at the plate

High school baseball players can be under enormous pressure even in regular circumstances. Add to that the high-stakes reality of every game for a perennial contender like Key West, and it can become next-level pressure.

When senior Anthony Lariz was handed the ball last Saturday night to pitch against Spanish River, a team the Conchs had lost to one night prior on March 1, the young man became a superhero. After the tragic loss of Conch baseball legend Dexter Butler earlier that morning, Key West made the difficult decision to play the game, knowing that it was what Dexter would have not just wanted, but expected. The big righty held the collective weight of the entire island’s hopes to win it for Dexter in his hands.

And win, he did. Lariz threw a complete game, striking out 10 batters for the Conchs. He was perfect at the plate, walking twice and driving one of Key West’s 5 hits. He was perfect in the field, delivering an error-free performance on an extraordinarily difficult night. Under unimaginable pressure, Lariz did not fold; he and his team somehow managed to deliver the impossible to the grief-stricken community and won it for one of their own. For his composure at the plate and on the mound, Anthony Lariz is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.

KEY WEST’S GREATEST HITTER REMEMBERED

Conchs’ coach and teacher left behind legacy of positivity and selflessness

The Key West community suffered an enormous loss last week with the passing of teacher, coach and athletic legend Dexter Butler. Butler was not simply a coach or a former player or a record holder – he was a truly special individual whose broad smile and kind heart touched everyone fortunate enough to meet him.

Most recently, Butler was coaching the Conchs’ hoopsters in a rebuilding year. The good-natured coach had exactly the perfect balance of patience and discipline to push his young team in the right direction. Under Butler’s leadership, the Conchs gained momentum, and the coming seasons were truly exciting to anticipate. Now, it is difficult to imagine anyone filling Butler’s shoes.

Before Dexter Butler was a coach at his alma mater, he was a typical Key West kid, playing at the junior football field, Clayton Sterling Complex and the Police Athletic League gym. He was a standout athlete in any sport he tried and often enjoyed the coaching of his father, Conch legend Bill Butler. The pairing not only afforded extra father-son bonding time – it gave a ringer to each team the duo graced.

When Dexter got to Key West High School, he was in the shadow of his father and his brother Devin. Devin owned a state championship with Conch baseball, and Bill had won a title in basketball. Even with such great expectations for a young athlete, Dexter did not remain in the shadows long. He started out at Key West playing football, basketball and baseball, quickly becoming a standout in all three.

Dexter gave up basketball early in his high school career, then stopped playing football after his junior season. He wanted to focus on his best sport: baseball. During his three years as a Key West Conch varsity player, Dexter won two district championships. Known for his strong bat, he once hit two home runs in a single game and hit a grand slam in another one. Butler owns the Key West record for the highest career batting average. During his three-year varsity stint, he averaged .460, a mark which will likely stand for a very long time.

After high school, Butler played ball at the University of South Florida, where he started at shortstop as a freshman. The following year, he played third base. As a junior, he moved again, starting at second base. For his final season, he transferred to Nova Southeastern, where he split the season at shortstop and third base, proving his ability to roll with the changes and be undeniably great anywhere his team needed him.

Butler was similar in his role in the community, filling any role needed and doing so with grace and positivity. “Dexter always had a smile on his face and something positive to say,” said Judd Wise, who both taught and coached Butler. “He was a great athlete and a better person.”

Key West administrator and track coach Dave Perkins agreed. “Whenever I spoke to Coach Dexter about basketball, he always stayed positive,” he said. “Even though his team was rebuilding, he always kept everything focused and his team moving in a positive direction.”

Butler’s greatest moments arguably came after his own athletic career was complete. He coached various sports, including Little Conch baseball teams, middle school basketball at Horace O’Bryant School, where he taught, and varsity basketball at Key West High. Butler also spent his time giving hitting lessons to the children of Key West who looked up to him the way he had looked up to others growing up.

When Butler took over the Conchs’ basketball program in 2022, all the coaches up and down the Keys knew: Key West basketball was back – it was just a matter of time. Coach Butler immediately started to put in the time with his team, dedicating himself to them. In the offseason, tournaments and training became the norm. Butler believed that putting in the work was important, but he also held his team to a higher set of ex-

pectations. Butler served as a strong moral compass for his players, believing that making them responsible young men was as, if not more, important than sharpening their basketball skills.

It is not often a coach, player and human being such as Dexter Butler comes along, but it seems that when one does, we often take for granted that they will grow old and continue to give so generously of themselves.

Now, at a time when the community is hurting, we need to embrace the teachings coach Butler offered and be the best we can be in sports and in life. Dexter Butler now becomes an all-time legend in Key West, joining the ranks of such revered Conchs as Tommy Roberts and Glynn Archer. He is gone too soon, but his legacy will remain and continue to grow as those whose lives Dexter touched reach out and share their time and talents with others, just as he did.

HURRICANE HUNTERS

Lady Conchs defeat Coral Shores at home; boys suffer first loss

Key West’s girls had split results in their two lacrosse games last week, starting with a Feb. 27 loss to Archbishop McCarthy. Colbie Turner scored 2 goals while Maeve O’Hearn, Eisley Whitehead, Ava Brock and Kaitlyn Piloto netted 1 goal each for the Conchs. Goalkeeper Courtney Grabus had 11 saves in the loss.

On March 1, Key West hosted cross-county rival Coral Shores in The Backyard. The Conchs pulled off a 7-6 victory over the ’Canes in an exciting showdown between the Keys’ only girls teams. Senior captain Brock led the Conchs with 3 goals. Taylor Gibson netted a pair and Piloto and Turner scored 1 each. Low defender Maeve O’Hearn came up with 4 ground balls to keep the Conchs on the offensive. Ella Bishop scooped up 4 ground balls as well, something head coach Marissa Giacopuzzi called, “game changers in a tight game.”

Giacopuzzi described the win as “much needed,” crediting it in part to some big plays and dominance in draw controls and adding that Turner and Bishop, with 3 draw controls each, helped seal the win. The team’s combined 5 caused turnovers kept the Conchs in control while Grabus had 6 saves and a pair of huge interceptions in the 7-6 win. A third game scheduled for Saturday afternoon against Miami Country Day was canceled. The Lady Conchs’ next home game is a district matchup against Gulliver Prep on Friday, March 8 at 4 p.m.

Key West’s gentlemen played one last week, facing the Mavericks of Archbishop McCarthy on Feb. 27. The Mavericks handed Key West their first loss of the season in a closelyfought 8-7 battle. Smith Switzer led the Conchs in scoring

with 4 goals. Switzer had 6 ground balls to his credit as well. Noah Collins netted 1 goal and assisted 2 more along with 5 ground balls and 4 takeaways added to his season stats. Joseph Garr scored 1 goal, scooped 7 ground balls, earned 3 takeaways and forced 7 turnovers. Max Louchheim scored the Conchs’ final goal and was credited with 4 ground balls. Reif Wallen assisted on 1 goal while Eddie Moline grabbed 5 ground balls and Ryan Kight had 3 takeaways. Goalkeeper Mateo Lopez helped keep things close, saving 7 shots on Key West’s goal.

Key West remains unbeaten in district play and has a chance to add three more district wins in the coming weeks against Ransom, Westminster and Coral Shores in a rematch Tuesday, March 12 in Tavernier.

HURRICANES BLOW CONCHS OFF COURT Lady Conchs blank Fins at home

In Keys boys tennis action, Coral Shores swept Key West on Feb. 27, with wins coming from the entire ’Canes team. Makani Burga, Aidan Althouse, Johann Smith, Erik Moerner and Corden Dean all won their singles matches. Burga and Althouse, plus Smith and Moerner, teamed up in doubles action to add another two wins for Coral Shores.

The Conchs were the big winners the following day against the traveling Marathon Dolphins. Adrien Holdinga was the lone winner for the Fins, while Key West’s Martin Burnett and Devon Soni registered singles wins for the Conchs. John Picco and Burnett also won the only doubles match against a short-handed Marathon.

In girls tennis, Coral Shores defeated Key West on Feb. 27. Key West’s Gabriela Aguero won the No. 1 singles match and Leyla Atilla won the No. 5 match for a pair of Conch wins. Olivia Hughes, Kai Guth and Kai Redruello all registered ’Canes wins in singles while Charlotte MacEachern and Hughes, plus the duo of Guth and Redruello, teamed up for two wins in doubles for Coral Shores.

The following day, Key West hosted Marathon for a clean 7-0 sweep of the Fins. Eva Drozdetskaia, Gabriella Aguero, Leyla Atilla, Juliana Strunk and Violet Jangraw won in their singles matches. Drozdetskaia teamed up with Zoe Gehin to win the first doubles match while Aguero and Strunk won the second. All three teams will become more familiar with each other this week.

CONCHS OVERCOME ODDS TO WIN IT FOR DEXTER

Dolphins go 3-3 in second week of baseball action

When the Key West community needed them most last weekend, the Conchs pulled through on the diamond.

Key West played three games last week, starting off with a road win over NSU University School on Feb. 27. The Conchs needed an extra inning to defeat the Sharks, but racked up 13 hits in the win. Roman Garcia earned some extra bases with 4 total. The freshman’s bat came alive with a pair each of singles and doubles. Nelson Ong had 3 hits and Sam Holland and Jose Perdigon each had 2. Xavier Perez and Steel Mientkiewicz accounted for the final 2 hits. Jacob Burnham got the start and struck out 4 over 3 innings. Anthony Lariz, Felix Ong and Christian Koppal all pitched in to finish off the Sharks in the 3-2 win.

On March 1, the Conchs were back at home, hosting Spanish River High School. A trio of errors cost the Conchs dearly in the 5-2 loss. Noah Burnham, Jacob Burnham, Nelson Ong, Perez and Perdigon each had a base hit. Jacob Burnham started on the mound, striking out 6 in 6 innings, and Christian Koppal finished the game.

The following morning, the Coconut Telegraph was abuzz with the tragic news that Key West had lost one of its own. The accident that took Dexter Butler’s life robbed his family and the entire community of one of the kindest, most dedicated souls the island has known. Butler’s legacy was larger than life and he shouldered it with unassuming ease. He owns a spot in the top 10 greatest hitters to ever stand at the plate in a Conchs uniform and owns the school record for career batting average.

game, it wasn’t even a question for many of those who knew and loved Dexter and supported his family. The game was important, not for a team whose quest for a historic 12th state title was on the line, but for a grieving community with no idea what to do next. So they did what Conchs do: With the blessing of Butler’s family, who were consulted before the game, the island poured into the Rex Weech complex to watch the Conchs play for redemption against Spanish River, for a shot to stay alive in the title hunt and for a much-needed reprieve from the grief of the entire community.

Prior to the game, longtime Conchs radio announcer and Key West sports fixture Judd Wise was asked how he was going to be able to call the game. Wise, who, like so many other community members, is close to the Butler family, answered, “Very quietly.” During the game, Wise was, indeed, much quieter than usual.

Anthony Lariz started on the mound for Key West, tasked with the impossible. “Anthony Lariz pitched the game of his life,” Wise said. Lariz threw a total of 107 pitches, just three shy of the limit which would have retired him to the dugout and necessitated a reliever. He fanned 10 batters over 7 innings, walking 2 and allowing 6 hits. The team combined for a total of 5 hits, 2 from Garcia and 1 each from Lariz, Sam Holland and Perdigon, who doubled. Down by 2 in the first inning, the Conchs somehow held their composure and battled back one play at a time to win for Butler, his family and every proud Conch fan. The 3-2 score did not reflect the enormity of the night.

“The boys played their hearts out,” said Wise, “and we forgot about life for a while. For about two-and-a-half hours we cheered, roared and played. The win was for coach Butler. He was there cheering with us as you can feel it. We needed this.”

Marathon added three wins to its record last week, bringing the Fins to 5-1 on the season. The first game was Feb. 26 against district matchup Somerset South Homestead, in which Marathon racked up 10 runs with just 3 hits. Leo

Mendez, Tommy Norris and Gabe Leal all singled in the abbreviated five-inning game. Gabe Leal pitched all 5 innings, striking out 9 and allowing just 3 hits and no walks in the 10-0 mercyrule win.

On Leap Day, Marathon played Downtown Doral to another shortened game, winning 17-7 in 6 innings. Marathon’s bats were ablaze with 16 hits, including 4 from Mason Thornton. Dylan Ziels and Gabe Leal had 3 hits each, with Ziels reaching base 5 times for a perfect on-base percentage. Gavin Leal and Mendez had 2 hits each and Norris and Aidan Gonzalez added the final 2 hits for the Fins. Marathon was busy rounding the bases, with a dozen walks and 4 batters hit by pitches. Gavin Leal and Thornton paired up on the mound for 5 strikeouts.

The Fins’ final game of the week came on March 1 against Ransom Everglades. Marathon had just 4 hits, with 2 from Jack Chapman. Thornton added a double and Gavin Leal accounted for the final Dolphin hit. Three batters hit by pitches and 13 walks helped the Fins add points while Ziels effectively retired the other side inning by inning until he hit the top of his pitch count. Ziels fanned 9 in 6 innings and handed the ball to Gabe Leal, who closed out the game in three-up, three-down fashion.

Coral Shores split its games last week, losing to Dade Christian at home on Feb. 26, then beating Somerset Silver Palms in a home matchup on March 1. The Hurricanes registered 8 hits against Dade Christian, with 2 apiece from Campbell Lavoie, AJ Putetti and Eddie Holly. Maykol Bonito-Rodriguez was good for 1 base hit and Benjamin Friedman added an extra base with a double. The ’Canes worked through four pitchers in their loss against the Crusaders. Tate Brumbalow started on the mound and spanned 3 innings. When he retired to the dugout, the Hurricanes were ahead 3-0. Dade Christian broke things open in inning four and slowly pulled away in the next 3 innings to defeat Coral Shores 9-4.

Things were a little different on Friday night, when the visiting Somerset Academy Silver Palms team struggled against the pitching of Donovan Thiery and Lavoie, who combined on the mound for 13 strikeouts. The ’Canes’ bats were good for 8 hits, with 2 coming from Lavoie. Friedman had his second double of the week with the other base hits, all singles, coming from Thiery, Riley O’Berry, Michael Snyder and Grady Temkin. The ’Canes won the district game 3-2, evening their record to 2-2.

KEY WEST’S RALPH RICHE MEDALS AT STATES

Senior claims fifth place at Kissimmee

Four Conchs traveled to Kissimmee for the FHSAA 1A State Wrestling Championships. Sheyla Figueira, Abram Canet, Dostmukhammad Bakhtiyorov and Ralph Riche represented the Southernmost City at the event, each qualifying for a chance to win a state title by placing in the top four at regionals. One wrestler battled his way through the brackets to the medal round.

Riche entered the event seeded ninth. The 285-lb. senior was not new to the state championship arena, nor to the medal podium – Riche brought home a fifth-place medal last year competing in the 220-lb. category. Riche grappled his way into the history books, winning a second fifth-place medal, this time in the heavyweight category.

“After a tough first match at states, Ralph was able to fight back and take fifth place. His ability to win match after match after coming up short early in the tournament shows his determination and resilience,” said Key West athletic director Justin Martin. “He has grown into a strong leader and the embodiment of Conch Pride. We are beyond proud of him.”

Coach Chaz Jimenez echoed Martin’s sentiments. “Ralph is the type of kid that coaches love to coach,” he said. “His grit and determination sets him apart and is what will make him a success in life. I’m truly blessed to have coached such a great young man.”

Former Conch Ailee Briggs, who was part of Key West’s inaugural girls program last season, won silver in a crimsonand-gray singlet in 2023. This year, the sophomore wrestled for Lemon Bay and won the state championship in the 135-lb. category.

LADY FINS RANKED #1 IN 2A

Marathon remains unbeaten in regular-season play

Marathon had no problems hanging on to its perfect record last week. The Fins improved to 4-0 after a pair of wins, starting with Lourdes Academy on Feb. 28. Allison Garcia struck out a dozen batters over 7 innings and managed to log 3 hits offensively, including a double. Sara Robinson earned 3 hits of her own, while Elena Eubank and Madelyn Thornton each had 2. Maeve Merryman, Shynell McGuire and Daniela Gonzalez accounted for the remainder of Marathon’s hits.

On March 1, Marathon sent the visiting Raiders of Ransom Everglades home early in a 15-0 mercy-rule stomping. Eubank added another 3 hits to her stats. Robinson had 2 hits with Thornton, McGuire and Ryleigh Garcia driving a hit apiece. Allison Garcia struck out 11 of 15 batters faced over 4 innings, allowing no hits and just 2 walks. Marathon’s success out of the gates this season allowed its ranking to rocket to No. 1 in 2A across Florida. The Fins are batting .396 as a team with a .508 on-base percentage to help boost their wins as well as their ranking.

The Hurricanes had no games on the schedule last week. Coral Shores will play its home opener Thursday, March 7 against Colonial Christian. The Lady Conchs did not see any game action last week, either. Their schedule included Mater Lakes Academy on March 2, which was canceled. Next up for Key West is a doubleheader against John Carroll Catholic, set to be played in The Backyard on Saturday, March 9 at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.
