HOLUSHKO
Sophomore, Key West Wrestling
Maria just continues to get andbetter is proving that she’s one of the best wrestlers in the state of Florida.”
— Conchs head wrestling coach Chaz Jimenez
Key West’s Maria Holushko is doing big things this season through relentless dedication and a work ethic that refuses to waver. The Lady Conch wrestler embraces a grueling training schedule and does whatever it takes to chase championship standards. Competing in one of the toughest districts in the state, Holushko finished as district runner-up before following it a week later with a regional runner-up finish to punch her ticket to the state tournament in March. With a dominant 25-4 record this season, she continues to prove that hard work shows up on the mat. For her phenomenal gains and commitment to the sport of wrestling, Key West’s Maria Holushko is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.

POWER AT THE PLATE
Marathon softball starts with a W; Key West blasts three homers
Catcher Madelyn Thornton leads the Dolphins in just about every hitting stat available after a big three-hit game last week.
NATALIE DANKO/Keys Weekly
I9709 Overseas Hwy. Marathon, FL 33050
Office: 305.743.0844 www.keysweekly.com
t’s been a hot start to spring for the Florida Keys’ three softball squads.
Marathon started the season with a win over Immaculata-LaSalle on Feb. 17. The Lady Fins dispatched the Royal Lions in just five innings via mercy rule. Anastasia Boose went the distance in the circle, striking out nine batters, walking one and giving up five hits over five innings. The Fins racked up seven stolen bases and six hits with three – a triple and two singles – off the bat of junior Madelyn Thornton. Elianys Roque tripled and Sara Robinson and Shaina Robinson each singled in the 17-2 victory.
Four days later in Key West, Arianna Garcia’s three-run homer in the second inning broke things open as the Lady Conchs picked up steam and rolled over the Warriors of Westminster Christian, 7-2. Maicee Gage added a solo shot in the same inning to stretch the lead beyond the Warriors’ reach. Garcia added a second hit, a single, in the sixth inning. Lucy Katz had a pair of hits and Shylo Sanchez, Kaleya Cervantes and Kaleaya Dickerson added one apiece. Brianna Brenner struck out eight in seven innings, walking one and giving up eight hits in Key West’s first win of the season.
Later that afternoon, the teams squared off again, this time with a different result. The Warriors came out swinging, pulling ahead with a three-run lead after the first inning. Westminster kept the pressure on until the end, winning 10-5 over the Conchs.
Chloe Kongos and Cervantes had three hits each and Williams, Sanchez, Dickerson and Maicee Gage added one hit each. Lilee Gage had a solo homer in the sixth, but 11 Conch hits would not be enough to overcome a determined Warriors team. Ryleigh Harnish handled the pitching in game two, striking out five, walking five and surrendering a dozen hits over seven innings.
Coral Shores won their season opener against Somerset South Homestead in a clash of the ’Canes. Coral Shores won 19-16 against the other Hurricanes in the Feb. 19 contest.

DYNASTY ROLLS ON
Conch wrestling streak stretches to 17 district championships; Holushko punches ticket to states
On Feb. 20, South Florida’s best 1A wrestlers converged on the Southernmost City for the District 16 championships. When the final bout was complete, Key West’s trophy case was a bit more crowded, with their 17th consecutive first-place finish.
In addition to the team title, the Conchs saw a pair of individuals crowned with district titles. Michael Guzman (165 pounds) defeated two opponents via technical fall, piling on the points on his way to the podium. Allens Alexandre made short work of his final opponent, pinning him in under 30 seconds for district gold.
In second place were Kyle Condella (138), Jacob Ferguson (126), and Donald Kirkpatrick (113). Angel Morales (175) and Aristerne Richardson (106) brought home bronze and Jaylyn Annylus (144), Kascper Kowalik (215) and Prometheus Delacerda (132) finished in fourth. All 10 will advance to regionals at Cardinal Gibbons this week.
Coral Shores finished fifth overall, but took more titles home to Tavernier. Three Hurricanes stood in the top spot on the podium and nine wrestlers advanced to regionals with top-four finishes.
David Beltran won the 175-pound division. Beltran, a state qualifier last season, looks primed for a return to Kissimmee this year. Joining him as a district champ are Gavin Matheis (132) and Sebastian McCoy (120). Both athletes pinned all their opponents at districts and have what it takes to make it all the way to the big show this season.
Sterling Keefe (157) and Nathaniel Tristram (150) were district runners-up and will have a shot in the next round, as will third-place finishers Jeramiah Ortiz (144), Jack Brown (165) and Ethan Struhs (138). The final Keys regional qualifier is Ricardo Mack, a freshman who finished fourth in the 190-pound competition.
Marathon, in its first year of varsity wrestling, brought three athletes to the event, two of whom were middle school students. Despite the obstacles, the Fins finished in eighth place, picking up 18 points in the final meet of their inaugural season.
The following afternoon, two Keys athletes represented Monroe County in the girls wrestling Region 4 1A championships. Maria Holushko of Key West and Marathon’s Autumn Wolfe earned their spots in the brackets with outstanding
district performances earlier this month.
Holushko punched her ticket to states after amassing a 3-1 record at regionals, defeating two opponents by fall and claiming the runnerup spot in what is easily the toughest region in Florida. Holushko did not lose until the title match, to the same athlete who defeated her at districts. The sophomore sensation will represent the Southernmost City in early March at Silver Spurs Arena in Kissimmee at the state championships.
Wolfe’s first-round loss gave her a tougher path at regionals, but the resilient sophomore won her next two matches to keep her hopes of a state berth alive. A second loss at the tournament, however, meant Wolfe’s first year of varsity wrestling ended at regionals.

STRONG START Upper and Middle Keys lifters begin the long road to states.
With the girls weightlifting season officially complete, the gentlemen are picking up the pace on the long road to their own state championships in early May. Last week, the Hurricanes blew into Marathon on Feb. 18, picking up dual wins against the Dolphins. The ’Canes outscored the Fins 52-30 in the Olympic competition, then 54-28 in traditional lifts.
Coral Shores’ Nick Brown (119 pounds), Kyle Derobertis (129), Tyler Bettner (139), Jake Companioni (169), Aaron Lykins (183), Fredy Flores (219) and Mason Aussubel (238) were dual winners at the event. The athletes won both the Olympic and traditional competitions.
Coral Shores’ Jacob Franks won the traditional event in the Unlimited category, splitting with Marathon’s Trevor Wofsey, who won the Olympic event. In the 154-pound class, Marathon’s Matthias Martinez-Velez won the Olympic event while Coral Shores’ Kevin Gonzalez had the upper hand in traditional.
Marathon’s lone dual winner was Max Childress, in the 199-pound category. Childress and Martinez-Velez were state qualifiers in 2025, and Lykins, Bettner and Roberts were close after strong regional finishes last season.

STORMING THE COURTS
Lady ’Canes improve to 3-1 after pair of wins last week
On Feb. 17, the Lady Hurricanes swept Keys Gate in a resounding 7-0 win on their home tennis courts. Emma Sogegian, Allyson Rosendale, Kaiyenna De Ron, Harlee Beler and Jillian Thiery won in No. 1 through 5 singles. Sogegian and Rosendale added a win in No. 1 doubles, then de Ron and Beeler won in No. 2 doubles for the clean sweep.
Two days later, Coral Shores headed south for a matchup against Marathon. In girls action, Emily Alvear of Marathon started things off with a win in No. 1 singles. After that, it was a storm surge, with the remainder of the wins coming from Hurricanes.
De Ron, Beeler, Thiery and Parker Kelly won in No. 2 through 5 singles. Thiery and Kelly then won in No. 1 doubles while Vanessa Gabriel and Emily Rosu took the W in No. 2 doubles for a 6-1 win for Coral Shores.
Marathon’s boys dominated Coral Shores in the matchup, winning 7-0. Tanner Snowden, Matt Delgado, Graham Murphy, Kase Daughtry and Eduardo Garcia all picked up singles wins. Snowden and Delgado teamed up for another win in No. 1 doubles while Murphy and Daughtry did the same in No. 2 doubles.
The Royal Lions of Immaculata-La Salle were a royal pain for Key West in a Feb. 17 contest in Miami. La Salle defeated the Conchs 7-0. The boys fared better, with a pair of wins from Andrei Lehene and John Picco in No. 1 and 2 singles.
Coral Shores takes a break in the tennis match against Marathon Feb. 19.

BATTLE TESTED
Keys lacrosse teams prove themselves on the turf
The Lady Conchs hit the road on Feb. 18 to play a talented Lourdes Academy lacrosse team, which came out with a vengeance. Key West knocked Lourdes out of contention at districts last season, giving the Bobcats the fuel they needed to overcome the Conchs.
Mavis Bishop scored three goals and Colbie Turner netted two. Adriana Dall was credited with an assist and the team collectively picked up 19 ground balls and caused five turnovers, but it was not enough to overcome Lourdes, which ultimately won 11-5.
On Feb. 21, a visiting St. Cloud High School was overwhelmed early with a flurry of Conch scoring. The 16-3 win was truly a team effort in which even the newest members played a role. In all, Key West won 29 ground balls and caused a dozen turnovers. Turner won 10 draw controls, caused two turnovers and snagged an interception. The senior captain also scored five goals. Bishop scored six and was responsible for six of the team’s ground balls, five draw controls, three caused turnovers and an interception.
“It was a beautiful game on our part, great transitions, lots of hustle to get the ball back. Everyone got to play and everyone contributed in one way or another,” said Conchs coach Marissa Giacopuzzi, whose team stands at 2-1.
The Lady ’Canes also stand at 2-1 after a win and a loss last week. Coral Shores lost to Palmetto 16-3 on Feb. 18 on the road, but won against Keys Gate at home in an impressive 13-0 shutout.
Boys
The boys of Coral Shores improved to 5-1 after a pair of wins at home last week. Both wins were against district opponents, a testament to the strength of this year’s Hurricane squad. On Feb. 18, Coral Shores defeated Westminster Christian 9-3 in a contest that was closer than the score indicated for much of the game. Five unanswered fourth-quarter goals spelled disaster for the Warriors, though, and a fantastic display in goal by Brock Bynum for the ’Canes gave Coral Shores the win. Bynum had 18 saves for the Hurricanes to anchor the defense.
Offensively, James Mitchell led the scoring with five goals. Finn McDonough netted two and Christian Gonzalez scored one with two assists. Zane Martinez added one goal and three assists to the team total. Feb. 10 was a much more lopsided matchup, as the
Hurricanes delivered a 20-2 loss to Keys Gate. Mitchell, Gonzalez and Martinez all racked up multiple goals, while Theo Shugarman, Andres Alvarado and Bynum scored their first varsity goals. Jace Jackson netted one goal and was crucial in the faceoff circle along with Connor Daniels.
“We were happy to pick up a couple district wins last week,” said Hurricane head coach Chris Carrow. “The boys played a very gritty game against (Westminster).” He added that the team has two big games this week, including Coral Reef and Belen Jesuit.
Key West’s boys kept their perfect record intact with a pair of wins last week. The Conchs won 10-7 at Coral Reef on Feb. 17 despite a limited roster. The goal-scoring was spread around, with Raffael Rice and Kieran Smith leading the charge with two each.
Mateo Lopez was outstanding in goal, saving 17 and keeping the Conchs in the game. “Mateo was key in keeping us ahead with countless saves when we needed them most,” said coach Alberto Piceno.
Piceno was also pleased with Smith’s play on both sides of the field, praising his athleticism, grit and strong understanding of the game. The game ball, however, went to Rice, whose faceoff wins helped tip the odds in favor of Key West.
The Conchs then defeated Cardinal Gibbons 9-4 on Feb. 20 to move to 3-0 this season. Carlo Vernieri led the charge with six goals, while Sawyer Hill added two and Max Louchheim accounted for the final goal against Gibbons. Owen Dougherty was credited with two assists while Lopez added 15 saves.
Vernieri received the game ball in the home opener, despite feeling under the weather. “Carlo, who is always looking to involve everyone and create for others, took it upon himself to give us six much-needed goals,” Piceno said. “He wasn’t feeling 100%, yet he did what was necessary to help us get the win.”
FAST OUT OF THE GATE Hurricanes track stars make a statement in season opener
Just one week into the season, Coral Shores’ track and field team set the tone at the 2026 Southridge Spartan Invitational. This year’s event included hundreds of athletes from 38 South Florida high schools, making for some stiff competition. Three Hurricanes were up to the challenge, placing in the top 10 at the meet.
Sophomore Ali Wheatley wasted no time hitting her stride. Wheatley raced to a third-place finish in the 3,200-meter run, finishing in 11:32. That beat her prior personal best by more than a second. Wheatley was a state qualifier in the event as a freshman, and if her performance last week is any indication, she is on her way to medal this season.
Alaric Rodriguez finished ninth in the boys 800-meter race. The senior distance specialist crossed the line in 2:04. Julieanna Oddo started her junior season off with a personal best. Oddo finished 10th in the 100-meter high hurdles, completing the race in 18.26 seconds.
Coral Shores’ Ali Wheatley CONTRIBUTED
1. Owen Dougherty (1) and Carlo Vernieri (4) scramble for a loose ball. 2. Owen Dougherty (1) takes a shot on goal. 3. Raffael Rice (21) wins a faceoff against Cardinal Gibbons Feb. 21. 4. Reif Wallen (3) reads the field for his next move. TRACY
Prep baseball bats heat up for big wins across Keys BARRELS BLAZING
Tested by South Florida rivals, Monroe County baseball squads continued their winning ways last week.
Key West’s Kade Maltz and Xavier Perez both went 3-for-4 at the plate against Monsignor Pace on Feb. 20, fueling a frenzy of 11 hits to defeat their longstanding rivals with conviction. The Conchs outhit the Spartans 11-4 to help avenge a midseason loss to Pace last year.
Donovan Thiery put in five innings of work, striking out nine, walking two and surrendering just two hits. The Spartans were unable to pencil in a single run against the FSU commit.
The win ended a 17-year drought for Key West against the Spartans, in a rivalry which has spanned more than half a century. The Conchs last defeated Pace in 2009 in a playoff game at home after losing to them twice in the regular season.
On Feb. 22, a visiting St. Brendan School held their own against the Conchs until late in the game. Maltz started on the mound and did not surrender a single run, effectively shutting down the St. Brendan School offense.
The bats were sleepy for both sides, however, until the sixth inning, when the Sabres strung together four hits and a pair of walks to take a 4-0 lead over the Conchs. But Key West had a clear answer for St. Brendan. In their half of the sixth, the Conch bats were wide awake, and six hits and some strategic sacrifices helped the Conchs pile on eight runs. Key West held down the fort in the seventh inning to preserve the win. Perez and Thiery each added a pair of hits, including one double apiece. Nelson Ong smacked a pair of singles and Maltz, Kristian Masters and Jackie Niles accounted for the rest. Key West was perfect in the field and the win preserved their perfect 4-0 record.
Marathon traveled to Fort Lauderdale on Feb. 16 to take on the Sharks of NSU University School. The Sharks took an early lead and never let up, ultimately winning 5-1. Roco Piscetello, Dylan Williams and Massimo Quargnali had the only hits against the Sharks, and Gabriele Cirina had an RBI off a fielder’s choice. Cirina and Piscetello shared the pitching duties, putting in three innings of work each.
Two nights later, the Fins were at home against the Warriors of Dade Christian. The Dol-
phins took an early lead after Cirina homered over the right-field fence for a 1-0 lead. That would keep the Fins in the lead until the fifth inning, when both teams managed two runs. Dade Christian took over in the sixth inning, adding a pair of runs, then added three more in the seventh to end the game 7-4 in favor of the Warriors. In addition to Cirina's bomb, Quargnali, Andrew Suarez and Piscetello each logged a single. Williams started on the mound, spanning five innings and striking out seven, walking three and surrendering four hits. Piscetello and Jack Chapman put in an inning of relief each in the loss.
The Fins returned to their winning ways Feb. 20 in a display of patience against the visiting Berean Christian Bulldogs. The game was scoreless until the bottom of the fifth, when the Fins scored three runs, then piled on eight more in the sixth to apply the mercy rule to the Bulldogs.
Chapman had three hits, including a triple, while Suarez and Buigas added two hits each. The Fins’ bats were hot, amassing 11 hits to the Bulldogs’ one. Miscues did not help Berean; the team piled up seven errors to compound the effects of Marathon’s heavy hitters.
Cirina struck out eight, walked four and surrendered no hits and just one run in five innings of work. Chapman closed out the final inning for the 3-2-1 Fins.
Coral Shores kept an even record last week, with one win and one loss. The loss came at the hands of Dade Christian, which bested the Hurricanes 9-4 on Feb. 17. In their home opener, Emileano Barrios logged a pair of hits while Riley O’Berry, Maykol Bonito, Mason Clark, Keller Blackburn and Andy Cone added one apiece to the team’s total of seven hits. O’Berry pitched three innings while Barrios, Cone and Jack O’Keefe chipped in for relief.
On Feb. 19, a road trip proved more fruitful for the Hurricanes. Glade Harrelson started on the mound for Coral Shores, giving up two hits and no runs over 3-1/3 innings of work. Harrelson struck out three and walked five. O’Berry was 2-for-4 while Bonito, Clark, Barros, Cone and Mailon Aguilla had one hit each. The 5-4 win put the Hurricanes at 2-2 on the season.
Marathon’s Gabriele Cirina currently stands in third place in Florida in RBIs with 13. He is 16th nationally and is first in 1A Rural as well as FHSAA’s Rural District 8. JUSTICE LEE ISOM/Keys Weekly
