SCHOOL’S OUT, AND SPORTS WRAP TAKES A BREAK
To our readers:
This edition marks the close of the 2024-25 athletic year with the Keys Weekly Sports Wrap. Thanks to the talents of our local writers and photographers, with the support of coaches and athletic staff from Key Largo to Key West, we are incredibly proud to serve as your most comprehensive source for prep sports coverage and photography in the Florida Keys.
With the school year coming to a close, the Sports Wrap will again be taking a short break for the summer to allow our staff to rest and recharge before an exciting fall season under Friday night lights.
Over the next two months, this section will look a bit different. Instead of weekly prep sports content, the pull-out insert will include a variety of content including comics, games and puzzles, many of which our readers have asked for or told us they enjoyed in the past.
We haven’t forgotten about a few of our All-Keys teams from the 2025 spring season, which we will celebrate as they are completed within the pages of our regular editions during the month of June. And when practices resume in August for fall sports, we’ll go right back to the full-blown Sports Wrap coverage our readers have come to love and expect.
So … enjoy the summer, let us know your feedback, and always: Go ’Canes, Fins and Conchs!
Sincerely,
The Sports Wrap Staff
ATHLETE OF THE WEEK
KEEFE
To come into that situation with a team loaded with returning
– Ed Holly, Coral Shores head coach
ON THE COVER
Rising junior Sterling Keefe took his first snaps as Coral Shores’ new quarterback in their spring jamboree, and any concerns as to whether he was ready were put to rest last week. Keefe is a multisport athlete who, according to ’Canes coach Ed Holly, committed himself to getting stronger and improving as a player in the offseason.
The results were apparent in Coral Shores’ snaps against St. Brendan, a team returning most of its starting lineup. Keefe led the young Hurricanes with poise and positivity, setting the tone for an exciting fall season. For facing a trial by fire and proving he has what it takes to lead his team next season, Coral Shores’ Sterling Keefe is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.

MEET THE 2025 ALL-KEYS BOYS WEIGHTLIFTING TEAM
Marathon and Coral Shores programs gained in strength and popularity this season
Monroe County has just two boys weightlifting teams, and this year, both earned a district championship. The Dolphins and Hurricanes share an Olympic title and Marathon won the traditional title outright. Between the teams, there were five district champs winning a combined eight titles, 32 regional qualifiers, two regional champions and four bids to the state meet. Three athletes returned home with medals from the state championships, and two of those athletes return to the weight room next year for another season of lifting.
by Barry Gaukel, Doug Finger and Jackson Garcia.
Marathon’s Tanner Ross “has been a pillar of work ethic and excellence on this team,” said Jessie Schubert, Marathon head coach. Ross captured double district gold, then a pair of silver medals at regionals, advancing to the state championships. The two-year state qualifier holds the school record in snatch and secured a pair of FHSAA top-10 finishes, placing ninth in traditional and winning a sixth-place medal in Olympic lifts.
Senior Damian Stasiewicz made his mark at districts, bringing home a pair of gold medals, then followed up at regionals with a gold in Olympic and silver in traditional. He earned a trip to states to cap off his senior year and finished in seventh place in Florida’s 1A in Olympic lifts.

Matthias Martinez-Velez
JUNIOR, MARATHON
139-POUND WEIGHT CLASS
“Don’t let his size fool you, he lifts heavy,” said Schubert. Martinez-Velez was the district champ in traditional and runner-up in Olympic lifts, and struck gold again at regionals in the traditional event while finishing fourth in Olympic. The junior strongman earned a spot at states and came home with a fourth-place medal in traditional lifts.
After a year away from the sport, junior Tyler Bettner was back in 2025. “He has increased his strength significantly and finished third in the region for the Olympic (lifts),” said Hurricanes coach Erin Hamilton. “He is always focused on learning, growing and getting better.” At districts, Bettner won silver in traditional and finished fourth in Olympic, and at regionals, he added a fifthplace finish in Olympic to his bronze in traditional.
Max Childress
JUNIOR, MARATHON 183-POUND WEIGHT CLASS
“Max works hard and dreams big,” said Schubert of the focused junior. Childress’ dreams came true when he won a medal at states for his fifth-place performance in the traditional category of one of the toughest weight classes. His state medal followed up double district gold and double regional silver finishes, and with another year of gains ahead of him, Childress might as well be dreaming in solid gold.
Senior Sebastian Diaz finished fourth in Olympic and sixth in traditional at the district meet in a competitive weight class, but his strong performances at the bar were not his only contribution to the team. “Sebastian was our captain this year. He was an amazing leader and helped our new lifters significantly,” said Hamilton.
Roland Gonzalez
JUNIOR, MARATHON 183-POUND WEIGHT
CLASS
Despite it being his first year in the sport and falling in a highly-competitive weight class, junior Roland Gonzalez held his own this season.
“Roland was picking up steam at the end of the season and is looking to make a bigger impact next season,” said Schubert. Gonzalez finished third in traditional and fourth in Olympic lifts at districts, qualifying for the next round, where he placed eighth in the traditional category at regionals.
Praised for his team-mindedness and positive attitude, Coral Shores senior Zane Rindom brought home a pair of bronze medals from districts and followed up with two eighth-place finishes at regionals. His team spirit was described as an asset that will be sorely missed.
Isaak Vallejo
SOPHOMORE, MARATHON 199-POUND WEIGHT CLASS
Schubert praised Isaak Vallejo’s improvement in his second season on the team. “Isaak has improved and landed in the top 40 in the state, just shy of the big stage,” he said. Vallejo finished second in traditional at districts and third in Olympic, then placed ninth in both events at regionals. The steadfast sophomore hopes to make enough gains in the offseason to punch his ticket to the big show in Lakeland.
JUNIOR,
In his first year as a competitive weightlifter, Coral Shores junior Aaron Lykins made a statement this season. Lykins finished with dual district runner-up finishes, then earned a silver in Olympic lifts and bronze in traditional at regionals. His gains over the season set the tempo for a stellar upcoming senior campaign.
Ian Newton SENIOR, KEY WEST POLE VAULT
Ian Newton placed 10th in pole vault his junior year, then went on a mission to improve. His hard work paid off. Newton struck gold first at districts, where he outjumped the closest competitor by well over a foot. He won at regionals by besting the second-place finisher by over three feet. Newton captured a state championship by clearing the bar at 15’3”, a personal best for the senior and half a foot better than anyone else in the meet.
Senior Peyton Zubieta captured a bronze medal at districts in javelin and matched that place a week later at regionals. His top throw earned him a bid to states, where he brought home a seventh-place medal to complete his high school career on a high note.
Shane Lavallee SENIOR, KEY WEST JAVELIN/SPRINTING
Senior Shane Lavallee was Key West’s fastest 100-meter man this season, but it was a throwing event at which he excelled most. Lavallee brought home a silver medal from districts in javelin, then did the same at regionals, qualifying for states with his best toss. The talented senior won a bronze medal at states in javelin to end his final season in style.
Jeremiah Harvey SENIOR, KEY WEST JAVELIN
Senior Jeremiah Harvey placed fourth in javelin at districts and brought home the same medal at regionals. His regional finish was good enough to qualify for the state championships with an at-large bid. At states, Harvey stepped up to the podium in sixth place, securing a medal and an impressive finish to his senior campaign.
MEET THE 2025 ALLKEYS BOYS TRACK AND FIELD TEAM
Runners, jumpers and throwers build a field of dreams
MJunior Noah Mercer won a district championship in discus and added a bronze medal in shot put, qualifying for regionals in both events. There, he placed third in discus and fifth in shot put. Mercer made the cut for states in discus and finished fourth in the event, for which he holds Key West’s school record.
Senior high jumper Malachi Telisma capped off his high school track career with a trip to states. His third-place regional jump was high enough for an at-large bid to Jacksonville, and Telisma was just a half-inch shy from the school record. He finished in second place at districts, earning a silver medal.
onroe County’s boys track athletes made the most of the 2025 season, amassing an impressive haul of medals. Coral Shores had one district champion and set multiple new records while Marathon sent two athletes to the top spot at the podium. Key West had four district champs and swept the gold medals in throwing events. The Fins sent two boys track athletes to states while the Conchs filled the vans with seven, all competing in field events.

Vance Bursa Mikail Marshall
SENIOR, MARATHON DISTANCE SENIOR, MARATHON SPRINTER
Distance specialist Vance Bursa capped off his high school running career with one final trip to states. While most of his competitors focused on one of the longest races, the relentless runner not only ran both, but qualified for states in the 1,600 and 3,200, where he finished 16th and 14th, respectively. Bursa struck gold at districts in the 3,200 and silver in the 1,600. At regionals he placed third and fifth in the events.
Alaric Rodriguez
JUNIOR, CORAL SHORES MIDDLE DISTANCE
Coral Shores junior Alaric Rodriguez is an all-purpose track athlete, posting respectable times in races from the 200 to the 3,200. Rodriguez finished third in the 800-meter run at districts, then fourth in regionals, narrowly missing a bid to states. Rodriguez broke the school’s 1,600-meter record and is part of the school-record 4x400 relay team. This year, he tried the 400-meter intermediate hurdles and broke that record, too.
Mikail “Jay” Marshall added a district championship in the 100-meter dash to his track credits this season, then placed fifth at regionals. Marshall’s time earned him a bid to states, where he finished 13th. Marshall holds the school record in both the 100- and 200-meter races.

Xavier Johnson
JUNIOR, CORAL SHORES HURDLES
Xavier Johnson’s 110-meter hurdle time did not just earn him a district title; he now owns the Hurricane record in that event. The junior hurdler’s smooth form helped him cruise to a finish nearly two seconds faster than the silver medalist in the high hurdle race.
“When I'm not working, I enjoy playing Dungeons & Dragons, creating art through embroidery and playing with my Corgi. I am looking forward to marrying my best friend this October in Islamorada. My favorite element of working for Regan Roth Insurance is the relationships I get to build with my clients. Every call is a chance to help make their day easier.”
LESSONS LEARNED
Coral Shores and Key West use spring football to test their schemes and athletes
CORAL SHORES
Coral Shores had plans to test their young team against a pair of opponents in their annual spring jamboree. Scheduled to play were St. Brendan School and Miami Beach High, but a last-minute change of plans from Miami Beach gave the ’Canes exactly the sort of work coach Ed Holly was looking for. St. Brendan and Coral Shores spent one half of football playing in the typical style, then the teams turned the second half, in which they would have played Miami Beach, into a situational scrimmage.
“We wanted to find out who we are as a team this spring, and we did that,” Holly said. “We wanted to get reps, get experience and get playing time. The spring is for getting the guys excited about playing football.”
If anything gets a team fired up about the season, it’s playing in front of a charged crowd. The annual senior parade preceded the ’Canes’ spring jamboree, making for packed stands and spectators lining the fences. The Hurricanes lost a majority of their starters from 2024, and many of the younger team members spent the spring learning new positions. The team kept it basic this spring, focusing on a smaller number of base plays to build from later.
Their numbers looked good, according to Holly, and the team has a lot of fresh talent from which to draw come fall. Holly praised rising junior Sterling Keefe, who will take over as quarterback for the Hurricanes. Joining Keefe on the gridiron as likely starters in fall will be Ekon Edwards, Austin Vogt, Glade Harrelson, Nick Calveron and Casey Konrad, who Holly said all stepped up and had fantastic springs. Defensive standouts included Marco Gudino, William Roberts and Andres Alvarado.
Now that the Hurricanes’ spring is complete and the team knows who will fill which roles, the real work begins. “We will work this summer so we have what it takes to compete in fall,” said Holly. “Now’s the time to get stronger and faster.”
When asked what the team’s goals are this fall, Holly was clear: “Scheme up and put it all together,” he said. “Our goal is the same as it is every year: be FIFC conference champions.” Coral Shores met that goal in 2024 by earning a Florida Independent Football Conference championship after a stellar 8-2 season.
KEY WEST
Key West’s long-standing tradition of playing an intrasquad scrimmage each spring was put on pause this year. For years, the Conchs’ spring season culminated in a red versus white scrimmage, at which spectators were asked to bring laundry detergent to stock the team for the coming season. This fall, the Conchs will need to hit the sales for their laundry needs, as the team answered the call of Somerset South Homestead, who lost their spring opponent.
Key West traveled to the mainland to play against the Hurricanes in four quarters of modified football. Each team was able to test their offense and defense, but no special teams play was included.
Key West head coach Johnny Hughes said his team’s goal for the spring was “to see what we have.” After losing key players to graduation, the Conchs’ top priority was to see who stepped up to try and fill the gaps. The largest gap was left by Jaden Fox, whose relentless power runs were such a destructive and disruptive force
that the Conchs had portions of their offense molded around him.
In his absence, the team made some modifications and ran enough plays to find out that the talent was there, as Jeff Dejean and Walson Morin ran all over the Hurricanes. “Those two can score any time they touch the ball. They just have to stay healthy,” said Hughes.
Key West must take special care of its athletes, as most players, as on all Keys teams, need to play both ways. “I was surprised how many guys Somerset dressed,” said Hughes, who went on to say that the Hurricanes had separate crews for offense and defense. Key West, on the other hand, played their best athletes on both sides, something Hughes admits is not ideal but, rather, a necessity.
One of those top athletes for the Conchs is Chase Gaertner, who took turns with Roman Van Loon taking snaps at quarterback. Just which athlete will be QB1 is still up in the air, but Gaertner’s performance on defense likely sealed him a starting spot there, for now. At free safety, Gaertner picked off a pass and ran it in for a touchdown.
At quarterback, Gaertner showed strong athleticism, but Van Loon had an edge with the experience he got last season while filling in for an injury. Also making the list of standouts was Jakobe William-
son, who took care of the team’s load-blocking and showed a lot of promise as a rising sophomore at H-back.
Hughes had plenty of praise for his experienced offensive line, which is loaded with high-caliber athletes including Noah Mercer and Josh Johnson – both fresh off medals at the track and field state meet. The pair hold school records in throwing events – Mercer in discus and Johnson in shot – demonstrating the fortitude of the Conchs’ offensive line.
“Our O line did great,” said Hughes. “They can carry us far this year. They rolled people all day.”
With many of the questions the Conchs’ coaching staff had about the upcoming season answered, several things will still need attention.
“We need to work on the backfield,” said Hughes. “We need to work on our depth chart, too. We have to get the number twos ready to play.”
Hughes also listed open-field tackling as an opportunity to improve. The Conchs’ depth chart, at least, may have a partial answer in the team’s youngest athletes. Fresh from the Horace O’Bryant team, the rising freshmen will be tasked with stepping up on at least special teams to give the two-way crew some breaks.

Justice Lee
JUNIOR, MARATHON THROWING EVENTS
Marathon’s Justice Lee owned the throwing events, striking gold three times at districts. Lee won three more medals at regionals, with a gold in shot put, a silver in discus and a bronze in javelin. At states, she took eighth place in javelin, third in discus and second in shot. Lee owns all three school records in the throwing events, and with another season, could be the most decorated track and field athlete to hail from the Keys.
Hurricane harrier Ali Wheatley won a district championship in the 3,200-meter run in her first year as a varsity track athlete, then claimed silver at regionals. Her second-place finish qualified her for the state meet, where she placed 17th. With three seasons of eligibility remaining, Wheatley has all the talent and work ethic to make even bigger waves in the future.
Ava Merryman
Ava Merryman started competing in pole vault as a middle schooler in the first year the Fins added the event to their track and field repertoire. Since then, Merryman has steadily improved and owns the school record, one she set herself multiple times in the past five years. This season, she added a silver district medal, bronze regional medal and a seventh-place medal from states to her collection.
Daysi Williams
JUNIOR, MARATHON HIGH JUMP
Junior Daysi Williams brought home a district championship in the high jump this season and has another season of competition left to take her talents back to the state championships, where she medaled in her freshman season. Williams holds the school record in high jump and is also a talented sprinter.
Audrey Smith
JUNIOR,
EVENTS
Junior Audrey Smith made a showing in all three throwing events, earning district gold in the discus and javelin events plus a silver in shot put. Smith placed fourth, fifth and 12th in the same events at regionals. Her throws were strong enough to qualify for a pair of at-large bids to the state meet, where she earned a fourth-place medal in javelin and finished in ninth place in discus.
SOPHOMORE,
Coral Shores’ Julieanna Oddo placed second in the 100-meter hurdles at districts this season, punching her card to regionals, where she set a new personal best and shaved half a second off her district finish time. Just a sophomore, Oddo returns for two more seasons of PRs for the Hurricanes.
Hurricane Sammy Bates raced to a second-place finish at districts in the 800-meter event. Her time broke Coral Shores’ 10-year-old school record and qualified her for regionals. There, Bates finished in a respectable 10th place.
Key West sophomore Jordan Greene had an impressive day at districts. The speedy sophomore finished fourth in the 200, fifth in long jump and third in triple jump. Her finishes in the 200 and triple jump earned Greene a trip to regionals in the events.

MEET THE 2025 ALL-KEYS GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD TEAM
Putting in miles brings home the medals this spring
After her phenomenal performance at states in cross country earlier this year, Key West’s Caylaa Makimaa continued to be a top finisher in track and field. Makimaa finished first in the district in the 1,600, ran a leg of the winning 4x800 relay and placed second in the 3,200. At regionals, she was seventh in the 1,600 and third in the 3,200. At states, Makimaa finished 15th to cap off a fantastic high school running career.
Monroe County’s girls track and field teams each enjoyed success this season, with top finishes in multiple field events for Marathon and Key West plus broken records on the track for Coral Shores. The Hurricanes sent one athlete to states to compete on the track, while Marathon sent two to represent the Keys in the field. Key West mixed things up with one runner and two field participants qualifying for the big show.

Junior Kelly Cardona-Quiche earned a district championship in the 100-meter hurdles this season. Cardona-Quiche placed fourth in the 400-meter hurdles as well. Her district gold qualified her for regionals, where she finished with a personal best in the event.
Ariel Newton SOPHOMORE, KEY WEST POLE VAULT
Multitalented junior Colleen Barter brought home a silver medal from districts in the high jump and placed sixth in long jump. Barter also ran a leg of the Lady Conchs’ district-champion 4x400 relay. She went on to place sixth at regionals in high jump.
Sophomore Ariel Newton won a district championship in pole vault and finished second in the 200-meter dash, qualifying for regionals in both events. She secured a regional championship in pole vault, then went on to the state championships, where she came in 10th. Credited for her work ethic and pure athleticism, Newton has the potential to be the next Conch pole vault gold medalist in the coming two seasons.
