DAVILA

Auggy is a determined athlete. He is ready for all situations due to his strong work ethic.”

– Judd Wise, Conchs color commentator and Florida Keys sports historian

Auggy

lone inning of work on April 1 may not have looked extraordinary on paper, but those 17 pitches carried historic weight. With a save against Miami Southridge, Davila set a new Key West single-season record with eight, etching his name into one of the program’s most competitive record books.

.973 saves school record fielding percentage this season ON THE COVER APRIL 9

Davila continued to deliver at the plate throughout the week, recording a hit against Lakeside before doubling and driving in a run against Miami High on April 4. Later that evening, he came through again in a second matchup with Lakeside, tallying two hits, including a walk-off that sealed the win for the Conchs.

When he’s not closing out games, Davila anchors the defense at shortstop, where he has posted an impressive .973 fielding percentage this season, and with a season to go, there is no limit to what Davila can do. For his dedication to the sport and to the Conchs and for coming in clutch again and again, Key West’s Auggy Davila is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.

Keys lacrosse teams face familiar foes in district quarterfinals

With the regular season in the rear view, Keys lacrosse teams are set for high-stakes rematches in the district quarterfinals.

Coral Shores’ boys finished 11-5, securing the fifth seed in their FHSAA 1A District 16 bracket.

The Hurricanes defeated St. Brendan in a 16-4 road win on March 31. Christian Gonzalez had five goals, James Mitchell had three goals and an assist and Zane Martinez had one goal and three assists in the win.

Next up was a stacked NSU University School on April 2. Scoring for the ’Canes were Finn McDonough with four goals, Mitchell with three and two assists and Martinez with two goals. Gonzalez and Nathaniel Shugarman each added two assists. Goalie Brock Bynum had 22 saves in the 17-10 loss. The team found their winning ways again two days later in a 13-4 home romp against Cardinal Gibbons to finish their regular season strong.

“After a slow start, the team put their foot on the gas pedal and scored nine unanswered goals,” said coach Chris Carrow.

Mitchell led the way with six goals and an assist. Martinez netted three goals and three assists while Gonzalez scored two and assisted on another pair. SG Paul had one goal and one assist and McDonough added one goal and three assists to his stats. Bynum had seven saves in the big win. Carrow’s hope for a rematch against neighboring rival Key West will come to fruition this week, as the teams are slated

to play one another in the quarterfinals.

Key West earned the upper hand and home-field advantage with a No. 4 seed in the quarterfinals. The 10-4 Conchs lost to NSU University School on March 30, 19-14, then won two in a row to finish their regular season with momentum from a 12-3 defeat of Archbishop McCarthy on April 1 and a resounding 14-1 win over Keys Gate on April 4. The closely-matched Conchs and ’Canes meet in the Southernmost City on Thursday, April 9 at 6 p.m. to determine who earns the right to challenge top-seeded Westminster Christian in the semifinals on April 11.

The Lady Conchs finished their regular season with a 6-8 record after a week of mixed results. The team started at St. Brendan, where they lost 15-7 in what coach Marissa Giacopuzzi described as a “full battle.” The Conchs finished the game with six caused turnovers and 14 ground balls, but also drew a pair of penalty cards, putting them at a disadvantage for four minutes of play. St. Brendan capitalized with some quick goals in the 15-7 March 31 loss.

April 3 pitted the Conchs against NSU University School, one of the top teams in South Florida. Colbie Turner and Mavis Bishop netted two goals apiece and Taylor Gibson scored one, but the Sharks’ scoring was fast and furious, leading to a 16-5 loss for Key West.

The following day, Key West finished their regular season on a high note with a 15-1 victory over a visiting Keys Gate. The lopsided contest allowed the entire Lady Conchs’ roster to see time and vary their positions, and a dozen different athletes scored, including low defenders Molly Martinez, Madison Horner and Vivienne Kenn, who scored two.

Goalkeeper Diya Alwani traded sticks and positions to net a goal of her own on a free position shot with just eight seconds remaining in the game. Bishop

scored three and chalked up five assists while Turner, Adriana Dall, Gibson, Althea Olsen, Eisley Whitehead, Adilys Frouel and Ashlyn Picco accounted for the rest. Giacopuzzi was pleased with her team’s effort, especially that of the defense.

Next up for Key West is the FHSAA 1A District quarterfinals, where they travel back to the raucous fans of St. Brendan on Thursday, April 9 at 4 p.m. The Conchs head into the game ranked fifth while the Sabres drew the No. 4 seed. The winner will face top-seeded Palmer Trinity Apr. 11 in the semifinal game.

The Lady ’Canes dropped two games and finished 4-8 in the regular season. They lost 10-7 at Palmer Trinity March 31, then 17-3 to NSU University two days later. The losses gave Coral Shores the seventh seed in District 16, matching them with second seed Ransom Everglades Apr. 9 for their quarterfinal game. The winner heads into the semis against either third seed Westminster Christian or the sixth-seeded Lourdes two

BAG

The Coral Shores Lady ’Canes had mixed results on the softball field last week, with a win and a loss bringing their record to a respectable 6-3. Their first game was a four-inning mercy-rule win against Somerset South Homestead on March 31. Pressley Bagwell pitched a one-hitter, striking out two and walking none of the 14 batters she faced. Offensively, Addison Grady led the team with two hits. Caylyn Gwilliam, Alyvia Prince, Chloie Stanley, Kayden Costlow, Mira Jones and Bayley Catarineau had one apiece in the 10-0 win.

Two days later, the ’Canes lost to Palmer Trinity 7-0. Stanley and Prince had the only hits for Coral Shores. Bagwell and Prince shared the pitching load, but a hard-hitting Falcons crew came away with the win.

Marathon played one game last week, losing on the road to St. Brendan School in five innings. Madelyn Thornton, Maeve Merryman, Kayla Skaarup and Sutton Sayer doubled and Shaina Robinson singled, but five hits would not be enough to defeat the Sabres. Sayer and Thornton split time in the circle, but St. Brendan’s 13 hits and a slew of errors from the Fins ended with a 20-10 loss for Marathon.

Key West did not see any action last week. The Lady Conchs pick back up April 10 in their quest to hang on to their District 16 title. The 11-4 Conchs finish their regular season April 18, playing the remainder of their schedule at home. District action begins April 27 for the Conchs and Fins; the Hurricanes, who are independent and do not participate in postseason play, will close out their season at home against Marathon on April 21.

"The LaPradd family is three generations with Regan Roth Insurance. Our parents had Regan Roth as their insurance agent for years. They were incredibly happy with the coverage and assistance they received with their policies. Once we moved to the Keys, we wanted the same wonderful service, so we insured our properties with Regan Roth as well. Our children are also insured with Regan Roth as they know the importance of insurance coverage and they wanted the same valuable service our entire family has received over the years. We feel extremely comfortable knowing Holly Redding and the staff are there to help us with our insurance with coverage suggestions and recommendations to have the best protection we can. Holly always treats you like family and we could not imagine being with any other insurance agency. Thank you, Regan Roth, for being the best!”

Key West baseball fans enjoyed a flurry of action last week, beginning April 1 against Miami’s 5A Southridge Spartans. Despite being outhit 6-4, the Conchs made theirs count. Roman Garcia’s one-run home run, Kristian Master’s triple and a pair of singles from Kade Maltz and Nelson Ong were all Key West needed to defeat the Spartans. Maltz started on the mound and spanned six innings with five strikeouts, two walks, four hits and one earned run. Then Auggy Davila closed it out in the 2-1 win. Davila’s save, his eighth this season, surpassed the mark set by Darren Miller in 2013.

The next afternoon, the Lakeside School Chiefs visited the Rex all the way from Eufaula, Alabama. Donovan Thiery went the distance, striking out eight, walking two and surrendering three hits and no runs over seven innings. Garcia smacked a pair of doubles and collected two RBIs while Xavier Perez had two base hits. Maltz doubled and Davila and Thiery singled for a total of seven Conch hits. Eight walks boosted Key West’s offense to help fuel the 5-0 win.

An April 4 matchup between Miami High and Key West proved to be a lopsided one. The 7A

FOUR

Stingarees were effectively shut down by a perfect Key West defense, which logged a dozen putouts over the course of four innings. Cruz Holmes opened the game and threw for two hitless innings, then Nick Besson tossed another two to secure the shutout no-hitter.

The Conch duo struck out just one batter and allowed a single walk, trusting the defense to do the rest. Roman Garcia had the hot bat against the Stingarees. He was 3-for-3 at the plate with a single, double and triple. Tyrone Cervantes, Thiery, Darreld Tremino and Maltz had two hits apiece and Jackie Niles, Davila, Ong and Francisco Gonzalez accounted for the remainder of the whopping 15 Conch hits. The 15-0 win gave some underclassmen a chance to play and made for a three-game winning streak.

That streak stretched to four, all in one week, when Lakeside School took another shot at the Conchs later that night. Key West led through six and one-half innings when the Chiefs pieced together an offensive onslaught to tie the game up at 5. Fortunately for Key West, the lineup delivered with a Garcia walk, a Thiery single, then a bunt from Davila that not only placed him safely

on first, but led to a Lakeside error, which scored Garcia for the walk-off win.

Thiery and Davila ended the game with two hits each. One of Thiery’s was a two-run home run in the fifth inning. Maltz, Ong and Niles had one hit each in the 6-5 win. Ong got the start for Key West, allowing just one hit and zero runs over six innings. Ong struck out seven batters and walked none. Christian Koppal and Davila each put in some relief work to put the Conchs at 21-3 with just one regular-season game to go.

A much anticipated contest between the county’s closest neighbors on March 30 delivered for Fins fans, as Marathon and Coral Shores faced off

FOUR DOWN

in the Middle Keys. Dolphin junior Dylan Williams got the start and, with the help of his defense, dispatched the first three ’Cane batters, then picked up the bat for a leadoff single. A Hurricane error and three hits later and the Dolphins had three runs on the board, a lead they would hold for the remainder of the game.

Williams finished six innings with nine strikeouts, three walks and a single hit allowed. Jack Chapman stepped in for one inning of work, striking out three and walking one to secure the win. Williams added a double and went 2-for-3 to lead the Dolphin offense. Miles Murphy, Curren Nicolay, Bradley Buigas, Gabriele Cirina and Massimo Quargnali had one hit each. For Coral Shores, Brayden Turner’s single in the second inning was the lone hit of the game. Senior southpaw Riley O’Berry had a solid showing on the mound, striking out five Fins, walking one and surrendering six hits over six innings. The 3-0 win for the Dolphins marks the team’s first win against the Hurricanes since 2014.

After their big win against Coral Shores, Marathon faced off with JC Bermudez on April 3. The aptly-named Thunder brought big bats, racking up

a dozen hits against the Fins. Marathon managed four, with Roco Piscetello leading the way with a triple and a single. Buigas and Cirina added one apiece. Cirina pitched a majority of the game with help from Piscetello, Chapman and Rella to finish out the 9-4 loss.

The following afternoon, a visiting ABF Academy Homestead Black team squared off with the Dolphins. The relatively obscure Bandits, a derivative of the ABF Homestead team, acquired seven hits against Marathon. Like their prior game, the Fins managed just four hits, but when it comes to baseball, timing is everything.

In the bottom of the first, the Dolphins loaded the bases with walks, then Massimo Quargnali stepped to the plate and ripped a line drive to right field, resulting in a grand slam. They added another pair of runs in the sixth for good measure, and a 6-2 victory put the Fins at 13-8-1 for the season. Williams pitched a fantastic five innings, striking out 10, walking one and surrendering five hits and no runs. Piscetello and Rella shut the door on the Bandits. Cirina, Williams, Quargnali and Nicolay each had one hit with Cirina and Williams driving in one run each and Quargnali four.

9. Coral Shores’ Jack O’Keefe holds Marathon’s Jack Chapman on first.

The Hurricanes regrouped after their loss to Marathon and picked up a win against Keys Gate on April 2. Mason Clark got the start and Braylon Lindmar pitched four and one-third innings of relief in the win. Clark and Riley O’Berry had one hit and two RBIs each to lead the charge. Maykol Bonito and Jack O’Keefe had one hit and one RBI each and Brayden Turner and Keller Blackburn singled in the 7-4 win.

April 11 is the final day of regular season action for Florida high school baseball. District tournaments begin April 14.

TALENT ON THE TRACK

Keys teams showcase falling marks and rising stars

After an extended spring break, the Key West track and field team traveled to Belen Jesuit School for the Ripoll Invitational on March 31, and the Conchs produced some record-breaking performances.

Junior Jordan Greene finished in second place in the triple jump, but her 35’ 0.25” feat surpassed that of teammate Capri Miner’s school-record-breaking jump just three weeks ago. Prior to Miner’s leap, the record had stood for a quarter century.

Record-holder Ariel Newton won the nine-team competition outright in the pole vault competition, clearing the bar at 12’ 3.5”. Newton was close to breaking her own record but brushed the bar, bringing it down at the 12’ 9.25” height.

The two Lady Conch field standouts were joined by a pair of track stars. Junior Aly Camargo finished sixth in the open 800, moving to fourth in Key West’s record book with a 2:34 performance. Fellow junior Mirakle Humphrey finished the 100-meter race in 13.09 seconds, finishing sixth. Humphrey set a new school record in the event in March, but a strong headwind last week prevented her from eclipsing her own record.

Jeff Dejean was the overall winner in the long jump event. Dejean’s 22’ 1.5” leap was good for gold. Once he was finished in the sand pit, Dejean teamed up with Roman Van Loon, Walson Morin and Cavane Herron to take second place in the 4x200 relay. The fast foursome was within two seconds of the Conchs’ record in the relay.

The Dolphins of Marathon traveled to Miami’s Southridge High School for the Superfly Athletics Under the Lights meet on April 1, and several Fins made statements on the track and in the field. Freshman Lucian Burns won three events, finishing two laps of the 800-meter event in 2:04 for a new PR and a win. His second was a 4:36 1,600, and he added another eight laps for a win in the 3,200-meter race. The two miles took Burns just 10:26 to complete.

Tony Bursa was second in the 3,200 and third in the 800 to pick up points for the Dolphins. The Fins’ 4x100 relay

team of Sean Nelson, Tariq Patterson, Sean Westerband and Shamar Wright finished in third, but their 44.99-second time was good for a new school record. In the field, Israel Gonzalez placed second in the javelin event to round out Marathon’s top three finishers at Southridge.

The Lady Fins stacked up their wins in the field. Senior Daysi Williams won the high jump competition with a 1.52-meter leap. Justice Lee Isom won the javelin (32.64 meters) and shot put (11.74 meters) and placed second in the discus. Ava Merryman cleared the bar at 2.7 meters for a second in the pole vault. All three athletes are seniors.

The Hurricanes chose the Bronco Nation Last Chance event in Homestead on April 2 for their meet of the week. Junior Mikel Castellanos finished second in the shot put for the lone top-three spot for the boys team. Julieanna Oddo finished the 100 hurdles in second place with a new personal best; the girls’ 4x800 team finished third.

April 10 is the final regular-season date for meets this season. Key West and Coral Shores won’t have to wait too long for the postseason; both teams will compete at the 2A District 16 Championships at Southridge on April 15. 1A Marathon competes at Palmer on April 23.

COURT CLASH

Conchs down ’Canes at Coral Shores

Key West paid a visit to Tavernier on April 2 to face Coral Shores on the tennis courts. The Conchs’ boys and girls both brought home wins against the Hurricanes.

Ben Delostrinos, Hubert Konopka and Daniel Morales each won in singles and Delostrinos and Morales teamed up for another win in doubles to sweep the shorthanded ’Canes.

The girls’ matches were closer, with Coral Shores’ Allyson Rosendale, Vanessa Gabriel and Harlee Beeler winning in singles for a narrow 4-3 loss to Key West. Lady Conchs Beyza Atilla and Monea McLeod won in singles, then Atilla and Avery Batty plus Amina Erik and Shihan Ren won in doubles for Key West.

Earlier in the week, Andrei Lehene and John Picco won in singles and paired up for a third win in doubles action for a narrow loss to visiting La Salle. The girls suffered a similar fate, with their wins coming from Eva Drozdetskaia in singles and in doubles with teammate Atilla. Miah Apperson and Batty picked up another win in No. 2 doubles to make it 4-3 in favor of La Salle in their March 31 matches.

Coral Shores sent their girls to Riviera Prep on March 31 while the guys stayed at home to face South Dade. The boys were blanked, but Vanessa Gabriel won the No. 5 match to get the Lady ’Canes on the board.

Marathon’s Lady Fins traveled to True North on April 2 to take on the Titans. Shynell McGuire and Emily Alvear won in No. 1 doubles against a strong True North squad.

Like many spring sports, tennis season is winding down, with final regular-season matches closing out April 11 and district pairings slated for next week.
