ATHLETE

These two pitchers were outstanding. We allowed only one run and three hits over 14 innings of baseball in one of the toughest districts in South Florida.”

– Ralph Henriquez, Conchs head coach

3

When a team has built a dynasty the way Key West has in baseball, those who unlocked the secrets behind perennial triumph command respect. So when Conchs coach Ralph Henriquez deems two athletes worthy of the honor of Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week, it stands to reason that the first-ever joint Athletes of the Week be crowned.

In their trek to their 33rd district championship, the Conchs needed a pair of wins, and fortunately for Key West fans, Henriquez had a pair of aces. Senior pitchers Anthony Lariz and Jacob Burnham have been throwing gems all season long, performing their greatest in the moments their team needed them the most.

Lariz, a daunting 6’5” right-handed pitcher, is No. 1 in District 16 with a 1.54 ERA, 5 wins and 81 strikeouts this season.

His performance in the district semifinals last week highlighted his fortitude as he threw a complete game, giving up just 1 run in 7 innings of work. Key for Lariz is keeping ahead in the count and great command on a fastball that maintains its velocity deep into the innings. A masterful performance by the senior got the Conchs to the championship game, but Key West would require another arm, and another masterpiece, to win it.

Burnham, a lefty with a nasty curveball and a laserguided fastball, worked 6-2/3 innings in the district championship last week to clinch number 33 for Key West. He was praised for a high percentage of firstpitch strikes and a collected temperament, making him an asset in any game, but indispensable in the playoffs. Burnham is tied with Lariz for the most wins in the district and has 65 strikeouts and counting to his name this season. His 1.84 ERA is fourth in the district and he is second in innings pitched, with just Lariz in front of him.

For their dominance on the mound for one of the greatest teams in prep baseball history, Key West’s Anthony Lariz and Jacob Burnham are the Keys Weekly Athletes of the Week.

PODCAST HOST

April showers played a part in the abrupt end to the seasons of two Keys baseball teams, while the third likely benefited from a May downpour. Key West was the latter.

On May 1, the Conchs, whose strength of schedule and record afforded them a bye in the first round of the playoffs, faced the Sabres of St. Brendan School in the FHSAA 4A District 16 semifinals. Senior Anthony Lariz was trusted with the start for what could have spelled the final game of his season, but the steady righty lasted all 7 innings, striking out 8, walking 2 and giving up just 2 hits in another fantastic performance on the mound.

CONCHS SEAL 33RD DISTRICT CHAMPIONSHIP

Lariz, Burnham masterful on the mound

Key West had another error-free game defensively, but struggled at the plate, registering just 3 hits. Freshman Roman Garcia ripped a double, while Nelson Ong and Sam Holland had a base hit each. That would be all the Conchs needed to win 3-1, sending them into the district championship game the following night.

Though weather did not factor into Key West’s game, it rained out the other District 16 semifinal game, forcing those teams to play in the afternoon of May 2 while Key West waited to see who their rival would be in the championship game that night.

The Killian Cougars defeated the Miami Sunset Knights to claim their spot in the championship game, but there was little rest for the Cougars, who then had to play the Conchs a few hours later. This time, senior Noah Burnham was handed the ball in what would become a pitchers’ duel, remaining scoreless until the fifth inning.

Key West broke it open, scoring 2 runs off 2 walks, 2 hits and a sacrifice bunt laid down perfectly by Auggy Davila. Inning five would be all the offense Key West needed to win the game. Lariz also doubled in the game while Garcia, Steel Mientkiewicz and Ong singled.

Burnham struck out 5, walking just 2 and allowing 6 hits in 6-2/3 innings. After tossing 106 pitches, fellow senior Felix Ong finished off the final batter, striking him out on three pitches to seal the 33rd district championship for Key West in a 2-0 victory over the Cougars.

The Conchs faced the District 13 runner-up Falcons of Jensen Beach High School in the FHSAA 4A Region 4 quarterfinals. Though the Conchs were seeded one place below the Falcons, their district title afforded them the home field advantage. The game was scheduled for May 8 at Rex Weech Field (results not available at press time).

Hits by Nelson Ong in both the district semifinals and championship game helped propel Key West to another district title.

In another universe, the Marathon Dolphins and Coral Shores Hurricanes did battle last Thursday for a district championship in one of the best in-county baseball matchups in Keys history. In this universe, Mother Nature and the Florida High School Athletic Association had other plans.

Coral Shores defeated Somerset South Homestead 14-2 in a quarterfinal game on April 29. The ’Canes made short work of Somerset, defeating them in 4½ innings with 11 hits, including a triple and a grand slam home run off the bat of junior Campbell Lavoie. Lavoie drove in five of Coral Shores’ runs with senior Zeke Myers driving in four. Myers was 2 for 2 at the plate with a home run of his own, plus a double. Ben Friedman connected for a single and a double and Donovan Thiery, Eddie Holly, Riley O’Berry, Grady Temkin and Dominic Batista had base hits in the mercy-rule win. Grayden Ross, Tate Brumbalow and O’Berry combined on the mound for 9 strikeouts and 6 walks in a nohitter that knocked Somerset South Homestead out of the playoffs and propelled the ’Canes into the semifinals the following night.

Coral Shores’ competition against the Knights of Keys Gate would also end early, but not because one team was dominating. After a scoreless first inning, Keys Gate struck first, scoring 1 run in the second.

Coral Shores immediately responded with 2 runs when AJ Putetti singled, Thiery walked, then Myers and Lavoie singled to put the Hurricanes in the lead, which they held until the fourth inning.

With 5 innings of play in the books and wet conditions, a Greater Miami Athletic Conference official ruled the game was over. And so was the season for the Hurricanes, which had six seniors on the team.

“Was it a cheap way to have a season end? Absolutely,” Hammon said. “The guys were certainly discouraged and angry, as were the fans. Some of the fans would have loved for me to step in and do something to keep the game going, but that possibility didn’t exist.”

While the rules state weather can end a game, so long as it’s past the fifth inning, Hammon said he’d like to see an exception for postseason play.

“I don’t see that happening, but it’s worth pursuing,” he said.

Two hours away on the same night, heartbreak struck the Middle Keys, as newly crowned South Florida Baseball Conference champion Marathon took on Somerset Silver Palms after a first-round bye.

Marathon started junior Mason Thornton on the mound. Thornton would complete 4 innings, fanning 5, walking 1 and allowing 2 hits

WHAT-IFS

mound and a .387 hitter, also Ziels, coming up next to the plate.

Ziels quickly dispatched three batters in the top of the sixth and did not disappoint at the plate with a hard double to left field. Just as Ziels reached first, the first drops of what would become a downpour came. Neither the rain nor the game stopped as Ziels advanced to third in a series of groundouts and a walk, but was left stranded in scoring position at the end of the inning.

With the game delayed due to rain, Marathon’s entire roster and coaching staff went to work, tarping and raking the home-field clay.

“Thirty minutes into the flipping of the field, the umpire came up to us and said we could go ahead and have our pitcher start getting loose,” coach Joey Gonzalez said. Fifteen minutes later, that message changed.

“I really don’t know what happened,” Gonzalez said. “All I know is that a call came in to the opposing team’s coach, (and) that coach then delivered another message to the officials. … After that phone call, the umpire called me over and told me he shouldn’t be in a position to have a lawsuit against him because of a highschool baseball game.”

Early cancellations deny comeback attempts for Marathon, Coral Shores

Three well-placed hits resulted in 3 runs, giving the Knights the 2-run lead. In inning 5, Coral Shores began to chip away at the deficit, with 1 run scored after a pair of doubles from Temkin and Thiery. Thiery took over pitching duties from Lavoie in the bottom of the fifth, but midway through the third batter, the game was stopped when lightning was detected several miles away.

Coach Tony Hammon said the teams and fans sheltered in a safe location for about 45 minutes without seeing lightning or hearing thunder.

“The guys and parents were obviously ready to play,” Hammon said. “After 40 minutes, I walked over to the Keys Gate coach and said, ‘We can’t have the game end this way. It’s a district game. This should be delayed, let’s come back tomorrow to finish.’ He wouldn’t say no to that. But I also knew he was in the lead.”

With the game expected to resume, the Hurricanes began to warm up. But rain began to fall on the field, and play never restarted.

before handing the ball off to senior Dylan Ziels. Ziels was not finished warming up in the bullpen when the barometer dropped with Somerset up 3-1.

In the bottom of the fifth inning, Marathon was facing a two-out situation without a runner on base. Jack Chapman and Tiago Rivero walked, and Thornton singled on a hard ground ball. Chapman would score on the throw, but Rivero was thrown out advancing to third for the final out of the inning. Things still looked hopeful for the Fins, down 3-2 with their ace on the

“Both teams and everybody in the stands – nobody thought that game was going to get called. Both teams were warming up,” he added. “When we finished off that sixth inning, the field conditions were much worse than what they were when they called the game.”

Gonzalez said he agreed with Hammon that while the statewide game completion rules make enough sense for regular-season play, there should be “strong consideration” for a rule change to prevent a season being cut short due to weather. But after days of reflection, the termination did nothing to dim his pride in his team and the response from the entire Florida Keys community – including an outpouring of social media support from fans, residents and even the rival Key West Conchs.

“It was something that needed to be said,'' Gonzalez said. “Just knowing we are in this type of community where we all have each others’ backs.”

“Both teams and everybody in the stands – nobody thought that game was going to get called. Both teams were warming up.”

— Marathon coach Joey Gonzalez

The heartbreaking 3-2 loss ended the Fins’ otherwise stellar season. Thornton and Ziels struck out 8 batters, walked 2 and allowed 4 hits in a powerful dual-pitching performance. Ziels ended up with 3 of Marathon’s 4 hits. Thornton singled for hit number 4.

SOFTBALL: STAYING ALIVE

Despite losses, Conchs and Fins remain in hunt for state championships

Marathon’s softball team faced a familiar foe in the FHSAA 1A District 16 quarterfinals on April 29. They played Mater Academy Bay, a team they handled easily just over a week prior. This time, the Rays gave the Fins a bit more of a challenge. It came down to the wire, but in the end, the Lady Fins prevailed, winning 7-6 and staying alive in the hunt for a district championship. Senior pitcher Allison Garcia struck out 6 batters, walked 2 and gave up 6 hits over 7 innings. Offensively, freshman Maeve Merryman drove in 2 runs off a pair of base hits while junior Shynell McGuire singled and tripled for the Fins. Junior Elena Eubank doubled and added a pair of stolen bases to her stats. Freshmen Sara Robinson and Madelyn Thornton added 1 hit each, with Robinson earning extra bases with a triple. Garcia smacked a solid double to make it 8 hits for Marathon.

The quarterfinal win placed Marathon in a game against top-seeded Miami Christian in a muddy semifinal matchup. The Fins failed to register a hit against Miami Christian. Garcia was choosy at the plate, walking in a run for Marathon. Merryman scored the Fins’ other run, taking advantage of a passed ball. The woes for Marathon did not end with sloppy

field conditions or silent bats; their starting pitcher had to retire to the bench midway through inning two with shoulder soreness. Robinson took over in the circle, but by then, Miami Christian had already done enough damage to earn a 17-2 mercy-rule win. The Fins’ 12-5 record was strong enough to keep them alive in the playoffs. Marathon earned an at-large spot in the regional quarterfinals. That game was to be a rematch against Miami Christian on the road May 8 at 7 p.m. (Results not available at press time.)

Key West skipped the quarterfinals and the semifinals, heading straight to the FHSAA 4A District 16 championship game to defend its title last week. The reigning champs traveled to St. Brendan School on May 2 to face the Sabres in a game that would crown one team district champion and potentially knock the other out of contention. Key West wasted no time registering its first of 10 hits, when Scarlet Niles doubled on a hard ground ball in the first at-bat of the game. Though Key West hoped that would set the tone, their bats would go dormant until inning three and neither team got on the board until the fourth, when St. Brendan registered 7 of its 10 hits, scoring 6 runs. The disastrous half-inning woke the Conchs’ bats up, and Key West

answered with three consecutive hits, scoring 1 run and peppering the bases for Niles, the Lady Conchs’ top hitter with 6 home runs under her belt this season.

The Sabres prudently called for the intentional walk on Niles, then managed to dig their way out of what could have been a disastrous half-inning of their own. The Sabres held on to win the game and the district title in an 8-3 victory. In addition to Niles’ hit, Alexandra Rodriguez, Alexa Condella and Nevaeh Arnold each added a pair while Tavyn Gage, Shylo Sanchez and Nina Manresa had 1 each. Senior Chloe Gilday started at pitcher, striking out 5 batters and giving up 6 hits over 3-1/3 innings. Freshman Breanna Breener closed it out for Key West in what could have been the end of the season. But don’t count the Conchs out yet. Despite a 6-14 record, their strength of schedule earned them an at-large bid to regionals, keeping Key West in the hunt for a state title. The Lady Conchs had a shot at redemption on May 8, when they headed back to St. Brendan to face the Sabres in a must-win rematch in the FHSAA 4A regional quarterfinals.

FINS BOYS 2ND AT DISTRICTS

Track & field teams prepare for regionals on road to state

The Marathon boys and girls track & field teams earned six district championship titles at the FHSAA 1A District 16 competition at Palmer Trinity School on May 1. The boys team earned 134 total points, securing the runner-up team trophy and qualifying seven individuals and two relay teams for the regional meet. The girls team placed third with 104 team points, qualifying eight more athletes for the next level.

Junior Mikhail Marshall was Marathon’s top male performer. He brought home gold medals in the 100- and 200-meter races as well as one for the district-champion 4x400 relay. Marshall will compete in all three events next week. Other members of the 4x400 team were Caleb Shelar, Jakub Bursa and Mason Buxton. Buxton’s skills proved essential to the Fins’ final tally. He took second in the 800-meter race and third in javelin and discus. Vance Bursa was second in the one- and two-mile races and third in the 800. He ran anchor on the second-place 4x800 relay team, making it four total miles of racing at districts and four events for him at regionals. The other members of the qualifying 4x800 team were Jakub Bursa, Caleb Shelar and Dillon Shelar, making it a double brother event. Fabbianho Louis Jeune earned two medals, winning second in high jump and third in the triple jump. The final three regional-qualifying athletes were freshman Cullen Coleman-Sayer and sixth-grader Maverick McDonald, who placed second and third in pole vault, respectively, plus eighth-grader Tony Bursa, who raced to fourth in the two-mile race.

Leading the scoring for the girls team was sophomore powerlifter Justice Lee, who transferred her strength to the field events. Her 107’7” javelin toss broke her own school record and was good for district gold. Lee added another district championship title in shot put and placed second in the discus, qualifying for all three events at regionals. Classmate Ava Merryman earned a first-place medal in the pole vault with Samantha Batzer, also a sophomore, coming in third. Fellow sophomore Daysi Williams took second in high jump and fourth in the 200 to give her two events at regionals. Senior Kayesha Christian was second in long jump while Caylie Globe, a junior, took fourth in long and high jump. Marti Kilbourne was third in javelin and Tinashay Cunningham was third in the 400, rounding out Marathon’s automatic qualifiers.

The top four finishers at districts get an automatic pass to regionals while others must wait it out to see whether their best times and distances make the cut. When all the numbers were crunched, a slew of Fins were awarded spots in the regional event. Allan Taylor, an eighth-grader, qualified in the one- and two-mile events with Danny Merryman and Eian Batzer qualifying in discus and long jump, respectively. Lady Fins senior Mikkel Ross earned a place at the start of the girls’ twomile race while Cami Wrinn qualified in the 400 hurdles as the Dolphins’ final at-large place winner.

Key West and Coral Shores learned the fate of several high-performing athletes who, though they did not capture a top-four spot at districts, had a shot at regionals. The ’Canes did not receive any good news when the heat sheets came out, but Key West will need to make room for two more athletes and a few more poles for their trip to regionals. Malachi Telisma’s high-jump mark was strong enough for an at-large qualification, as was Jeremiah Harvey’s javelin throw. Audrey Smith, already on the list for javelin, also met the mark in discus. Kaylee Matas Cabezuelo added a third event with a qualifying height in pole vault, while Ariel Newton became the fourth Lady Conch vaulter to qualify. In all, Key West qualified seven pole vaulters, with five ranked in the top 10, a testament to the strength of its program.

All three Keys teams were set to compete May 7 at Calvary Christian High School for the 1A and 2A finals, being held in tandem this year. Athletes must perform in the top 2 in each event at regionals to guarantee a spot at the state track and field championships with a handful of at-large bids up for grabs, as well. Marathon’s state championship meet is May 15 while Coral Shores and Key West take their marks the following day. All divisions compete at the University of North Florida in Jacksonville.
