Athletes of the Week - Anthony and Brooklin
I am still going to write up the championship stories for widget volleyball, and varsity baseball, so these write ups will be focused mostly on the individuals, not the teams.
Widget volleyball played their tournaments on Saturday at St Therese. All games were loser out, but our two teams both won their first two games, and squared off against each other in the finals. Brooklin's team won again, and she led the way again. Brooklin gets to as many balls as I've seen a widget get to. She consistently ranges all over the floor, and can get the ball in from anywhere. If a ball is hit right at her, she can always put it on the back line, where the other team will be lucky to get it back at all, and if they do, we will still be in good position to win the point. She booms overhand serves, and we are looking forward to her becoming a full time member of the JV team next year.
Varsity baseball also won the championship this season, and Anthony led the way for us in the tournament. We got a first round bye in the tournament, and then we got a rematch with St Mary's in the semis (they beat us during the regular season). Tony started and went 2 2/3, and then we brought in Anthony to close. He went 2 1/3, allowing one hit, no runs, and striking out 4. His biggest contributions came at the plate though. Last year, Anthony smashed a homer to left center at St Mary's in the championship game, and this year, in his first plate appearance at St Mary's since that game, he hit a ball to just about the same spot. That gave us a 2-0 lead, and we would make it 3-0, before they would come back and take a 4-3 lead. In the third, Tony and Rolando were on base, and Anthony destroyed a ball to dead left, almost hitting the right fielder in the JV game on the adjacent field. This gave us the lead back 6-4, and after St Mary's again tied it, we scored the final and decisive two runs in the fifth to win it 8-6. Anthony walked, stole second and scored the 8th run.
We brought Anthony back in the championship game, and he went complete. We won 13-8, and Anthony threw seven innings and 125 pitches. Although he allowed 8 runs, only 2 were earned, and Anthony struck out 13, including two in the seventh. Anthony singled, walked twice, scored three runs, and stole four bases. On the season, he hit two homers, scored 14 runs, stole 13 bases, and finished with a slash line of .424/.709/.929. I'm very lucky and happy to have coached Anthony for two seasons and we wish him well next year and for his career at Lakewood.
