Pumas duo score 22 points in victory over Flowers in Summer Madness play - The Prince George's Sentinel

June 16, 2019: Wise Kejuan Frager shoots a three pointer during Summer Madness Basketball League action between CH Flowers HS and Wise HS in Largo, Maryland. Photos by Chris Thompkins/Prince Georges SentinelTheir excellent play benefited from a different game plan established by Wise Assistant Coach Dale DeBerry Sr. It allowed them to address their flaws from previous summer league games while still being competitive.“The last time we played, we got outrebounded a little bit,” said DeBerry. “Our emphasis today was to dominate inside offensively and defensively. It’s summer ball. We don’t get to practice a whole lot, so we just have to be on point with defending and rebounding.”While the Pumas found an offensive rhythm, Flowers rising senior Brian Brooks kept the game close early on by knocking down two consecutive 3-pointers. However, Thomas connected a transition layup at the buzzer off a bounce pass from Daemond Ford to give Wise a 10-point lead heading into halftime.“I think we played hard for the most part,” said Thomas. “We got some adjustments to make like to value the ball more, myself included. My mindset is just to destroy whoever is in front of me, get my teammates motivated and make everyone around me better.”After transferring from Archbishop Carroll High School this summer, Thomas is set to become the new face of the Pumas. The rising sophomore said it has been a good adjustment so far with summer league play allowing him to get together with his new teammates and coaches.Thomas arrives with much fanfare, playing with Team Loaded D.C. in the AAU circuit and th... https://pgs.thesentinel.com/2019/06/19/pumas-duo-score-22-points-in-victory-over-flowers-in-summer-madness-play/

Perspective | This D.C. florist's secret to surviving 114 years and four generations - The Washington Post

They lease 2,600 feet across two buildings separated by a driveway instead of owning the buildings. “People say, ‘Gosh, why don’t you put a shop in Virginia? Why don’t you put one in Maryland?’” Mike said. “The thing about this is we like to have control over the product and the employees and everyone. That way, you can take care of your quality. If you start branching out more and more, then you have more headaches.”Boxes of flowers come in the back door, and beautiful arrangements fly out the front. Besides the trucks, they have some refrigerators and a computer. “With flowers, you want to move those out two, three days after you get them in,” Mike said. “It’s not like food where you can put it in the freezer. You want to keep that product moving.”The Washington economy does its part.“You are insulated by being in D.C., between the government, the individual businesses and the law firms,” he said. “We have been at this location since 1968. The rents keep escalating. I try to get in as long a lease as I can. I signed one a couple of years ago for 10 years.”[A first lesson on the stock market: Don’t run from a good sale]Mike’s brothers, Tim and Steven, split responsibilities.
