THIS WEEK
Justice
Justice has been working for this moment from the time we walked out of the state meet last year.” — Jessie Schubert, Marathon weightlifting coach.
2X Gold medalist FHSAA State Championships
Justice Lee made it clear she was a force to be reckoned with last season when she qualified for the FHSAA State Championships in weightlifting as a freshman. Lee came home without a medal, but was not the least bit discouraged. In fact, she let her desire to be the best fuel her. She dedicated herself to getting stronger and perfecting her form, rarely missing a day of lifting and following coach Jessie Schubert’s instructions without hesitation or complaint. Her relentless pursuit of perfection paid off last weekend when she claimed dual state titles in girls weightlifting. The sophomore powerhouse will return to work this week in her third sport in hopes of making a second state appearance this year – this time in track and field, where she excels as a thrower. For her unwavering determination and refusal to be anything but the absolute best, Marathon’s Justice Lee is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week. Photo CONTRIBUTED

TWICE AS GOLDEN Marathon’s Justice Lee wins pair of state championships in Lakeland; Keys lifters bring home six medals
S
ophomore Justice Lee made Monroe County history on Feb. 17 when she won both the traditional and Olympic events at the FHSAA 1A State Championships in Lakeland. Though Coral Shores’ Julian Juvier struck double gold in 2023, Lee is the first female weightlifter from Monroe County to accomplish the enormous feat. She claimed her first gold in the Olympic category after topping her regional lifts by 10 pounds in both the snatch and clean and jerk. Her 190-lb. clean and jerk gave her the momentum heading into the traditional event, where she led her closest competitor by 10 pounds and distanced herself by 15 pounds from a North Florida athlete who was capable of matching Lee’s bench press and possibly stealing a win in the traditional event. Lee then benched 175 pounds, her best in competition so far. When added to her clean and jerk, the lift gave her a second state title. Lee was ecstatic with her win, but said she isn’t going to take any time off to revel in her accomplishments. “It feels amazing to make history, especially for the town I love,” she told the Weekly. Though confident in her ability and training, Lee said she wasn’t without some worries headed into the state meet. “My biggest concern going into states was all of the pressure I had on my shoulder,” she explained. “Next for me as a weightlifter is to hopefully get some state records.”

Next up for the multisport athlete will be track, where she competes in throwing events, followed by spring football. Lee plays fullback and linebacker for the Fins’ varsity tackle team in addition to her female flag football team, which also recently won a championship. The medal is a testament to the growth of an alreadydominant Marathon girls weightlifting program, led by coach Jessie Schubert. Lee’s are the second and third gold medals to return to Marathon in the last three years, with Rylan Chapa claiming the individual snatch title in 2022. Coral Shores’ Jennille Arias also had a phenomenal showing in the 169-lb. class. Tied for fourth heading into the meet, Arias was determined to reach the podium and secure a medal. Coach Erin Hamilton knew Arias was within reach, saying, “When Jennille puts her mind to something, she fights to the end.” And fight she did. Arias added five pounds to her clean and jerk and 10 to her bench to claim a silver medal in the traditional event. The sophomore sensation won a second medal earlier in the competition, claiming sixth place in the Olympic category after an initial eighth-place seeding. A 15-pound increase in her snatch lift ensured she returned to Tavernier with two medals around her neck.

With two medals from Lee and another two from Arias, Monroe County was already looking great in the eyes of the state, but another pair of lifters added to the medal count. 101-lb. Ella Dunn brought home a fifth-place medal in the Olympic category and claimed a seventh-place finish in traditional, just one place away from a second medal for the mighty junior. Sierra Earnhardt, also a junior but likely to graduate a year early, won bronze in the 119-lb. Olympic category. Earnhardt finished eighth in the traditional event.

CONCHS MAKE IT 15 IN A ROW Entire Key West squad plus eight ’Canes advance to Regionals; Figueira earns state bid
KEYS WEEKLY SPORTS WRAP / FEBRUARY 22, 2024
T
he Key West Conchs are continuing their schoolrecord win streak with 15 consecutive district championships in boys wrestling. The Conchs destroyed their competition on Feb. 15 at Coral Shores High School, with the runner-up trailing by 94 points despite Key West not fielding a 106-lb. contender. Eight Conchs were crowned district champions, beginning with Abram Canet in the 132-lb. class. Also striking gold at districts were James Searcy (138), Dost Bahktiyorov (144), Jason Flynn (150), Alfredo Corrales (157), Roman Saballos (165), Tristan Yokoyama (215) and Ralph Riche (285). Other regional qualifiers for Key West were Michael Guzman, who won silver at 190 lbs.; Elvis Garcia (120), Prometheus Delacerda (126) and Brayan Ayala (175) who each won bronze; and Jacob Ferguson, who took fourth at 113 lbs. In wrestling, the top four places at districts advance to regionals with no at-large spots available. Coral Shores did not field a district champion, but still advanced eight athletes to the next round. Steven DeRobertis (106) and Sebastian McCoy (113) won silver medals while Devin Smith (138), David Beltran (144) and Kevin Pere (165) won bronze. Tristan Court rounded out the ’Canes’ qualifiers at the 157-lb. spot with a fourth-place finish. Morgan Stough (126) and Sterling Keefe (132) qualified as wild cards. Both teams will travel to Jensen Beach High School on Feb. 23 and 24 for the FHSAA 1A Region 4 Championships in hopes of cracking the top four spots and advancing to the state meet. The big show is held Feb. 29 to March 2 at Silver Spurs Arena in Kissimmee. Already slated to appear at the state meet is one of the Lady Conchs’ grapplers. While the boys were battling it out at districts in Tavernier, Key West’s girls were at Bayside High in Palm Bay for the FHSAA 1A Region 4 Championships on Feb. 17. Sheyla Figueira wrestled her way to the third-place medal in the 100-lb. bracket, securing her spot at the state championships. This will be Figueira’s second appearance at the state meet after qualifying last year in the Lady Conchs’ inaugural season.

A MIXED PRESEASON BAG FOR KEYS BASEBALL
All three teams begin regular schedules this week

ey West tested its skills against the Trojans of Taravella High in a pair of games Feb. 16 and 17. The 4A Conchs struggled at bat against the 7A Trojans, with their lone hit Friday night coming from Noah Burnham in inning six. Jacob Burnham started on the mound for the Conchs, striking out five and allowing five hits over four innings. Anthony Lariz completed the final three innings, giving up one hit and fanning three batters as Key West settled for a 3-3 tie.
On Saturday, the story was similar; this time it was Steel Mientkiewicz with a single hit for the Conchs. Four pitchers shared the duties, with the start going to Christian Koppal, who went 2.2 innings, striking out six batters, walking three and allowing four hits. Vinny Moline, Felix Ong and Kasey Kasper saw one inning of relief each in the five-inning game. While the Conchs were not prolific at the plate against the Trojans, Saturday’s game saw a typical Key West machine-like defense without a single error committed in the 10-0 loss. The Taravella games do not count against the Conchs, who often test themselves against larger schools in the preseason. Key West and the rest of Monroe County’s teams will begin their regular season games this week. The Conchs play 5A North Fort Myers in a two-game series starting Feb. 23 at Rex Weech Field. Marathon ace Dylan Ziels started off his senior campaign with nine strikeouts on Feb. 16 when the Fins faced Berean Christian in a preseason game. Ziels was ranked both in Florida and nationally last season and looks to continue fanning the opposition for his senior season. Marathon beat the Bulldogs 11-0 in four-and-a-half innings of
play. The mercy-rule win allowed many of the Dolphin underclassmen to step to the plate in their first varsity appearances. Ziels pitched three innings, while Gavin Leal and Mason Thornton each pitched an inning of relief. Thornton, Tommy Norris and Jack Chapman each had a pair of hits and Aiden Gonzalez, Gabe Leal, Gavin Leal and Shane Dieguez each registered one hit in the win. Next up for Marathon was Everglades Prep on Feb. 20 in their regular-season opener (results not available at press time). Coral Shores played a pair of preseason games last week, starting with the Cowboys of Cooper City on Feb. 12. The ’Canes lost 8-1 to Cooper City but had some success with their bats. Maykol Bonito-Rodriguez had a pair of singles while AJ Putetti, Donovan Thiery and Riley O’Berry registered one hit each. Coral Shores spread out pitching duties to five athletes, giving a majority of their bullpen a good look for the upcoming season. Two days later, the Hurricanes played Hialeah Educational Academy, losing 12-0 to the Bulldogs. The ’Canes started their regular season Feb. 20 against ABF Academy Homestead (results not available at press time) and will face district rival Keys Gate on the 22nd.

W
hen a Feb. 12 tennis match pitting Key West against Marathon was postponed, the Feb. 15 Coral Shores/Key West meetup became the first in-county match of the season.

In doubles action, Burga and Althouse defeated Picco and Burnett 8-2, while Smith and Moerner defeated MacAlearney and Bergh 8-4. The Lady Conchs fared better in their matches, winning 4-3 overall. In singles play, Eva Drozdetskaya of Key West defeated Charlotte MacEachern 8-5, Coral Shores’ Olivia Hughes defeated Key West’s Gabriella Aguero 8-3, and the Conchs’ Amalia Strunk defeated Kai Guth of Coral Shores 8-1. Coral Shores’ Mary Cakans beat Zoe Gehin of Key West 8-4 and Hurricane Claudia Steling defeated Ally Ingold-Thompson of Key West 8-5. In doubles play, the teams split the wins, with Drozdetskaya and Aguero teaming up to defeat MacEachern and Hughes 8-3 and Guth and Cakans defeating the duo of Strunk and Gehin 8–3. Marathon traveled to Tavernier to take on Coral Shores Feb. 20, then the Fins hit the road to play against Key West Feb. 28 to complete the first round of in-county play.

’CANES, FINS WIN OLYMPIC LIFTS AT GULLIVER TRI-MEET
W
hile the Keys’ lady lifters were making history in Lakeland, the boys traveled to Gulliver Prep last week for a tri-meet in Miami. The Dolphins and Hurricanes tied for first in Olympic lifts, taking second and third place, respectively, in traditional. Both teams’ success in Olympic lifts is a direct result of the attention to detail coaches Erin Hamilton and Jessie Schubert pay to their athletes’ form in the offseason. The Olympic event pairs a lifter’s clean and jerk with the snatch lift, which often takes years to master. Big winners for Marathon were Chase Leird in the 119-lb. class, Zachary Antonelli (129), Tanner Ross (199) and Alexandre Cruz (138). All four Fins won both events at the Feb. 14 meet. For Coral Shores, Jordan Henderson won both events in the 139-lb. class and Xavier Johnson won the 183-lb. Olympic event. AJ Johnson won both 219-lb. events and was the overall top lifter in the Olympic category using the Sinclair score algorithm. Both teams will compete in a home-and-home series the next few weeks and add another trip to Gulliver before their postseason series, which begins the last week of March.
