Fall Sports

News and Summaries

Girls Golf The 2015 golf season is almost complete and once again, the Lady Rams have one of the top teams in the state. 2014 saw the team sweep through the Seminole Athletic Conference Championship, the FHSAA 3A District 5 Championship, the FHSAA 3A Region 2 Championship and finish as FHSAA 3A State Finals Runner-up. Thus far in 2015, the Rams have already captured the Seminole Athletic Conference Championship, the FHSAA 3A District 5 Championship, finished second in the Lady Wildcat Challenge in Hilton Head, South Carolina and third at the prestigious Honda Classic High School Invitational in a field of 18 Championship teams.

7 members from last seasons’ group returned and were joined by one talented freshman. Senior Selin Timur was an All-Conference, all District 5, and 1st team All State performer in 2014. She is back and is poised to have another outstanding season. Selin is from Turkey and spent her summer playing European events. Selin was selected to represent Turkey in the Duke of York Young Champions Trophy event in England and traveled to Kent, England in September to compete against players from over 30 different countries. Fellow

senior Sydney Merchant was also an All- Conference, and All District golfer in 2014. Sydney came to Lake Mary last season from Colorado where she was a 2 time All State golfer. She has played in the US Women’s Amateur along with many top Juniors events. Syd is a very talented athlete who also plays soccer for Lake Mary. She has committed to play golf for the University of North Florida next fall. Another very athletic golfer is Senior Bianca Cruz. Bianca was the Seminole Athletic Conference Individual Champion in 2014. She was also an All District golfer. After golf season ends, Bianca will be back on the basketball court where she was an All-Conference guard for the Lady Rams basketball team. Senior Colomba Martinez was a solid player in 2014 and returns this fall to compete for a top 5 spot. Last season, Colomba worked very hard and by season’s end, she had earned a spot on the State Finals roster. As a Senior, Colomba has proved to be a very valuable member of the 2015 team. 2 talented Sophomores will be major contributors to the teams’ success this fall. Sophomore Macy Somoskey was a top 5 player her entire Freshman season. She was an All-District golfer in 2014 and returns in 2015 with a season of experience and the kind of talent that will have college coaches taking notice. Macy is a very smart golfer, and that makes her a very consistent performer. Sophomore Jenny Kim has had a fantastic summer of golf, gaining experience and confidence with every tournament she played. She is a very physically talented golfer and will now combine that with the confidence she gained in the off season to be one of the top players in the county. Junior Taylor Fisk is in her 3rd season of golf for the Rams. She has been hard at work this summer and has shown great improvement. Incoming Freshman Kayla Li has just joined the team but has quickly shown that her golf skills are considerable. She is a golfer with a bright future at Lake Mary.

The season now moves into the final phase, the Regional and State Finals events. The golf program at Lake Mary High School has a tradition of success and this team plans to continue that success in 2015.

Bowling

The bowling season is winding down and the teams are getting ready for district competition on Monday, October 26th at Airport Lanes in Sanford. The boys bowling team has a record of 8-6 and is being led by the top bowler in the county in Junior Robert Poole. Robert has an average of 230, which is not only the best in the county but would also be a record average for Lake Mary High School if he can maintain it through the end of the season. Also making big contributions to the team are returning bowlers Junior Nick Orefice with an average of 186 and Sophomore James Etzold with an average of 171. The team also consists of one of the best freshman in the county in Lance High, who has an average of 197.

Girls Cross Country After losing 3 seniors from their varsity squad, it

looked likely that the Lady Rams would be having a

rebuilding year. However, the introduction of

three talented, hard working freshmen turned

things around. As we head into the State Series,

the ladies are ranked 1st in Conference and

District, 5th in the "Region of Death" and in the top

ten of the state. The Lady Rams have qualified for

the State Championships four out of the last 5

years, and they are looking to make that five this

season. Leading the team is

Junior standout Daniela Urzua. Daniela's time has

her ranked in the top 5 of the entire state, all

classifications combined. Out of the five races she

has run this season, Daniela has won 1st overall in

four of them, including the prestigious Mt.

Dew Invitational at UF. With her talent and

drive, becoming a 4A state champion would be the

ultimate goal. As talented as Danieka is, a good

cross country team needs five solid runners to

score and that we have. Returners Cheyenne St.

Lewis ad Maggie Lyons are running consistently

well as the team's 2nd and 3rd runners. Freshmen

Maddie O'Brien and Kaelin Tully came on board

this year and made all the difference by rounded

out the Rams top five with increasingly solid

performances. Senior Dina Samaan, Freshman

Caroline Hazen, Sophomores Brianna Simcox and

Angela Jordan, and Junior Nicole Mattos round

out the teams top ten runners. They have their

sights on the Regional race in 2 weeks. They plan

on qualifying for the State Championships for the

4th year in a row. Wish them luck! Go Rams! Girls

cross country won conference. � Daniela Urzua was

1st overall and Cheyenne St. Lewis was 6th both

earned 1st team All Conference. Maggie Lyons and

Maddie O'brien earned 2nd team All Conference

honors!

Cheerleading

The LMHS Competition Cheerleading season is quickly approaching! Our practices will begin October 14 and our first competition will take place November 16. We are hoping and preparing for victory!

Swimming

The boys are having an amazing swim season with a record so far of 4-2 and placing 3rd overall in the SAC swim meet. The boys are led by seniors Ben Whitty, Zac Stout, and Ethan DeRouis and Junior Jacob Finegan who won the SAC swim meet for the 200 Medley Relay. We are very excited for the state series to begin on October 28.

The girls are have a good swim season so far of 3-3 and placing 5th overall in the SAC swim meet. The girls are led by Senior Angela Vazquez, Juniors Daniela Duarte, and Allison Murphy, Sophmores, Natalie Bucci and Nicole Bucci, and Freshman, Ceanna Roddey, Olivia McCaw and Celine Benedico who all placed in the top 10 at the SAC swim meet. We are very excited for the state series to begin on October 28.

Boys Cross Country The 2015 Men’s Cross Country Team has picked up

right where it left off last season. After two state

appearances and a high successful track season the

Rams graduated 3 out of their top 5. This season

the Running Rams have shown they are not

finished just yet.

Two years ago they made their first state

appearance finishing 9th. Last year they fell just

short of the podium with a 5th place finish, the best

in school history. During track season John Lyons

help propel the teams 4x800 relay to one of the

best in the country.

This season the running rams became closer as a

team. With the absence of the one two punch

from Ryan DeGale (Troy University) and Christian

Aman (FSU) the Rams have relied on pack running

to have another successful season.

Early on it was apparent that by sticking together

the Rams would be a force to deal with in 4A once

again. The team has come together, and is faster

than a year ago. The teamwork, and dedication

has paid off and vaulted the Rams to 4th place

currently in 4A.

The Rams have added freshman sensation Canaan

St. Lewis, who just recently broke the schools

freshman record. He currently is the 7th fastest

freshmen in the state. Returning runners, Billy

Field, Sean Griffin, Ethan Golsmith, and Devin

Boyle, have all become better runners than a year

ago. J.V. standout Tommy Conigliaro battle his way

up the depth chart to land a spot on this historic

team.

Next week the Rams will go at it again in the most dominant district, followed by the aptly named region of death. The Rams are looking to qualify for states for the third consecutive year. They will once again make an attempt to be crowned state champs.

Boys Golf

2015 has already been a year for the record books for the Lake Mary Boy’s Varsity Golf Team and the excitement has only just begun. The team is currently in preparation to defend their title as Class 3A State Champions, comprised of many returning players from Lake Mary’s historic 2014 season. The boys are eagerly awaiting another chance to showcase their talents and secure the Class 3A State Championship Title for the second straight year in a row. It’s a thrilling time to be a Ram! This year began with a 1st place finish at the Winter Park Invitational at Rio Pinar Country Club followed by a 1st place finish at the Spruce Creek Hawks Invitational at Spruce Creek Country Club. Our first two day tournament was the Titan Invitational at the Hammock Beach Resort where we competed against the 2014 Class 1A and Class 2A State Championship teams and finished in 1st place. Next, we moved onto the Qdoba Tournament of Champions at the Providence Golf Club. The Qdoba Field was limited to the top three teams in each class from the 2014 FHSAA State Championship. Lake Mary came in 3rd place. As defending champions of the Orlando Sentinel Super Six, Lake Mary hosted this year’s event at the Legacy Club at Alaqua Lakes. Lake Mary finished in a tie for 2nd place. Lake Mary went undefeated in Seminole Athletic Conference matches with a record

of (7-0) and placed 1st in the Seminole Athletic Conference Championship. For the first time in the history of the Seminole Athletic Conference Championship, all five of the Lake Mary’s golfers were named to the First Team All Conference.

Lake Mary began the post season defending their title with a win at the FSHAA District 5 Championship.

Lake Mary will continue the post season advancing to the FSHAA Region 2 Championship on October 20th when Lake Mary will defend their championship title.

This post season will conclude with the FSHAA Class 3A State Championship on November 2nd -4th where the Lake Mary Varsity Boy’s are looking to go Back 2 Back!

While most any team would be satisfied with the boys’ recent track record, and while the year will be one to remember no matter what the outcome; this team will not be content without bringing their all to the State Championship.

Lake Mary Boys Golf is “in it to win it.” Stay posted for more exciting updates.

The Lake Mary Boys Basketball program had another successful summer. The Rams hosted over 150 elementary and middle school basketball players during three great weeks of basketball camp. The Rams also played in close to 30 games this summer, traveling to the University of Florida, UCF, and Rollins to participate in team camps. The team improved in every area, and can't wait to get on the floor this winter.
