BANGOR - When members of the Bangor Band tuned up for the opening ceremonies of the 2010 Senior League World series at Mansfield Stadium on Saturday evening, they faced a challenging program.
Five national anthems were on the agenda, one for each country represented in the ballgames. "The Star-Spangled Banner" and "O Canada" are old standbys, said Bangor Band president and principal trumpet player Lori Wingo. Italy's "Il Canto degli Italiani" (The Song of the Italians) and Aruba's "Aruba Dushi Tera" (Aruba Precious Country) have each been on the program once before, she said.

The story of Singapore is a story of people who overcame challenges and transformed a small port city into one of the most prosperous nations on Earth. Many of you have parents or grandparents who remember riding ox carts, and now fly across the oceans from one the world's most modern airports. Some learned four national anthems over their lifetime-Britain's, Japan's, Malaysia's, and finally, Singapore's.

I have no idea what kind of product the Dragons will trot onto the field this season, but I do know that the national anthems will be quality. I judged a contest at the Dayton Mall for potential Star- Spangled Banner singers (no, I didn't wear a "Simon" name tag). There was plenty of talent, and if you're a regular at Fifth Third Field you'll love the World of Wonder choir.
Win to get in: The only way slumping UD makes it to the NCAA tournament is to win four straight in the rugged Atlantic 10 tourney. The journey begins with a play-in game, which UD should win. I think. But don't count on the Flyers getting lucky in Atlantic City. This bunch is destined to clank away in the NIT.
