Maryland swipes one of Minnesota's best hoopers
Minnehaha Academy senior guard Addi Mack had been considering a number of Big Ten programs, and she announced Tuesday that she will play college basketball at Maryland next season.
A 5-8 four-star prospect and the No. 2-ranked recruit in Minnesota’s Class of 2025, Mack took official visits to Maryland, Michigan, Northwestern and Wisconsin. The Gophers were not among her final schools.
Mack averaged 32 points as a junior for Minnehaha Academy last season, while also becoming the fifth-fastest girls player in state history to reach 3,000 career points. With a 53-point performance last season, she led the Red Hawks to a third-place finish in Class 2A after beating Crosby-Ironton and Gophers commit Tori Oehrlein.
At the top of the state’s 2025 class, Maple Grove guard Jordan Ode committed to Michigan State and is expected to sign with the Spartans to begin the early national signing day period Wednesday. Ode and Mack were AAU teammates with the Minnesota Fury this summer.
MARYLAND (WBFF) — It’s that time of year again — spotted lanternflies have made a comeback across Maryland and most of the eastern U.S.
Spotted lanternflies typically hatch in late April and early May, meaning juveniles of the species are popping up around the state. The Maryland Department of Agriculture predicted in March that Baltimore City and central Maryland counties will be heavily infested with the pests.
The invasive insect has been present in nearly all of Maryland since 2018 and was previously thought to have caused ecosystem harm. But recent studies on the insect’s assimilation into its environment have shown that the lanternfly has caused no large-scale damage.
“This is mainly just a nuisance pest,” Emily Zobel, University of Maryland Extension’s agriculture and food systems agent for Dorchester County, said. “[The spotted lanternfly] is big, it’s kind flashy, it’s a little intimidating, but studies have shown that in residential gardens and landscapes, it doesn’t do any significant damage to otherwise healthy plants.”
