Building on an annual tradition, Kevin Kendro, the supervisor of athletics and extracurricular activities for Frederick County Public Schools, stops by The Final Score podcast to deliver what's affectionately been dubbed The State of FCPS Athletics Address. Kendro and host Greg Swatek review the school year it was for Frederick County sports as 10 teams and more than 30 individuals won state championships over the course of the fall, winter and spring seasons. They also talk about big achievements away from the field as Carroll County Public Schools is set to join the Central Maryland Conference for the 2027-28 school year and girls flag football became an officially sanctioned varsity sport by the Maryland Public Secondary School Athletic Association after starting in Frederick County in 2023. What other big projects might be in the works for FCPS in regards to athletics? How do people feel about the CMC championship games? What's on the summer agenda leading into the start of fall sports practice in August? Kendro answers those questions as well. Prior to that conversation, FNP sports reporter Alexander Dacy is back from his week of vacation. He and Greg wrap up the spring sports season for Frederick County schools and touch on all of the state championships. They also discuss the surprising success so far of the Washington Nationals.
After Urbana High School to became the first Frederick County team to win a state championship in girls lacrosse, the coach of the Hawks, Ryan Hines, his daughter, Josey, a senior attack, and Colby Johnson, a senior attack, are this week's guests on The Final Score podcast. The trio chats with host Greg Swatek about the significance of the achievement and the significance of the breakthrough, finally getting past Broadneck after the Bruins had knocked them out in closely contested state finals in each of the last two seasons. They describe the dramatic final minute of the state-quarterfinal win over Broadneck and how the team maintained its poise and determination and positive frame of mind when the momentum of the game had switched against them, potentially setting the stage for more heartbreak. Johnson describes what it was like to sprint the length of the field and score the game-winning goal with seven seconds to play. The players and Hines also talk about finishing the job with victories over Perry Hall and Leonardtown in the state semifinals and championship game, respectively, and what the future holds now that they have achieved this remarkable feat.
After advancing to a state final for the third time in the last four years, coach Mike Frownfelter, senior pitcher Evan Zarroli and senior catcher D.J. Staub are this week's guests on The Final Score podcast. Host Greg Swatek asks Frownfelter and the players if this is the season the Hawks finally get the monkey off their backs and overcome that final hurdle and claim their first state title in baseball. Weather permitting, Urbana is scheduled to face Dulaney in the Class 4A championship game at 4 p.m. Friday at Ripken Stadium in Aberdeen. Frownfelter and the players talk about why the team is playing its best at the right time — Urbana has outscored the opposition 25-2 in three playoff games so far — and why the program has been so remarkably consistent. Tuesday's 5-0 victory over Broadneck marked the Hawks' fourth consecutive appearance in the state semifinals. They discuss a lineup that doesn't have any easy outs and a pitching staff that has consistently shut down the opposition when it has mattered most this season. They talk about what it's going to take to beat Dulaney, how previous adversity in big games has strengthened the team and what it would mean for all three of them to finally break through and claim that elusive state title. Prior to that conversation, FNP sports reporter Alexander Dacy joins Greg to discuss state finals week for Frederick County teams in baseball, softball and boys and girls lacrosse.

It marked the third straight year Middletown had beaten Century in a regional final. The discussion centers around Baker's longevity in his job and the Knights' ability to pull through and overcome adversity. Godlove talks about being a three-year varsity player, a three-time regional champ and a state champ with the Knights back in 2024. Baker and Godlove also talk about why this has been such a successful season for Middletown baseball.

Torres and Dodson also discuss why this has been such a great season for Walkersville lacrosse, some of the most memorable moments and victories along the way and the key going forward for the Lions if they are going to seriously challenge for the Class 2A state championship.

After being honored last weekend in Ocean City as the Athletic Director of the Year by the Maryland State Athletic Directors Association, Frederick High athletic director Keivette Hammond is this week's guest on The Final Score podcast. Hammond chats with host Greg Swatek about the honor and how it fittingly coincided with the state's athletic directors voting to make a sport she championed from the very beginning, girls flag football, an officially sanctioned varsity sport in Maryland just three years after its inception here in Frederick County. She talks about the growth and impact that girls flag football has made on the high school sports scene statewide and the opportunities it has generated for young female athletes. Hammond also talks about her biggest role models and influences growing up and how they helped shape her as a person, as a coach and now an athletic director. She also talks about how sports can be a great vehicle in the lives and young people and create opportunities for them that they might not have expected. Prior to that conversation, FNP sports reporter Alexander Dacy joins Greg to discuss girls flag football becoming a varsity sport in Maryland, two former Frederick County football players, Jalen Huskey and Cameron Dorner, joining the NFL as a draft pick and priority free agent, respectively, and the upcoming spring sports playoffs for Frederick County teams.

After his team produced a momentous and unusual victory over arch rival Urbana last week, Linganore High girls lacrosse coach Dean Coccia is this week's guest on The Final Score podcast. Coccia talks with host Greg Swatek about the Lancers' 9-7 victory over Urbana, the two-time reigning Class 4A runner-up. Both Coccia and Urbana coach Ryan Hines agreed to end the game with 8 minutes and 35 seconds to play because both teams were severely short-handed due to the number of yellow cards issued in the game. On the podcast, Coccia discusses why that decision was made, the way the game was being officiated and the gesture made by Hines in a game his team still had a chance to come back and win. How big of a victory was it for Linganore and how might the Lancers benefit from it going forward? Now in his fourth season on the job, Coccia also talks about the growth and development of his young team, why it is having such a strong season and his overall expectations as the playoff approach.

In this episode of the Working Perspectives Podcast, the guys bring three of the strangest current events from around the world. The rules are simple: One host reads a news story but intentionally leaves out the key details. The other two have just 4 minutes to guess the missing facts—from ages and locations to specific objects and wild statistics. On tonight's docket: Liam's Global Trivia: A guessing game involving a very specific "Top 10" list regarding women's average measurements by country. Can Matt and Bern find the countries on the map? Bern's True Crime Twist: A baffling story about a person who committed a terrible crime against their neighbor... but made sure to finish filing their taxes before turning themselves in. We try to guess the Who, Where, and Why. Matt's Medical Emergency: A hospital is evacuated after a patient arrives with a very dangerous object inserted in a very uncomfortable place. The boys try to guess the weapon of choice. Play along with us in the comments! How many did you get right?
