Results of Boys Track Meet at Dorman

March 9, 2010 Dorman Meet  ...more reports and results to follow

The Mavs Sprint group started their season off on the right foot at the 1st dual meet of the season.  All of their 400 meter competitors came into this meet focused, and all started their season running under 58 seconds.  Top three Mauldin runners in the open 400 were Isaiah Phyall (54.2), Alston Michael Wright (55.4), and Brandon Sissel (55.54).  In the 200 meter dash, Junior newcomer Jackie Smith led Mauldin running a 23.9 followed in closely by Brandon Sissel (24.07), and Isaiah Phyall (24.7).  Jackie Smith also led Mauldin in the 100 meter dash with an 11.4. 
The Hurdlers also did their thing on the track starting their season off with a bang.  Returning Juniors Andrew Benson and Isaac Phyall started off their season in the 110 Hurdles with a fast 16.56 and 16.9, respectively.  They were followed in by Junior Drew Stephens who is new to the Track Team and Hurdles running a 20.56.  Moving to the endurance end of the hurdles, returning Senior, Joseph Hill, set a personal record at the first meet of the season running a 59.6 in the 400 meter hurdles.  Following Joseph in, in the hurdles, were Tyler Pommerenke and Andrew Benson both running them in 1:06. 
The 4x100 relay, one of the hardest races based on accuracy, precision, technique, and speed, came in 2nd to Dorman by a small margin of 2 seconds.  Team members include:  Brendan Ryan, Jackie Smith, Daniel Lewis, and Andre Clarke.  On the other hand, the ‘A’ Team 4x400 was disqualified due to a false start, but the ‘B’ Team had no problem stepping in for them running the relay in 3:46.
Overall, Mauldin boys beat Ninety-Six; 101-41, but sadly lost to Dorman.

Mavs off to strong start under new coach

Defense sparks Mauldin boys lacrosse team

Mavs off to strong start under new coach

 

By Scott Keeler • Tribune-Times Writer • March 10, 2010

 

Mauldin High first-year boys lacrosse coach Wally Crosby had been contacted about assisting the Mavericks last season, but was unable to accept because of conflicting schedules.

 

Crosby's happy that wasn't the case this year, especially considering Mauldin's start. The Mavericks improved to 3-0 after a 15-3 win at Wade Hampton on Thursday.

 

“Defense kept us in our first two games and allowed us to win them,” said Crosby, a Jacksonville, Fla., native who played at Presbyterian College. “Everyone has different styles of play, but for us defensively, we want to be as tough and as physical as possible.”

 

Crosby said the Mavs have three “phenomenal” defensive midfielders in Jonathan Gonzalez, Tim Chappell and senior Tiquention Coleman, who was a standout on Mauldin's football team. Senior captain Austin Grant, Will Craddock and Bennett Trott also lead Mauldin's defensive effort.

 

“I wish Austin was a freshman so he could be around a few more years,” said Crosby. “You can tell the difference if he's not in there, even in practice.”

 

When opponents are fortunate enough to penetrate the defense and get a shot on goal, Crosby has confidence in his goalies — Robert Fuson and Jake Norman — to make the save.

 

“It's really tough to have to pick one of them, so we typically split time between Robert and Jake,” said Crosby. “Whoever had the best practice the day before will typically start. Then we will switch at the quarter or half.”

 

Offensively, midfielders Thomas Reese, Lee Wiles and Carson Barefoot lead the way, along with the attacker brother tandem of Josh and Alec Borgelt. Josh Borgelt will continue his playing career next year at Randolph College.

 

“We score mostly out of the midfield because Josh draws so much attention,” Crosby said.

 

The Mavericks are scheduled to host Hillcrest on Friday. The Mauldin girls team, which also began the season 3-0, will take on the Rams at 5:30 p.m., prior to the boys game.

Boys Tennis Win!

The Tennis Team has started the season very strong with 5 team wins.  We have two home matches this week on Wednesday and Thursday against Riverside and Dorman, respectively.  Both of these visiting teams are strong so come out ,(weather permitting), and support  your MAVS.

Brown, Most Improved-Raziya Prince, Best Offense-Morgan Alexander,  Best Newcomer-Kentra Washington, Maverick Award-Tori Whittenberg, and MVP-Breona Blackwell. Also Coach Stepp brought forward all the other reserve players and let the audience know how valuable and important to the the team that these young ladies are. The evening ended on a sad note as Coach Stepp announced to her players and parents that she was resigning her position as coach. If a coaches success can be measured by the love of her players, than Mauldin High sure lost a great coach on this evening. Thanks Coach Stepp for always putting your players first. All of your players will be better people the rest of their lives because they had you has a coach.
