Centennial's girls basketball team gave coach Dave Greenberg his 400th career victory last night with a 51-36 decision over host Wilde Lake, but a poor fourth-quarter left the 21-year veteran with mixed emotions.

"The goal for us to play well," Greenberg said, "and that's not happening. We're really struggling."

Greenberg, who was 323-68 in 16 seasons at Mount Hebron, including 13 county and six state titles, is the first Howard County coach and the third in the Baltimore area to reach the milestone. Former Old Mill coach Pat Chance (415-150) and ex-Western coach Breezy Bishop (424-40) are the others.
