PRINCESS ANNE, Maryland - Say "University of Maryland Eastern Shore athletics" to the man (or woman) on the street on Delmarva and it will likely bring to mind one of two things: the two-time national championship-winning bowling team or the sorry men's basketball program.So when the Hawks volleyball team dropped its opening-round match in the NCAA tournament Friday night, not a lot of people probably noticed here.
Sure the match against UCLA didn't start until 11 p.m. in Los Angeles and was only televised on the Internet, but the fact is that many people here -- even those who have an interest in volleyball -- don't know what coach Don Metil and his staff are building in Princess Anne.
And that is a shame.
