Junior, Volleyball Coral Shores

Sofia has continued to improve and play well all year. She is such a hard-working coachable player.”

— Coral Shores coach Sam Ovalle

22 8 serve receptions

digs

Coral Shores junior Sofia Jans has been a steady contributor for the ’Canes all season and when her team needed her most, she stepped up and proved to be a force against county rivals Marathon and Coral Shores. In a pair of games for which Coral Shores was short-handed, Jans managed to help keep her team’s spirits and hopes for wins alive.

Against the Conchs, she amassed 22 serve receptions and eight digs. In her play against Marathon, the libero led the team with a dozen digs, nine serve receptions and five assists. For her dependability, stellar play and willingness to give it her all on the court for her team, Sofia Jans is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.

he Fighting Conchs spent the better part of last Friday on a school bus – more than six hours each way on their trip to and from Estero High School. That brought their total hours of bus travel to 35 over the past three weeks, making their upcoming bye week and homecoming much appreciated.

Marco Davila put Key West on the board first, kicking a field goal in the first half, and Noah Mercer ran one in for a 55-yard rushing touchdown, but the Wildcats outmatched Key West in size and speed, downing the Conchs 28-9.

“They were just more physical than us. Bottom line,” coach Johnny Hughes said. Also to the Conchs’ disadvantage were a pair of fumbles in Wildcat territory. “Ball security has not been too secure for us this year,” Hughes said. The Conchs have played some fantastic football this season but have been plagued with multiple turnovers in almost every game. Given the level of competition they face weekly, Key West cannot afford to turn the ball over if they hope to stay in the game.

As for the upcoming bye week, Hughes said, “We need it to heal some bumps and bruises.” After that, Key West will face Gateway High out of Fort Myers for homecoming on Oct. 27.

Marathon took full advantage of its bye last week to rest, recuperate and recharge. The Fins will need it for their upcoming homecoming week, a celebration packed with activities. The 2-5 Dolphins face 1-6 Gateway Charter out of Fort Myers on Friday, Oct. 20 for their homecoming game.

Coral Shores played Archbishop Carroll at home last Friday, losing to the Bulldogs 35-26. The ’Canes got off to a slow start against their highly-ranked opponent, fumbling the ball on their first offensive drive. Further dampening Coral Shores’ spirit was the loss of starting quarterback Yemcel Moreno, who took a helmet to the knee, rendering him unable to play for the rest of the game.

“Yemcel is a tough young man,” coach Ed Holly said of his QB. “For him to leave the game, it has to be pretty bad.”

Holly shifted his offense and moved Isaac Holmes to receive the snaps, a decision which helped spark the Hurricanes in the game. Dantay Diorio struck first with a 28yard touchdown run, the ’Canes’ only score of the first half.

Holmes took matters into his own hands in the second half, tossing two touchdown passes, one for 31 yards to Jamoris Davis and another to RJ Dube. Holmes also picked up a defensive fumble and ran it back 52 yards for another six points. Holly praised Holmes’ ability to calm the offense and get some points on the board.

“I’m happy with the effort the team put out. They played together and battled to the end,” Holly said, adding that Archbishop Carroll is “6-1 for a reason.” Next up for the ’Canes is Tradition Prep, a relatively new school out of Port St. Lucie.

Holly is “looking forward to the travel and playing a team we haven’t had the chance to play before. That is always exciting,” he said. The ’Canes will play the Pirates on Oct. 19 in a game which was moved to Thursday to accommodate Tradition Prep’s homecoming and senior night festivities.

KEYS WEEKLY SPORTS WRAP / OCTOBER 19, 2023

FINISH LINE IN SIGHT

O

n Oct. 11, Coral Shores and Key West runners traveled to Marathon for a rare in-county 5K race just ahead of districts. All three schools have been feeling the strain of long-distance travel, making the Marathon meet just what was needed toward the end of the regular season.

Runners started at Sombrero Beach, headed past Marathon High School to a turnaround point and finished at the start line, making for a fast, flat and scenic course.

Marathon’s Vance Bursa was first overall, running the 3.1-mile course in 16:28. Key West’s Colbin Hill was second in 18:08, while Jakub Bursa took third in 18:34. In fourth and fifth were Marathon’s Dillon Shelar and Mason Buxton, and behind them were Conchs Daniel Roy and Jerven Louis. Caleb Shelar and Adrien Holdinga of Marathon were eighth and ninth, and Coral Shores’ Nathaniel Shugarman finished 10th.

Curiously missing from the top spots of the varsity boys race was Tony Bursa, who typically trades places with his brothers on the podium. Already competing as a varsity runner in eighth grade, Tony took first overall in the middle school race held earlier in the afternoon, finishing a shorter twomile course in a blazing 10:30. Allan Taylor and Lucian Burns combined for the Marathon sweep of the first three places.

In the girls’ varsity race, Mikkel Ross of Marathon was first across the line in 22:05. Key West’s Laira Anaya was second in 23:09, followed by Ella Dunn of Marathon in third. Violet Jangraw of Key West was fourth and Coral Shores’ Kai Guth took fifth place. Dolphins Madelyn Thornton, Maeve Merryman, Rain Banks and Sara Robinson finished within a minute of one another in sixth through ninth place, with a runner from Florida Christian capping off the top 10.

Key West’s top two runners opted to sit the race out after running four races in a two-week window. Coach Keara McGraw felt that a fifth would be a little heavy for them, opting for a race on the grass in Key West later in the week.

McGraw has high hopes for the coming weeks. “Definitely excited going into the home stretch,” she said. “They’ve all been working really hard and it shows. It’s a great group of girls, and if we can keep everyone healthy, then I’m excited about our regional chances and beyond this year.”

Marathon’s Bursa and Ross win meet on home turf; Hill and Makimaa do the same in Key West

In the middle school and junior varsity girls’ race, seventh grader Rebecca Merryman crossed the line in first place in 15:10, followed by sixth grader Shaina Strama. Coral Shores’ Hayden Teal was third overall.

Three days later, Key West held a home meet at the golf course with a 5K for varsity runners and a shorter race for younger athletes. The ladies and gentlemen ran together, with Hill taking first place in an even 20 minutes. Next was Caylaa Makimaa in 20:44. Andrew Fedor was third, Roy was fourth, and Louis was fifth. Finishing in sixth overall was James Swain, then Naima Thomas in seventh. William Forster, Owen Fisher, and Wyatt Gibson finished in eighth through tenth place. Swain represented Basilica School, while the rest of the top 10 were Conchs.

As the teams make final preparations for districts, the vibe is nothing but positive.

“I feel great,” said Key West boys coach Mark Coleman. “The boys' average time yesterday (at the Marathon meet) was 21:00, which is our best average time in three seasons.”

Coleman was without his number two runner, and the team still managed to surpass his expectations. He described his team as “hungry” and “fired up,” saying they will be ready to run their best times of the season Nov. 1 at districts to hopefully qualify for regionals the following week.

Coral Shores’ young teams have less racing under their belts, but have improved greatly as the season has worn on. Coach Lyndie Myers’ girls and Gabe Suarez’s boys are making huge strides in their finishes and can expect to PR at districts on Nov. 1. Coral Shores and Key West participate in the 2A division, while Marathon is 1A. Marathon’s boys are hoping to make it to their ninth consecutive state meet but will first have to qualify in districts and regionals.

“To make it back, we have to stay focused and keep putting in the miles,” said coach Jim Murphy. His Dolphins love nothing more than to rack up extensive weekly miles, but some lingering injuries are looming over the team. “We have a couple runners that are limited to the ski machine and assault bike in the gym,” he explained. “We still have a lot of season left, and having everyone at their best come postseason is our goal.”

Meanwhile, the Marathon girls are looking to make their fifth consecutive state appearance. Head coach Darby Sheehan’s most difficult task will likely be determining who will make the cut for the team’s top seven runners. Her squad has been consistent and strong, with seniors Ross and Banks helping to set the pace for the younger athletes. Banks has made the trip to Tallahassee four times already, qualifying first as an eighth grader, and Ross has run the course one time less, due to a serious knee injury from which she has clearly recovered. Their first hurdle will be districts on Nov. 2.

Key West’s girls are the fastest team the Conchs have assembled in many years. They have a solid chance of qualifying for the big show this season. If they continue to run as a team and stay focused, their goal is within reach. Though it ultimately comes down to what their competition does on race day, the Lady Conchs have grit and positive mindsets fueling their drive to qualify beyond districts.

eys golfers had one last meetup prior to their district matches held on Oct. 23.

In their final meeting, Key West pulled ahead, winning the boys match with the low team score of 192. Coral Shores took second with 207 and Marathon was third with 216.

It was senior night for the Conchs, but it would be a trio of juniors who stormed the podium. Andrew Bassett had the best score of the day, shooting a 41. Fellow Conch Peyton Zubieta scored a 43, winning second place. In third was Derek Ramos of Coral Shores with a 47. The best Key West junior Andrew Bassett senior score of the day in the earned the top score of the Keys’ boys’ division would come final in-county matchup, shooting from Michael Merryman of a 41. ALEX BEHLER/Contributed Marathon, who shot a 48 for fourth place. Key West senior Smith Switzer was fifth with a 49. Rounding out the top 10 were Preston Carroll (51) and Tanel Irons (52) of Coral Shores in sixth and seventh, Marathon’s Mason Thornton (55) and Cullen Coleman-Sayer (56) in eighth and ninth, and a three-way tie for 10th place, with Marathon’s Dylan Ziels and Roco Piscetello shooting a 57 along with Coral Shores’ Aiden Althouse.

On the girls’ front, Marathon senior Summer Haines, likely the school’s only representative at districts, won first place with a 52. Hurricane Gabby Thomas was next, scoring a 56. Conchs Maeve O’Hearn, Althea Olsen and Parker Curry took spots three through five scoring 65, 73 and 77 respectively.

Next week, Coral Shores and Marathon will have some friendly competition sprinkled in at the FHSAA District 16 1A Championship match held at Crandon Golf Course in Key Biscayne. Key West will play at Grand Palms Sabal Course in Pembroke Pines in the 2A Championships. Teams and individuals with low scores have the chance to move on to regionals on Oct. 30 for Marathon and Coral Shores and the following day for Key West.

ey West celebrated senior night with a win against Coral Shores on Oct. 10. The Conchs defeated the Hurricanes 3-1 on their home court for some lateseason confidence heading into district play.

A makeup match two nights later against Mater Lakes did not go as well for Key West. The Conchs lost 3-0, to end their regular season with a 7-17 record. Key West elected to play a level of competition beyond what they should expect in their own division this season. A FHSAA District 4A quarterfinal matchup against Miami Killian on Oct. 17 will determine whether that strategy pays off (results not available at press time). The Conchs earned the higher seed, which came with a home court advantage for the match. The winner will go on to play Gulliver on Oct. 19 in the semis.

Coral Shores finished its regular season on the road this week, but the drive was not too terrible. The ’Canes played county rivals Key West and Marathon, splitting the matches.

On Oct. 10, Coral Shores managed to win a set against Key West, despite missing two of three middle hitters due to injuries. They closed out their regular season on Oct. 12 in Marathon. The Dolphins gave the Hurricanes a great competition, but Coral Shores came away with the 3-0 victory (2520, 25-11, 25-21). In that game, the Hurricanes were without all three of their middle hitters, forcing head coach Sam Ovalle to make some changes.

Iona Holmquist shifted her regular position and Nivaeh Howard was moved up from the JV squad to help fill the voids. “Both girls played tremendous for us,” Ovalle said. “I am really proud of them.

Iona is such a leader and team player for us. We really needed her, and she not only moved positions to help the team, but she played great.” Coral Shores ends the regular season with a 13-9 record and now looks toward the postseason.

Marathon pulled out all the stops in an attempt to upset the higher-ranked ’Canes, bringing amazing energy and playing some of their best volleyball of the season in the loss to Coral Shores. In a rematch of their September win, the Fins dropped a 3-2 decision to David Posnack Jewish Day on Oct. 10, giving them a 2-15 regular season record.

At least one Keys team will make it past quarterfinal play.

Marathon, seeded sixth, and third-seeded Coral Shores faced one another on Oct. 17 in Tavernier for the FHSAA 3A District 16 Championships (results not available at press time). The winner faced second-seeded Somerset South Homestead, a team Coral Shores beat in the regular season, the following night.

In preparation for the match, Marathon coach Kelley Cruz kept it simple, saying the “plan for districts is to see what we can fix and fix it.”

Ovalle was a bit more elaborate. “Marathon has improved so much and their crowd really brought the energy with their football team coming in after practice,” he said.

“It was such a fun atmosphere and we kept telling our girls to embrace it. It’s the way high school sports should be. We thought we were going to be hosting Keys Gate in districts, and we know Marathon will make our first round tougher.

“We challenged our student body to make sure they bring the energy Tuesday like they did in Marathon. It should be a lot of fun and make it that much more special that our first district game will also be a county rival,” he said.

ey West hosted its final regular season meet on Oct. 14. Doral Academy made the trip to the College of the Florida Keys pool to give the Conchs some fierce competition. The Conchs outswam the Firebirds in both the boys and girls divisions, and Key West piled on numerous first-place finishes and personal bests, proving they are peaking right on time for districts.

Key West’s girls swept the relay events. Katelyn Noss, Taylor Gibson, Gracie Lechnar and Aly Camargo teamed up for the top spot in the 200 medley relay, with Noss, Lechnar, Camargo and Reeghan Davis joining forces to win the 200 free relay. Davis then joined Gianna Felini, Megan Fedor and Hadley Badoni to win the 400 free relay.

Lechnar went on to win the individual 200 free and 100 butterfly races. Bardoni won two individual races of her own, the 200 IM and 500 free. Camargo took first in the 100 free, Noss won the 100 back, and Gibson placed first in the 100 breaststroke event.

The boys fared well with a relay sweep, starting with Eli Morris, Anthony Korzen, Charlie Doerfel and AJ Smith in the 200 medley relay.

Korzen then teamed up with Santiago Gonzalez, Westley Ellerbee and Jeffrey Hoyt to win the 200 free relay. In the 400 free relay, Hoyt, Ellerbee, Smith and Hugo Blinckmann finished first.

In individual action, Korzen picked up his third first-place of the meet in the 100 breaststroke event. Gonzalez won the 200 free, Doerfel won the 100 butterfly and Ellerbee won the 100 free event. New school record holder AJ Smith tried his luck at a different event, winning the 100 backstroke.

Multiple athletes logged personal best times in the races. Bardoni and Fedor set personal records in the 500 free, along with Camargo and Mary Searcy in the 100 free and Tegan Lavin in the 200 free. For the boys, Westley Ellerbee and Santiago Gonzalez and Jason Frankel PRed in the 100 free. Frankel also had a personal best in the 50 free. Thomas Horvath and Eli Morris PRed in the 100 back, Jacob Perez in the 500 free, and Devon Soni in the 100 breaststroke.

Coral Shores traveled to Miami Country Day on Oct. 10 to participate in a tri-meet against the Spartans of Country Day and the Riviera Prep Bulldogs. The Hurricanes had some fantastic finishes in their final competition prior to districts, giving them lots of hope to swim on to regionals and states in Ocala this year.

The girls 200 IM and freestyle team of Layne Smith, Abbie Sargent, Allegra Fucaraccio and Riley Cooper beat out the other schools for two first place finishes. The foursome continued to swim past their competition, earning individual wins as well. Cooper finished first in the individual 200 IM, Sargent took first in the 100 backstroke, and Smith picked up a pair of individual victories in the 50 and 100 freestyle.

The boys team also faced stiff competition but Patrick O’Donnell still managed to cruise to two first place finishes. O’Donnell won the 100 yard butterfly and the 100 yard breaststroke events.

A trip to Ocala will be the goal for both teams, but they will need to get past two more rounds of competition, starting with districts. Coral Shores will swim at Ransom on Oct. 19 for the FHSAA 1A District Championships. Divers will take the plunge on Oct. 20. 2A Key West swam their district meet at Gulliver on Oct. 18 (results not available at press time).

LOCAL SOCCER PLAYERS TAKE THEIR GAME TO THE NEXT LEVEL

T

he girls recreational and club soccer program in the Upper Keys has produced several champions and finalist medals over the last two years.

Recently, four teenage girls made it to the next level, joining Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) Academy in Miami.

Paris Saint-Germain Academy is one of the largest youth soccer networks in the world, developing highpotential players with more than 175 locations, 30,500 players and 600 coaches across 19 countries.

Key West’s Kailey Clynes, Key Largo’s Farrah Valverde, Islamorada’s Nevyn Walsh and Tavernier’s Kayla Serota all received congratulations letters from the PSG Academy after going through multiple tryouts and camps that saw hundreds of girls trying out in Fort Lauderdale and Miami.

Serota, a 13-year-old defensive standout, has been playing up two age groups on the gold level U16 team.

Both Walsh and Valverde were starters for the U15 team that played in the West Pines Tournament “Kickoff Classic” in Pembroke Pines.

Clynes moved from Key West

Four youth stars join prestigious PSG Academy shortly after being accepted, but is a starter on her new high school soccer team in Maryland.

Since 2014, Paris SaintGermain Academy Miami has been established as a reference for European soccer development in Florida, the United States and abroad. By providing training and exposure to high-level youth soccer both locally and internationally, players of all levels are given opportunities to accelerate their progress.

In 2022, Paris SaintGermain Academy initiated a development program for girls and women through FC Miami City, co-founding members of the USL W League. As a competing team in the USL W, the club provides exposure oppor-

tunities, both on and off the field, for future generations of female soccer players, and further defines a soccer pipeline for women between the collegiate and professional level.
