The Seacoast high school Athletes of the Week for May 11-17 are Spaulding High School boys lacrosse player Maverick Cates and Exeter High School outdoor track athlete Karlee Norris.
The weekly polls run each Monday through midnight Thursday, and can be found at seacoastonline.com/sports and fosters.com/sports. The honors are presented by York County Community College.
Norris joins previous girls winners this spring: Traip Academy girls lacrosse player Sam Latchaw, Spaulding softball player Meagan Uraskevich, Winnacunet softball player Lucy Gelbstein and Exeter girls lacrosse player Riley Benevides.
Cates joins previous boys winners this year: Oyster River High School baseball player James Saunders and Spaulding High School track athlete Caleb Plante, Spaulding baseball player Garrett Truax, Winnacunnet baseball player Harvey Reynoso and Exeter baseball player Ethan Battles.
Norris won the online poll by receiving over 33% of the votes, totaling 347. St. Thomas Aquinas softball player Mattie Williams finished second with 282 votes.
Oyster River lacrosse player Ashlyn Szelog received 217 votes, Winnacunnet softball player Arden Langmaid had 121 votes and York softball player Sarah Orso had 69 votes, to round out the five nominees.
Norris won the 300 hurdles (51.01 seconds) and was third in the 100 hurdles (18.24), as Exeter placed second in a three-team meet at Nashua North on Tuesday, May 12.
"Karlee is an incredibly hard worker, she has been so focused on improving her hurdle form and had some really nice performances recently," Exeter track coach Laura Smith said. "300 hurdles are definitely her strongest event. It is ironic that she won, because she will unfortunately be missing the Seacoast meet (Friday, May 22) due to an injury at practice. It is such bad timing, and hopefully this win will help her heal quickly to be ready in time for (Division I) next week."
Cates won the online poll by receiving nearly 37% of the votes, totaling 426. Oyster River lacrosse player Jeff Keyes finished second with 308 votes.
Dover lacrosse player Parker Ketcham had 181 votes, Marshwood baseball player Sam Therrien had 151 votes and Portsmouth baseball player Zavier Lampert had 100 votes, to round out the five nominees.
Cates recorded 25 saves in Spaulding's 15-5 loss to Kingswood on Friday, May 15.
"Maverick has put together a solid season for us and it’s nice to see him recognized," Spaulding head coach Ben Gregoire said. "He’s worked hard, and has been an important part of our team throughout the year. He competes and continues to improve each week. A standout performance was our win against Merrimack Valley where he made some big time saves. We’re happy to see him earn this honor."
