Athletes of the Week | March 15

By Staff | Mar 14, 2024

Mia Lane

Junior

Softball

North Fort Myers Red Knights

The Red Knights’ leading hitter in just about every offensive category filled the scoresheet last week, going 8-for-13 across three wins, blasting three home runs, driving in seven, and scoring six runs. Through eight games, Lane boasts a .600 average with five homers and 15 RBI.

“I’m feeling great about how my game is going. I didn’t start how I wanted, but I made adjustments and hope to keep up my play as of late. I can see this team going to states. We’re solid offensively, defensively, and we have some unfinished business from last year.”

Gabi Winters

Freshman

Softball

Mariner Tritons

The freshman was dominant in the circle last week for the Tritons, tossing a five-inning no-hitter against Oasis with 12 Ks, and going 4 1/3 innings versus Cape Coral allowing just one hit and striking out nine. She also went 4-for-8 at the plate in those games, hitting a home run, triple, and drove in seven runs.

“I approached this season with lots of confidence in myself. I’ve learned if you have doubts, you will never reach your full potential. I think my success thus far is because I put in the work when no one is watching. Every day I work after school not only to get better, but to reach the goals I have for myself.”
