By Staff | Mar 23, 2023

Layton Breckenridge

Senior

Weightlifting

Ida Baker Bulldogs

The senior took home a Lee County Athletic Conference Championship in Olympic weightlifting in the 219-pound division, with a total lift of 440 pounds. He also finished second in traditional, lifting 570 pounds.

“I feel really great taking home a championship, especially since this is my first year competing in weightlifting. It’s really eye-opening to see how strong I’ve become, and I plan to continue and prepare myself for districts by training mentally and physically for the postseason and beyond.”

Melanie Moreno

Sophomore

Softball

Bishop Verot Vikings

Moreno help propel the Vikings to a 4-0 Orange Bowl Tournament record with her bat, driving in 11 runs and smashing two homers throughout the tournament.

“I knew going into this weekend I had to provide some offensive support. I’ve been in a slight slump and my team needed me. I hope to continue my success supporting and helping my team in anyway possible. My job as a player on this team is to sacrifice myself for the better of the team. We plan to just keep taking it game by game and focus on the big picture.”
