Beach awarded top student-athlete
Lady Sandcrab Hailey Beach was named the Ormond Beach Lions Club’s Student-Athlete of the Month for the month of February.
Hailey ranks fourth in her class with a 4.49 GPA, an 1800 SAT and a 27 ACT score. She is a member of the National Honor Society and the Spanish Honor Society. She participates in a variety of community service and church-sponsored projects, including the Tim Tebow Foundation’s “Night to Share”.
Beach is a four-year Seabreeze soccer player. She was the team’s goalie and captain, and helped lead the team to the district championship this year. She also served as team captain of the school’s flag football team during her sophomore and junior years. She plans to attend the University of Florida in the fall, where she plans to pursue a career in the medical field.
Fagan picks The ‘Noles
Mainland’s Cyrus Fagan, the No. 2-ranked safety in the state, has committed to Florida State University. The soon-to-be senior, and four-star prospect, was heavily recruited by all of the nation’s top colleges, including Alabama, Auburn, Georgia and defensive-minded LSU.
“I felt like it was time,” Fagan said. “FSU has been my dream place since childhood.”
Fagan will soon join former Buccaneer A.J. Westbrook, who currently plays for the Seminoles, but, until then, he’s focused to win a state championship with Mainland this upcoming season.
Mainland track grabs titles
The Mainland boys placed fourth at Hammock Hardware’s East Coast Classic Friday, Feb. 26, at Flagler Palm Coast.
Adrian Killins continued to prove he is one of the fastest runners in the country, winning the 100- and 200-meter championships. Demarcus Adams won the long jump title with 21 feet 8.5 inches; 4x400-meter relay (Malcolm Reed, Adrian Killins, Alex Mack and Demarcus Adams), third; Steffan Mallory, third in the triple jump; Kevin McCrary, fourth in the shot put. For the girls, the 4x100-meter relay (Danielle Hernandez, Josilin Mobley, Kayla Littlefield and Sherri Thompson) took third.
Mainland’s next big track event will be at the Spruce Creek Invitational at 8 a.m. Saturday, Mar. 5.
