University System of Maryland names building for Hoyer
The University System of Maryland will name the largest building at the University System of Maryland at Southern Maryland, or USMSM, in St. Mary’s County for retiring U.S. Rep. Steny Hoyer, honoring his decades of public service in the region and to public universities in the state. The SMART Building at the campus in California will be known as the Steny H. Hoyer University System of Maryland at Southern Maryland SMART Building. The 84,000-square-foot facility nearly doubled the educational footprint of USMSM when it opened in 2021 and houses both academic and research spaces. SMART is an acronym for Southern Maryland Autonomous Research and Technology. “Congressman Hoyer was a driving force behind the SMART Building,” Jay A. Perman, University System of Maryland chancellor, said in a release. “His advocacy attracted tens of millions of dollars to the region and placed a national asset — in robotics, AI and autonomous systems — in St. Mary’s County. It’s just one example of the attention and investment Steny Hoyer brought home to Southern Maryland over his decades at the highest levels of U.S. leadership and just one example of how he’s strengthened this community he cares for so deeply.” Hoyer earned his bachelor’s

Warriors rout Bennett, stay unbeaten
EASTON — Easton High’s high-octane offense has deservedly drawn plenty of attention this season with its big-play potential every time the ball is snapped. The Warriors defense has also shown a knack for the big play, and Friday night that unit delivered arguably its finest performance of the year Jordan Horsey returned an interception for a touchdown for the second time this season, and Easton recorded four sacks — two by Nevin Whitaker — en route to a 42-0 homecoming shutout of James M. Bennett at Warrior Stadium. “Just through this week of practice we focused on doing everything right,” said Horsey after the Warriors improved to 5-0 with their first shutout of the season. “And we came out today and put out a good showing. Defense executed well.” Easton scored touchdowns on four of its first five possessions in the first half for a 27-0 lead. That edge was bumped to 33-0, when Horsey, a senior inside linebacker, picked off Clippers quarterback Harrison Moore and romped 35 yards into the end zone for his second pick-six of the year with 6 minutes, 47 seconds remaining before halftime. “My team puts me in a position to make a play, and
