Athletes of the Week | Oct. 27

By Staff | Oct 26, 2023

Lexi Lenius

Senior

Bowling

Oasis Sharks

Lenius set a new Lee County girls single-game record, rolling a 290 against Bonita Springs that included 11 strikes and a spare.

“During the game, I felt very relaxed and I just took one frame at a time. I didn’t even realize that I had broken a record until someone told me, and I was very excited.”

Pierre Holmes

Junior

Football

Island Coast Gators

Holmes came up with two crucial plays in the final minutes of a 13-7 win over Gateway. He first went up and caught a 15-yard touchdown pass to put the Gators up late, and then broke up the would-be go ahead touchdown as a defensive back on fourth and goal to seal the win.

“I just felt like my team needed me, and I had to do whatever it took to get us the win. I’ve been preparing for moments like this my whole life. And finally, it was time to show the work.”
