Raio, Gilford, Salazar, Struck, Hardy Named High School Boys' Players of the Week

NORTHEAST

Anthony Raio, Half Hollow Hills (N.Y.) 

Anthony Raio has shot himself into history. And he’s not done shooting. The Half Hollow Hills senior became the all-time leading scorer in Suffolk County history when he scored four goals and added four assists in a 22-8 win over Commack (N.Y.) on Saturday.

The North Carolina commit has 255 career goals, eclipsing the previous record set by Nicky Galasso of West Islip (N.Y.). Raio, who has 61 goals and 47 assists on the season, is six goals away from becoming Long Island’s new goals king. Jeff Cohen from Syosset (N.Y.) holds the mark at 260.

“Anthony is a dynamic player who makes the athletes around him better,” Half Hollow Hills coach Connor Hagans said. “He has perfected his craft over the years with hard work, and it has enabled him to have success.”

Also notable: Hayden Cody, Loomis Chaffee (Conn.); Nick Henry, West Islip; Gavin Lynch, Chaminade (N.Y.); Luke Perriello, Brunswick School (Conn.); Mickey Sullivan, Pearl River (N.Y.)

— Dylan Butler 

MID-ATLANTIC

Corey Gilford, Westfield (N.J.) 

The senior goalie was on his game early as Westfield took on six-time defending champion Summit (N.J.) in the Union County Tournament final. Gilford made eight of his 12 saves in the first half to keep the Blue Devils within striking distance. In their regular-season meeting, Westfield fell behind by six goals in the first half in an 11-6 loss. This time, Gilford gave the Blue Devils confidence coming out of the half and the offense was able to rally while he made four more saves to give Westfield a 6-5 win for their first county crown since 2017. Gilford also made 19 saves in their 8-4 semifinal win over Scotch Plains-Fanwood (N.J.).

Also notable: Logan Cassidy, Landon (Md.); Ben Cuomo, Calvert Hall (Md.); Garrett Held, Boys’ Latin (Md.); Timmy Landaiche, Episcopal (Pa.); Bronson Peters, Gerstell (Md.); Mike Ortlieb, Malvern Prep (Pa.); Gus Rocha, Howard (Md.); Moe Sobel, Springside Chestnut Hill (Pa.)

— Justin Feil

SOUTH

Diego Salazar, St. Thomas Aquinas (Fla.) 

In the biggest game of the year, Diego Salazar stepped up in a huge way. The junior attackman scored seven goals in Saturday’s state championship game against Ponte Vedra. The championship effort followed a two-goal performance against Plant (Fla.) in the state semifinal. He scored 69 goals and added 32 assists this year.

Also notable: Alex Ponchock, Benjamin (Fla.); Jayden Vega, Benjamin (Fla.); Brooks Wehman, Cambridge (Ga.); Duncan Zielke, Highland Park (Texas.)

— Justin Boggs 

MIDWEST

Jake Struck, Olentangy Liberty (Ohio) 

Struck now has pretty much every scoring record in Patriots lacrosse (and hockey) history. After becoming Liberty’s career points leader last week, Struck snagged the career goals record this week while scoring 17 goals in wins over in-state foes Olentangy Orange, Worthington Kilbourne and St. Ignatius. He now has 177 goals, 104 assists and 281 points as the reigning Ohio Player of the Year is in the midst of another massive season with 69 goals, 37 assists and 105 points.

Also notable: Fletcher Anderson, Rockhurst Jesuit (Mo.); Cole Fisher, Worthington Kilbourne (Ohio); Lachlan Moffatt, Detroit Catholic Central (Mich.); Charlie Quinn, Western Reserve Academy (Ohio); Luke Sprong, St. Xavier (Ohio); DJ Wojciechowski, St. Xavier (Ohio)

— Jonah Rosenblum

WEST

Teddy Hardy, Colorado Academy (Colo.) 

Senior attackman Teddy Hardy guided the Mustangs to the tournament quarterfinals behind four assists and a hat trick on four shots on goal. Hardy (Denison) recorded four ground balls and four takeaways.

Also notable: Owen Corsi, Cherry Creek (Colo.); JT Cross, Valor Christian (Colo.); Henry Goldberg, Cherry Creek (Colo.); Alec Louder, Arapahoe (Colo.); Harry Luong, Valor Christian (Colo.); Brendan Strader, Mater Dei (Calif.)

The Wildcats clinched their first Division II-A Middle Region track and field championship last week with the 4X100, 4X200 and 4X400 relay teams paving the way by clinching region titles, including a pair of school-record runs. Fletcher Fields, Gabriel Min, Arnett Hayes and Locke Kennedy combined for a 1:29.69 in the 4X200 to set a top mark, while Kennedy, Hunter Hervey, Cates Kennedy and Cash Britt produced a 3:26.30 to take the 4X400 and produce another school record.

Burton also won several crucial face-offs and assisted on the final two clinching goals by teammate Elizabeth Ward.

Adriana Callahan, Page

The senior racked up 16 hits in five District 10-4A tournament games last week scoring five runs, driving in four more and stealing three bases. In a 7-3 win over Nolensville, she batted 4-for-4 with an RBI, run scored and all three stolen bases.

In the second win, Clemmer scattered six hits with two earned, recording eight strikeouts over eight innings for the win in the circle. She managed four Ks in the five-inning opening win.

Carter Cumming, Independence

The steady senior helped lead the Eagles into the Class 4A Sectional round by going 2-for-3 with three runs scored and another driven in as Independence topped Lincoln County 11-0, avenging a 2-1 walkoff loss in the Region 5-4A semifinals when Cumming went 2-for-3. He added another run and RBI in a 10-2 elimination game against Nolensville.

Gavin Johnson, Centennial

Miller Mabury, Battle Ground Academy

The senior set a couple PRs at the DII-A Middle Region meet by clearing 23-5 1/2 in the long jump and 6-6 in the high jump – both region wins. His long jump broke his own school record and is the fourth best jump in the state this season regardless of classification.

McGowan took the loss in a 2-0 championship setback against Creek Wood scattering four hits with just one earned five Ks and a walk over six innings.

They're off! New Delaware Derby highlights 2025 horse racing season at Delaware Park


It’s time to pull back the curtain on the 88th season of live thoroughbred racing at Delaware Park.A nine-horse field is scheduled to go to the post at 12:35 p.m. on May 14, the first of eight races scheduled on the opener of 75 live racing days through Oct. 11.A lot of familiar faces will be returning among the jockeys and trainers scheduled to compete, but there are some schedule changes and a new stakes race that should add some excitement at the Stanton oval.Racing scheduleRacing will be held weekly on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday for most of the meet, although there will be no racing on May 15.Need a break? Play the USA TODAY Daily Crossword Puzzle.

Honor D Lady and jockey Jose Ortiz win the 2024 Delaware Handicap on July 7. Delaware Park's marquee race has been moved to the fall this year and will be run on Sept. 28.

Friday racing will be added on May 30, June 6 and 13, and each Friday from July 4 through Aug. 15. Two Sunday cards – on Sept. 14 and Sept. 28 – will also be held.

First post time will be 12:35 on each racing day.

Big new race: The Delaware Derby

It won’t rival the big one in Kentucky, but Delaware Park is finally throwing its hat – in this case a derby – into the ring with a new race that could attract some of the horses who ran in America’s most famous race on May 3.

The inaugural $200,000 Delaware Derby will be held on Saturday, June 14 as part of a card including the Grade III, $300,000 Delaware Oaks, a 1 1/16-mile test for 3-year-old fillies that is traditionally the track’s second-biggest race.

Erricka Sumatra likely had the largest hat - designed by Shontay Raquel of Atlanta - at the Kentucky Derby on May 3 at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. We'll find out how far Delaware horse racing fans are willing to take their fashion on June 14 during the inaugural Delaware Derby, which will include hat and bonnet contests at Delaware Park.

The 1 1/16-mile Delaware Derby could potentially attract some colts who ran in the Kentucky Derby and/or Preakness who could see a win in Delaware as a springboard to bigger 3-year-old summer targets, like the Haskell Stakes in July at Monmouth Park or the Travers Stakes at Saratoga in August.

The track will have several promotions on Delaware Derby Day, including T-shirt and hat giveaways while supplies last, a Delaware-themed derby and bonnet hat contest, special Delaware-themed cocktails served in commemorative cups, and kids activities including pony rides, balloon sculptures and face painting in the grove.

Delaware Handicap moves to fall

The Grade III Delaware Handicap, which has traditionally been run in early July, will be contested on Sunday, Sept. 28. The track’s biggest race will have a purse of $400,000.

The DelCap has also been shortened to 1 ⅛ miles for only the second time in its 88-year history. The race was contested at 1¼ miles – known as a rarely long distance for fillies and mares – in every year but one from 1951-2022.

Delaware Park officials shortened the race to 1 3/16 miles two years ago, and cut another 16th of a mile this year.The new date and distance could position the Delaware Handicap as a prep race for the Breeders’ Cup Distaff, which is also 1 ⅛ miles and will be run five weeks later, on Nov. 1, at Del Mar in southern California.Leading trainer returnsThe race for leading trainer may end on the opening day of the meet.Jamie Ness has led in wins in each of the last 10 years, and 12 times overall. He has horses entered in five of the eight races on the May 14 card, while no other trainer has more than three entered.Jamie Ness has led Delaware Park trainers in wins for 10 consecutive years, and 12 times overall.“We have been doing this for 25 years and we have slowly built this up,” Ness told Delaware Park racing information coordinator Chris Sobocinski. “We are in a region that allows me to have strings at multiple tracks and still be able to manage it right. Delaware Park is the central spot, which is why it’s pretty much our home base.”Ness has won at nearly a 25 percent clip over the last five years at Delaware Park, with an average payoff of $5.50. Last year, his entries won at a 30 percent rate on both the dirt and turf courses. He won 49 percent of the time with favorites, 23 percent with 2-year-olds, 31% with 3-year-olds and 28% with maidens and claimers.In other words, every time he sends one out, pay attention.Don’t sleep on this trainerGreg Compton doesn’t have the sheer number of horses to compete with Ness, but he finished a career-high sixth in the Delaware Park trainer standings last year and is returning to Stanton after finishing fifth at the ultra-competitive meet at Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs, Arkansas, this spring.“We should be coming to Delaware with between 40 to 50 horses that we think will help the program from top to bottom pretty well,” Compton told Sobocinski.Compton has the potential to have two strong entries – Kinzie Queen and G W’s Girl – in the Delaware Oaks. He also trains Auto Glide, who won the $175,000 Battery Park Stakes at Delaware Park last year.Other prominent trainers expected to compete in Stanton this year include Edward Allard, Lynn Ashby, Brett Brinkman, Keri Brion, Gary Capuano, Gary Contessa, Cathal Lynch, Graham Motion, Kerri Raven, McLean Robertson, Andrew Simoff, Michael Stidham and Karin Wagner.Jockeys to watchFive of the top seven finishers in last year’s jockey standings – Jaime Rodriguez, Julio Hernandez, Carol Cedeno, Jose Batista and Daniel Centeno – are scheduled to ride at least once on the opening day card.Daniel Centeno rides Miss Marissa to victory in the 2021 Delaware Handicap. The veteran jockey is back at the Stanton oval after finishing seventh in the Delaware Park standings with 24 victories last season.A new rider to watch is Martin Chuan, who finished 14th with 13 winners at Oaklawn Park this spring and has been riding recently at Laurel and Penn National.Contact Brad Myers at bmyers@delawareonline.com.
