STARKVILLE – Following the SEC Outdoor Championships, Rémi Rougetet, Marie Rougetet, Abdullahi Hassan and Ramat Jimoh were named to the All-SEC teams.

Athletes are selected for the All-SEC teams based on their event finish at the conference championships. With a top-three finish, athletes are then named to the first, second or third All-SEC teams.

Rémi Rougetet took home the title in the javelin with a massive personal best of 80.49m. Rougetet was named to the SEC first team with his win and was the third Bulldog to win the event since 2018.

Marie Rougetet was named to the second team after her runner-up finish in the hammer. Her throw of 66.50m in the fifth round was a personal best and improved her program and freshman record in the event.

Abdullahi Hassan earned second-team honors after earning second place in the 800m with 1:45.64. He is now a two-time SEC runner-up and All-SEC second team athlete, after finishing in second at both the indoor and outdoor championships.

  • Hingham High School’s boys volleyball team, established four years ago, celebrates its second varsity season.
  • The team honored seniors Kyle Ruccio, Liam Warshaw, Matt Cummings, and Joe Andrews on Senior Night.
  • The seniors have been key to the program’s development and growth.

Four years ago, a group of athletes began a road they hoped would lead to a varsity boys volleyball program at Hingham High School.

After two years competing as an intramural program, that dream came true last year with the first varsity season for the Harbormen netters. They picked up five wins last season and are one victory away from getting to that mark again this year with three matches left to play this week.

Kyle Ruccio, Liam Warshaw, Matt Cummings, and Joe Andrews were recognized for their commitment to the cause on Senior Night before Wednesday’s home game with Scituate High. They left the gym happy after a three-set 25-10, 25-15, 28-26 victory over the Sailors.

Head coach Shawn Nugent praised his senior’s impact with the fledgling program on the court as well as in the locker room. They are the foundation of what he thinks will be more success on the near horizon.

“All four of the seniors have been players, as well as people, that you want to have in your program. They’ve been instrumental in getting this program off the ground,” said Nugent. “Noel and Matt have been with me since the very beginning and have been so important to the development of the program. They both started for me as freshmen. Joe joined us as a sophomore and I finally talked Liam into playing starting his junior year.”

If Nugent ever needed a recruiting video for bringing in new players to the program, Ruccio, Warshaw, Cummings, and Andrews should all be among his very first phone calls. The four seniors shared some memories of their time with the team.

Andrews – “To help build this from the ground up has been awesome. I wasn’t around for the first season, but I’ve really enjoyed the last three years playing with this team. We have an eighth grader on the team with us this year and I’d love to see volleyball grow at the middle school level so there are more players involved when they get to high school.”

Ruccio – “We are a close team so I’m sad to see my senior season coming to an end. I’m hoping to end the season on a good note.”

Warshaw – “I hopped on the bandwagon last year and playing on this team has been an awesome experience. I’ve had the opportunity to play a lot of sports and I probably love playing volleyball the most if I had to rank them. I just like killing the ball.”

Cummings – “I had no experience at all with volleyball before coming out for the team as a scared freshman. It’s been great to see myself, as well as the volleyball program, grow over the last four years. From someone who knew absolutely nothing about the sport to where I am now, it’s been a great experience. I’d love to see the program continue to grow in the next few years.”

Nugent is excited by the future of the volleyball program. He has a specific goal in mind for the direction of the team.

Said Nugent, “We have a very robust girls volleyball program here at Hingham High and one of my goals is to see the boys program get to that same level of success.”

Hingham finishes the final week of the season at home against North Quincy (Monday) and then Milton (Thursday) before closing things out Friday at New Bedford.

BATON ROUGE, La. – The LSU women’s track and field program is signing transfer Salieci Myles, Head Coach Dennis Shaver announced on Tuesday.

Myles is the second signing the Tigers have made in the past year from William Carey University. The previous signing was junior Machaeda Linton who helped the Tigers to silver this past weekend in the 4×100-meter relay at the SEC Championships.

Like Linton, Myles reigns from Jamaica, calling Westmoreland her hometown. Prior to college she attended Rusea’s High School in Lucea, Hanover, Jamaica.

Last outdoor season she claimed the NAIA 100-meter hurdle title with a time of 13.16 seconds (+2.4 m/s) to go along with a title in the 4×100. She also holds one more title in the 100h, two in the 60-meter hurdles and one more in the 4×100. She began her collegiate journey with the Lady Crusaders during the 2022 indoor season.

Myles holds personal-best times of 8.20 in the 60h, 13.22 in the 100h, 7.47 in the 60m and 11.65 in the 100m.
