. Penn
bows to Northwestern dynasty
Mount St. Joseph Academy alum Chrissy Muller and Springfield High School grad Becca Edwards each scored for the University of Pennsylvania’s lacrosse team in last Friday’s national semifinal match at Franklin Field. Unfortunately for Penn and its supporters, those were the only two goals recorded by the Quakers all evening, and they occurred in the last 17 minutes of the game. Northwestern University rang up the first ten points of the contest (eight in the first half), then a pair of Penn goals sandwiched around two by the Wildcats set the final score at 12-2. Muller, a senior, got the Quakers on the board with 16:29 remaining, and Edwards, a sophomore, scored with 4:46 to go. Northwestern (21-1) went on to win its third straight NCAA title, knocking off third-seeded University of Virginia, 15-13, in the championship game on Sunday. After scoring a hat trick against Penn and adding a goal against Virginia, Wildcats senior Kristen Kjellman finished her career with a record 39 goals in NCAA tournament play.

Airy-based company, Queenie’s Pets, is part of a phenomenon gaining a toe-hold (or a paw-hold) in upscale neighborhoods around the country. That trend is the professional dog-walker/pet-sitter, once the purview of the teenager next door but now one of the fastest growing businesses in the country. CLOSE

Q: SO YOU’RE PARADING DOWN GERMANTOWN AVENUE IN THESE ORANGE JUMPSUITS TO PROMOTE ‘JIGALOO’? A: Jigaloo Lubricant. It comes from the French word “ti-gi-dou” which means “I’ve got it.” In English it was translated into a more fun name. Jigaloo is a dry silicone-based lubricant. It doesn’t have any detergents, grease or oils or wax so it doesn’t leave a sticky nasty residue. It doesn’t smell or stain.
