piper Graham, who contributed three points. Sparrows Point: 36, Carver: 32 The Wildcats traveled to the eastside of the county to take on the Pointers in what proved to be one of the lowest scoring matchups of the week. Carver clung to a narrow 8-6 lead at the end of the first quarter, but their offense faltered in the second, scoring just four while the defense allowed eleven. In the third, neither team scored double digit points, but Sparrows Point had taken a four-point lead going into the final eight minutes. With both teams tacking on eleven in the final quarter, the Pointers held a 36-32 victory. For a team with a majority of underclassmen, junior Elisah Guity led the scoring for Carver, contributing nineteen with eleven total rebounds as well. Milford Mill: 40, New Town: 33 The 31 Titans traveled to take on their undefeated rivals at Milford Mill Academy on Friday evening. The game started off with strong defense on both sides, as the two teams combined for just seven points halfway through the first. After the slow start, there were 19 points scored by the end of the first, but by halftime, the Millers clung to a narrow 17-15 lead. Milford extended the lead by two points over the next eight minutes, then another three in the final quarter, winning the rivalry match 40-33. Pikesville: 101, Owings Mills, 7 On Friday, the undefeated Panthers hosted an Owings Mills team with just one win during the regular season. It took just seven seconds for sophomore Qaidence David to score the game’s first points, and by the end of the quarter, Pikesville held a 35-0 lead. The Golden Eagles scored their first points of the game just under three minutes into the second quarter, but by halftime, Pikesville held a 57-2 lead. Owings Mills put up another five in the third quarter, but Pikesville crossed the triple-digit line with a long two-pointer with 75 seconds left, finalizing the first 100-point game in Baltimore County this season. For Pikesville, Kyndall Richardson, Mariah Jones-Bey, Qaidence David, NyJae Malikali-El, and Skylah Anderson each crossed the ten point mark in the blowout.
For most high school students, winter break is a week and a half at the end of the calendar year to sleep in, spend time with family, and relax outside of school. For dozens of athletes throughout the county, however, the break is spent on the court, sharpening both skills and team chemistry. BCPS teams participated in several winter break tournaments across the state, and here is a look at how many teams performed: Chesapeake: The Bayhawks participated in Overlea’s holiday tournament and played two games. On the tournament’s third day, Chesapeake played their first game, facing off against the Owings Mills Golden Eagles, but falling 65-56. On the fourth day of the tournament, Chesapeake fell to the Ben Franklin Bayhawks, from Baltimore City, 70-56. Dulaney: The Lions played in the first two days of the Overlea holiday tournament, facing off against New Hope Academy and their rivals, the Towson Generals. On the first day, the Lions came up short against the Tigers, losing 90-49, then going on to take down Towson in a 50-46 game. Eastern Tech: The Mavericks traveled to New York City to participate in a holiday tournament at Elmcor in Queens, NY. The first game was a 50-48 win against Queens High while the second was a 75-55 loss to Pope Francis Prep from Springfield, Massachusetts. Adrian Pefianco combined for 39 points across the two games while Brian James Jr. had twelve points with three steals in the game two loss. Following the tournament, Eastern Tech had the opportunity to attend a practice for the Hofstra Pride basketball team. The Mavericks now turn their focus to their first regular season game of 2026 against Parkville. Hereford: The Bulls traveled several hours into the mountains of Maryland to compete in the 36th annual Snowball Classic, hosted by Southern Garrett High School. On Friday night, Hereford took down the hosting Rams 37-35, with a buzzer-beater lay up from junior Joe Daw. In Saturday’s championship game, Hereford faced the North Hagerstown Hubs, falling 67-63.

In Kenwood’s annual Christmas Classic, the team lost to a senior-heavy Elkton Golden Elks team 65-35.

On Friday, December 26, the Millers could not take down Delaware’s Smyrna Eagles, with a 78-60 final score. Romeo Hart achieved a double-double in the loss, with 22 points and fifteen rebounds. On Saturday afternoon, Milford Mill avenged the previous day’s loss, as they defeated the Wagner Falcons from Staten Island. The final score in their second game was 63-60, led by Bryce Galloway who had a 36 point performance. Milford Mill then went on to face the St. Francis Panthers in a showcase. Owings Mills: The Golden Eagles were yet another BCPS team competing in the Overlea tournament, competing against the Chesapeake Bayhawks on the afternoon of day three, and the Coppin Academy Eagles on the fourth day. Their first game resulted in a nine point Owings Mills win with a final score of 65-56, but the Golden Eagles fell to the private school 54-36 on the tournament’s final day. Overlea: The Falcons expanded their annual holiday tournament, hosting 36 total teams across four days with nine games each day. The tournament also expanded to host girls basketball teams for the first time.

Towson took down the Raiders and fought back from a 25-point deficit as they lost to Dulaney 50-46. The comeback came with incredible defense, as the team came back from a 22-point deficit going into the fourth quarter to only lose by a handful of points.
Randallstown High School dominated Owings Mills High School in today’s boys varsity basketball matchup, cruising to a 71–18 victory. Owings Mills struggled on both ends of the floor, unable to keep consistent offense or slow Randallstown’s pace. Randallstown showed out offensively, energizing the crowd with multiple dunks and a steady stream of three-pointers. Leading the team, Randallstown’s #1 effectively ran the offense, creating opportunities and keeping the pressure on throughout the game, while Owings Mills players struggled to keep up with the tempo.
Franklin High School hosted and controlled the pace from start to finish in a decisive 68–20 victory over Owings Mills High School. Franklin played a smart, disciplined game on both ends of the floor, capitalizing on scoring opportunities and limiting Owings Mills’ offensive chances. Their consistent execution and team-focused approach allowed them to build a commanding lead early and maintain it throughout the game. Ultimately, Franklin’s preparation and composure on their home court proved too much for OMHS, sealing a win.

Football Action throughout the 2024 Season https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uo31RhIu4lw&list=PLmWqfzKzrHuETk_6pjFN-WJA9zCo_2gJg
Owings Mills’ recent success on the football field is still surprising to some, but head coach Travis Hall has built a consistent program that has seen county and regional success over the past few years. After an 11-1 season last year, Coach Hall knew there would be a transition period to get new players up to speed. “We have about nine sophomores, and all of them have at least spot-started this year,” said Coach Hall. Given the success the team had last year, new learned that success would not fall into their laps quickly in week one. The Golden Eagles opened their season with a loss to Reisterstown, but there were valuable lessons learned that the players took with them throughout the rest of the season. “Of course, you would rather learn with a win rather than with a loss, but that game taught them that they need to work a little harder.” Coach Hall praised the improvements the team has made in their focus and play on a week-to-week basis. The team has embraced a culture and identity built in the trenches by Coach Hall, who was the defensive coordinator at Owings Mills for four years before taking over as head coach once the previous coach stepped down. The Eagles want to control the line the scrimmage, stopping the run while running the ball effectively themselves. One of the tone setters is star senior Malachi Bryant, who played on the varsity team as a backup lineman and then earned his way to becoming a starter on the line as well as at wide receiver. His motor and work ethic defines the entire senior class. Ty Simpson, Nevaeh Elliott and Kai Holmes contributions and leadership on and off the field has been significant in some of the best years in program history. The program has always been backed by the administration, and community support is beginning to follow suit. The Golden Eagles will take on New Town in the 2A regional semifinal on Friday. Owings Mills fought back after being down twice in their week 3 game and held off New Town on the final possession to come away with a win on the road. New Town themselves are undefeated since that loss, and the game should prove to be one of the best second round matchups.
