He worksalwayshard and strives to do the best in and out of the gym. He loves working out to stay shape.”in
– Cathy Warner, head coach

On Nov. 14, Dolphin weightlifter Alex Chavala brought home the gold from Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports. Chavala competed for Marathon High School in the Special Olympics 14- to 18-year-old lightweight class. The sophomore strongman combined a 75-pound bench press with an impressive 210-pound deadlift to win the competition, securing a gold medal and respect from the rest of the competitors. For his incredible achievement and willingness to work hard and persevere regardless of any setback foolish enough to get in his way, Marathon’s Alex Chavala is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.

SWEET 16

Conchs defeat Panthers to move on in hunt for state title

Key West’s Nov. 14 regional quarterfinal victory against Cypress Lake High School did more than avenge the loss they suffered last season, bumping them out of contention for a state championship. It marks the first time since the late ’80s in which the Conchs captured playoff wins in two consecutive seasons.

Key West racked up nearly 500 yards, all on the ground, to surpass the Panthers in a decisive 44-34 win that places the Conchs in the final 16 teams in FHSAA’s 3A.

and a pair of conversions. Leo Batista had two carries for 24 yards and ran one of those into the end zone. Roman Van Loon added a two-point conversion to make it 44 points for Key West.

The one-two punch of Morin and Dejean has been a deadly combination all season for Key West, and their efforts have placed both on top of the leaderboards for the district, class 3A, and, in Morin’s case, the state.

“We played better than the score indicated,” said head coach Johnny Hughes. “We dominated more than what 10 points sounds like.”

Senior running back Walson Morin certainly dominated, racking up 341 yards and four touchdowns. Morin’s total was just 22 yards shy of Ran Carthon’s 1997 school records for most total yards in a game and most yards on the ground. Morin also rushed for a twopoint conversion in the win.

Also dominating was Jeff Dejean, who ran for 111 yards, one touchdown

Morin leads FHSAA’s 3A District 16 in rushing yards with 1,802, total touchdowns with 21 and all-purpose yards with 1,890. Dejean is second in rushing yards with 1,110, second in touchdowns with 14 and third in all-purpose yards with 1,123. Morin is second in all of 3A and fourth in the entire state in rushing yards, and with another game to go, both could climb in their rankings.

But that next game is a challenge, to say the least.

In their regional semifinal game, Key West faces a familiar albeit formidable foe in the Miami Northwestern Bulls. An Oct. 11 matchup between the two teams ended in a 56-0 rout in North-

western’s favor, which barely indicates just what a juggernaut the Bulls are. The Bulls have outscored their opponents 360-54 thus far, not including two forfeits, one of which was most likely to simply avoid playing them. Northwestern has not lost a game since midSeptember of 2024, and last week they ran roughshod over Somerset Academy in a 70-0 win.

But if anyone can topple the defending state champs, it is Key West, with their punishing offense and gritty, hard-hitting line. Morin and Dejean are scoring threats every time the ball is in their hands, and Hughes likes nothing more than to feed his backs the ball. And unlike most pass-heavy teams Northwestern faces, Key West thrives in picking up yardage the hard way, in what Hughes has often described as “three yards and a cloud of dust.”

The season’s prior loss is not detrimental to their odds, according to Hughes. In fact, he believes it will play to their advantage.

“The sense of awe is gone now and that gives us a shot,” he said. “We know we will go in there, play our game, and come home and the intimidation factor is lower this time around.”

Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 21 at Traz Powell Stadium in Miami.

SOLID GOLD Marathon Special Olympics powerlifters earn state titles

On Nov. 14, two talented athletes traveled to Orlando to compete at the Special Olympics powerlifting championships held at the ESPN Wide World of Sports complex. Junior Cindy Augustin and sophomore Alex Chavala, both representing Marathon High School, captured gold medals at the competition.

Chavala’s win was an exciting come-from-behind victory after sitting in second place following the bench press portion of the event. Chavala then cleared a strong deadlift to overtake another athlete and win the gold medal. Augustin outlifted her opponents as well to make it a pair of golds for the Dolphin power duo.

Coach Cathy Warner praised the athletes’ dedication, discipline and determination, which, she said, embody the spirit of Marathon High.

“These two athletes gave everything they had,” said Warner. “They worked hard, stayed focused and showed what it means to never give up.”

Warner’s support of the Special Olympics has been unwavering at Marathon, so it is not surprising that she, too, earned special recognition at the event. Warner captured an award for Monroe County for being an inspirational coach. Already honored as Marathon High’s Inclusion Teacher of the Year, Warner is also Marathon’s varsity girls soccer coach, with a roster that includes Augustin.

RAINING GOALS

Week two of soccer season yields high scores for Lady Conchs and Dolphin boys

In girls soccer action last week, Coral Shores traveled to South Dade on Nov. 13 to take on the Buccaneers. The match was an intense defensive battle that resulted in a 0-0 tie. Despite not picking up a win yet, the Lady ’Canes remain undefeated after a tie with Key West in their season opener.

The Lady Fins are also looking for their first win, after falling to Archimedean and Westwood Christian last week. The Dolphins lost 6-1 to Archimedean on Nov. 12. Eighthgrader Ashley Strama scored the lone goal for the Fins. Two days later, Marathon kicked off its home opener, losing 6-0 to Westwood.

Key West made the most out of their single match last week, defeating Silver Palms on the road on Nov. 3. The Lady Conchs scored eight goals in the mercy-rule victory. Maddie Kilduff netted two. Suena Marcily, Gabi Rodriguez and Lily Baxter each scored one. Baxter also assisted Lily Andrew on a goal and Capri Miner’s penalty kick cleared the goalie for another. A pass from Keirsten Tate turned into a defensive own goal to

make it eight for the 1-0-2 Conchs, who remain undefeated in early-season action.

In boys soccer, Coral Shores fell to 0-3 after a pair of losses last week. The Hurricanes visited Archimedean Nov. 10, losing 2-1 to the Owls. Maica Avila found the back of the net to score for the ’Canes. Two days later, Coral Shores hosted Marathon in a physical match that resulted in three yellow cards by the end of the game. Both teams battled it out with fantastic effort in a rivalry match that lived up to the hype.

Marathon first-year head coach Christian Saltarin shifted Tariq Simpson from back to forward for the match, a move that paid off quickly. Within the first 20 minutes of play, Simpson netted a pair of goals to stun the Hurricanes. Moments later, midfielder Giordani Prieto added a third goal to give Marathon a commanding 3-0 lead. The Hurricanes responded with a goal from Alexis Polanco Cordero just before halftime, then the defenses stepped up and prevented any further scoring for the final 40 minutes of play.

Saltarin and his Fins wasted no time in picking up their second win to even up their record. The Dolphins hosted Westwood Christian on Nov. 14, winning 9-2 in front of a delighted Marathon crowd. Adiel Nunez, Kristel Morales and Simpson netted two goals apiece. Jayden Rosete, Angel Cardona and Jossu Gomez accounted for the other three. Prieto and Alnier Mendez were credited with three assists each, with Morales assisting on one.

The Conchs also evened their record to 2-2 in the early stage of the season, winning a pair of close matches last week. Key West hosted Ferguson on Nov. 10, beating the Falcons 1-0. Owen Lindley assisted Loubins Fleuridor for the only score of the game. Fausto Paz was credited with the shutout for the Conchs. On Nov. 13, a visit to Somerset Silver Palms resulted in a 3-2 win for Key West. Fleuridor and Sebastian Camargo netted one goal apiece for the Conchs. Nico Sulak and Evens Louis were each credited with an assist. Kieran Smith also added an assist to his stats after a strong throw-in resulted in a Silver Palms own-goal, a mistake that cost them the game and secured the win for Key West.

STATES-BOUND

Three Keys schools sent athletes to compete at their respective regional championships on Nov. 14 at South County Regional Park in Boca Raton. Key West’s boys and both teams from Marathon and Coral Shores qualified for the meet after fantastic showings at districts one week prior.

Coral Shores’ Ali Wheatley placed seventh overall in her race, cruising to a 19:38 finish and a ticket to states. Wheatley earned an at-large bid to run at Tallahassee's Apalachee Regional Park on Nov. 22, making the cut in 2025 for her first appearance after missing the final at-large spot last season by mere seconds. This year, the speedy sophomore made it undeniable, securing the second of four spots allotted to individual runners.

The rest of the Lady ’Canes will cheer Wheatley on from home after finishing in 13th place overall. The top eight teams qualify, but despite missing the mark for states, the Hurricanes saw marked improvement in their times and finished their season on a strong note. Kate King finished in 22:27, followed by Aria Booton (24:36), Tess HIll (24:39), Olive Welch (24:43), Isabelle Jacobs (25:38) and Hayden Teal (26:32). Every athlete on the Lady Hurricanes’ roster will return next season to continue the success head coach Lyndie Meyers has steadily built with her program.

The Lady Fins finished 15th overall in the 1A race. Seventhgrader Molly Joly was first for the team, finishing in 32nd place with a time of 22:10. Mylana Loza (23:30) was next, followed by Ariella Dworniczak (25:34), Danaica Bessy (26:52), Kayla Skaarup (27:33), Sofia Konyk (29:37) and Natalia Perez Franco (31:07). Like the Hurricanes, every member of Marathon’s Lady Fins team will return next season under the guidance of first-year head coach Helena Bursa. Bursa stated that she could not be

prouder of her team’s improvement across the season. The Dolphins struggled to field a team in the early weeks, picking up runners along the way to finish strong.

Marathon’s boys did secure a spot at the start of the big show. The Dolphins managed their 11th consecutive qualification for the state meet by running to a fifth-place team finish. Leading the charge was freshman Lucian Burns, whose 17:20 time was good for 12th place overall. Teammate Tony Bursa was right behind Burns, finishing in 13th place in 17:28. Allan Taylor (18:08), Caleb Shelar (18:22), Anthony Vargas (19:31), Landon Anderson (19:44) and Thomas Torres (24:13) rounded out the state-eligible finishers for Marathon.

The Hurricane boys finished 13th overall, and the senior-heavy squad had big performances for their final meet of the season. Jamie Cary led the team, finishing in 40th place with a time of 18:03. Behind Cary were Garrett Gomila (19:34), Alaric Rodriguez (19:57), Tristan Rios (19:57), Nathaniel Shugarman (19:58), Adrik Gadea (20:04) and Tristan Sanchez (20:52). Head coach Gabe Suarez will have some recruiting to do in the offseason, as his entire crew except for Sanchez, a junior, and Gomila, a sophomore, graduates.

The final team to qualify for regionals was Key West’s boys. The Conchs pulled off an upset at districts to secure the final team entry for regionals with multiple personal bests, some by large margins. To drop more time was improbable, but that’s exactly what several athletes did.

Sawyer Hill was first for the Conchs, finishing in a personal-best 18:35 – a 20-second improvement from his previous record. Next was the team’s lone senior and captain, Prometheus Delacerda, with an impressive 35-second PR. Delacerda completed the race in 18:37. Alejandro Caridad was next (21:35), followed by Colin Palomino (22:27) and Charlie Delashmit (23:55). Delashmit shaved off 45 seconds from his prior personal best for a strong finish for the Conchs, who placed 15th at the meet.

Head coach Keara McGraw led both the girls and boys of Key West in what should have been a rebuild year. But McGraw’s young teams showed that despite their youth, they have what it takes to compete amongst the best.

Wheatley and the Dolphin boys have a quick turnaround this week. They will travel to Tallahassee for the state championship meet on Nov. 22 to race against the best athletes in the state of Florida.

FCONCHS CONTINUE TO DOMINATE

Key West outscores county rivals in girls weightlifting

or the third time in as many meets, Key West’s Lady Conchs bested Marathon and Coral Shores in both the traditional and Olympic weightlifting competitions on Nov. 12. This time around, the Conchs had the home gym advantage, as they hosted their county rivals for their first home meet of the season.

At 101 pounds, Althea Olsen of Key West edged out teammate Courtney Ward for first place in both events. Both athletes had total lifts of 110 pounds in the Olympic event, but Olsen’s lighter body weight gave her the advantage and the win. In the traditional event, Olsen outlifted Ward by 15 pounds.

Emily Hurt of Coral Shores took first place in the 110-pound competition. Hurt won both events and Key West’s Riley Grogan finished second.

Key West’s Cayla Moore was a double winner at 119 pounds. Moore’s 125-pound clean and jerk lift gave her a strong advantage, as that lift is tabulated in both events. In second

place for the traditional event was Mallory Hughes of Coral Shores. Sofia Konyk was second in the Olympic competition.

Ella Evans of Marathon was a double winner at 129 pounds, outlifting teammate Rilynn Richards, who finished second in both events. Evans’ bench press and clean and jerk lifts both surpassed her body weight, a mark of true strength in girls weightlifting.

Marathon senior Tinashay Cunningham won first place in both events in the 139-pound weight class. Kai Lamontagne and Ava Walker, both of Key West, shared the runner-up spots. Lamontagne was second in the Olympic competition while Walker claimed second in traditional.

At 154 pounds, Marathon’s Adelle Bainbridge was first in both events, with Karla Gutierrez taking second. Camila Linares and Evalyn Norwood of Key West claimed the top spots at 169 pounds. Linares won by just 5 pounds in the Olympic event, making it a close competition for the teammates.

At 183, Marathon’s Justice Lee Isom combined some incredible lifts to claim a pair of firsts. She benched 160 pounds, clean and jerked 185 and snatched 155 to also win the strongest lifter of the meet. Notably, Lee Isom is not throwing up her best weights in the events and will not do so until later in the season, a strategy which has paid off for head coach Jessie Schubert’s Lady Fins. In second place for both events was Key West’s Jazlyn Lyons.

Aaliyah McLeod of Key West outlifted Elaina Kerns of Coral Shores at 199. McLeod won both events and Kerns was the runner-up. In the Unlimited class, Coral Shores’ Vanessa Gabriel was a double winner. Key West’s Monea McLeod was second.

Girls weightlifting continues regular-season meets through mid-January, when district meets begin. The culmination of the season is the state championships Feb. 11-13 at Lakeland’s RP Funding Center.
