Spring 2024 Item All-Stars

2 SATURDAY, JULY 6, 2024 ITEM ALL-STARS SPRING 2024 

Baseball 

Josh Doney 

St. Mary’s 

(Junior) 

Do-it-all Doney was exactly that for the 

Spartans, leading them to the state championship 

game in Division 3. Despite a tough loss to 

Oakmont Regional – no shame in that – it was a 

spring to remember for the lefty. Doney (93 K) 

led St. Mary’s in innings pitched (74), wins (9), 

ERA (0.65), complete-game shutouts (4), and 

was named MVP of the Doug Mullins Memorial 

Baseball Tournament. 

Nick Berube 

Swampscott 

(Junior) 

An “excellent ballplayer,” according to coach 

Joe Caponigro, Berube only struck out four times 

this season – how’s that for a statistic? In total, 

the Swampscott star batted .373 with 28 hits, two 

home runs, 12 RBI, and 14 runs. He also swiped 

eight bags. 

Will McCafferty 

Lynn Tech 

(Senior) 

He certainly had the eye of the Lynn Tech 

Tiger. McCafferty finished a successful career 

with a .395 batting average to go with 18 runs, 

seven steals, and a Commonwealth Athletic 

Conference Pitcher of the Year award (72 K, 

2.25 ERA, 8-1 record). “In addition to being a 

great leader and impact player on our team, his 

greatest stat recorded was not what he did on the 

field, but off it,” said coach Eddie Lewis. 

Cam Connolly 

Peabody 

(Senior) 

Your Northeastern Conference Player of 

the Year – and for good reason. For the 17-4 

Tanners, Connolly pitched 65 1/3 innings, 

striking out 79 batters with an ERA of 1.39. He 

wasn’t too shabby at the plate, either, with a .302 

average to go with 19 hits. 

Cam Soroko 

Saugus 

(Junior) 

Soroko was named a Northeastern Conference 

All-Star this season, keeping Saugus fans 

entertained at the ballpark all spring long. He’ll 

play Division 1 baseball at Bryant University 

this fall. Standout games from Soroko included 

an April matchup in which he threw a complete 

game against Shawsheen (96 pitches, 11 K) 

and another 11-strikeout, three-hit performance 

against Swampscott. 

Morenel Castro 

KIPP 

(Senior) 

Frankly, a KIPP Academy legend with a 

polished record on the football field and baseball 

diamond, Castro did it again this spring. He hit 

one of the longest home runs Fraser Field saw 

this season back in April, and completed his 

career with a strong batting average. 

Alijah Wallace 

Lynn English 

(Senior) 

Lynn English fell just short of the state 

tournament – missing the action by one game 

– but Wallace was on point from beginning to 

end. The pitcher went 5-0 this season with a 2.76 

ERA and 30 strikeouts. 

Tyler Adamo 

Lynnfield 

(Junior) 

A two-year captain for the Pioneers, Adamo 

certainly backed up his title with a .427 average, 

32 hits, 19 RBI, and 16 stolen bases. The Cape 

Ann League Large Player of the Year picked up 

four saves on the mound, to boot. 

Selections by The Item staff were based on coaches' 

recommendations, individual accomplishments, and 

overall impact on team success.

ITEM ALL-STARS SPRING 2024 

SATURDAY, JULY 6, 2024 3 

Baseball 

Almani Gerardo 

Lynn Classical 

(Senior) 

What a senior season it was for leadoff man 

Gerardo, who led Lynn Classical with a .390 

batting average. He also stole 25 bags and was 

named an Agganis All-Star for his efforts. He’ll 

suit up for Franklin Pierce next season and “will 

be tough to replace,” according to first-year 

coach Leon Elwell. 

St. Mary's Josh Doney 

Chris Cannuscio 

Marblehead 

(Senior) 

If you watched a game at Seaside Park in 

Marblehead this spring, Cannuscio was probably 

the one wheeling-and-dealing on the mound, 

while also delivering at the plate. He batted 

.385 this season with 25 hits and 18 RBI. The 

Magician also recorded six wins with a 1.41 

ERA and 60 strikeouts across 59 2/3 innings. 

FAITH.

Softball 

Abby Bettencourt 

Peabody 

(Senior) 

Off to Brown University to suit up for the 

softball team, Bettencourt left it all on the 

diamond for Peabody this spring. At the plate, 

she batted .638 with 51 hits, 39 runs, 32 RBI, 

and eight HR. On the mound, the ace delivered 

with a 0.96 ERA alongside 186 strikeouts and 14 

wins across 117 innings pitched. For a four-year 

career, Bettencourt made history after being 

named the Northeastern Conference Player of the 

Year in each and every one of them. 

Tessa Francis 

Marblehead 

(Sophomore) 

For Marblehead’s softball team, which 

shocked the state with a trip to the Final 4 in 

Division 2, Francis commanded the ship. In 

the circle, she tossed 156 innings with 269 

strikeouts, 20 wins, and a stellar ERA of 0.94. 

Nevaeh Eth 


(Senior) 

A do-it-all shortstop, Lynn Classical star Eth 

made her mark in her last high school season – 

and then some. She batted .525 to go with seven 

triples, three home runs, 30 RBI, and 32 runs. 

The Ram was named a Greater Boston League 

All-Star for her production. 

Logan Lomasney 

Peabody 

(Senior) 

In a Peabody offense chock full of power, 

Lomasney provided a lot of it with eight 

home runs this spring. For the 18-3 Tanners, 

who reached the Round of 16 in Division 1, 

Lomasney finished with a .494 batting average to 

go with 38 hits, 35 runs, and 32 RBI. 

Morgan Hubbard 

Lynnfield 

(Junior) 

“Clearly one of the best players on the North 

Shore,” as said by coach Hector Longo, and it’s 

hard to disagree. The junior shortstop went home 

with a .478 average and struck out just twice this 

season. Add 25 runs, 18 RBI, and a home run, 

and what a season it was for the Pioneer. “It felt 

like from the opening game of the year, every hit 

she had was huge,” Longo said. 

Gigi Aupont 

Bishop Fenwick 

(Senior) 

Despite the Crusaders being ineligible for 

the MIAA state tournament due to a schoolwide 

ban, Aupont made the most of her regular 

season. In 69 innings pitched, she impressed 

with 116 strikeouts, six wins, and a 1.65 ERA. 

Taylor Deleidi 

Saugus 

(Junior) 

Saugus didn’t have much depth with its 

pitching, so Deleidi started all 21 games for 

the Sachems and pitched all but two innings. 

The end result was successful, however, as the 

ace went home with 10 wins, 73 strikeouts, and 

nearly 134 innings pitched. Offensively, she was 

second on the team in batting average (.403) 

alongside 21 runs and 13 RBI. 

Olivia Barletta 

Swampscott 

(Junior) 

A junior captain for the Big Blue, Barletta 

caught eyes with a .528 average, .830 slugging 

percentage, 25 runs, 10 doubles, and two home 

runs. Better yet, she stole 14 bases and was “a 

great captain, student, and kid,” as said by coach 

Brittany Coppinger. 

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE 

2024 ALL-STAR ATHLETES



Softball 

Arianna Laboy 

Lynn English 

(Senior) 

With the turnaround Lynn English’s softball 

team has made the last two seasons, a big reason 

for that has been star Bulldog Laboy. In the 

circle, she was good for nearly 10 strikeouts any 

given night – on top of reliable production at the 

plate. Better yet, she showed out in the Agganis 

Game with two strikeouts and just three hits 

allowed across four innings. 

Peabody's Logan Lomasney 

Brooke Moloney 

St. Mary’s 

(Junior) 

Moloney was everywhere for the Spartans 

this spring. Nearly every outing, she went home 

with multiple hits and a handful of RBI. She 

was named MVP of the John Holland Memorial 

Softball Tournament, with her best game of the 

season coming against Concord-Carlisle (5-for- 

5, 4 R, 2 RBI).

Boys lacrosse 

Ian Brown 

Lynn 

(Junior) 

The Jets failed to make the state 

tournament this season, but Brown put on 

a show and led Lynn on, nearly, a nightly 

basis. From his six-goal performance against 

Lowell to three consecutive hat-tricks 

(Somerville, Salem, Mystic Valley), Brown 

was more than reliable. 

Aiden Haight 

Peabody 

(Junior) 

You could say he’s one of the best goalies 

in the Bay State, and it’d be hard to argue. For 

the Tanners, Haight was the team’s Defensive 

Player of the Year with 272 saves, a 63.5 save 

percentage, and 45 ground balls between the 

pipes. 

Kelan Cardinal 

Lynnfield 

(Junior) 

Cardinal made his presence felt in more ways 

than one. Sometimes, he would net a handful of 

goals, while other times, he would go home with 

five or six assists. In only three years, the Cape 

Ann League Player of the Year is already first 

all-time in program history with 233 points. 

Joey Marshall 


(Senior) 

Fenwick was ineligible to compete in the 

MIAA state tournament due to a school-wide 

suspension, but Marshall made the most of his 

regular season. Not only did he score seven 

goals in a game against Hamilton-Wenham – yes, 

seven – the Crusader finished with 41 goals and 

21 assists for a total of 62 points. 

Liam Keaney 

Swampscott 

(Junior) 

He’s one of the more dynamic players on the 

North Shore, who sported a nine-point game this 

season with four goals and five assists against 

Saugus. Keaney, a playmaker Magic Johnson 

would admire, dished out 49 assists to go with 

41 goals. 

Johnny Lucas 

Peabody 

(Senior) 

He polished it off with an MVP award in the 

Agganis Game (2 goals), but Peabody’s Lucas 

was on a tear all spring long. As the Tanners’ 

team MVP, the do-it-all defenseman scored 17 

goals, facilitated 14 assists, and scooped up 160 

ground balls. 

Jason Rothwell 

Swampscott 

(Sophomore) 

The Big Blue, helmed by coach Geoff 

Beckett, surprised a lot of people this spring with 

a strong run in the Division 4 state tournament 

(Final 4). A big reason for that was Rothwell, 

who can hold his own against any goal-scorer in 

the area. The sniper finished the spring with 51 

goals and 16 assists. 

CONGRATULATIONS TO 

ALL THE ITEM ALL-STARS 

FOR A FANTASTIC SEASON 

Rep. Dan Cahill - Lynn



Boys lacrosse 

Cam Waldman 

Marblehead 

(Senior) 

This Marblehead Magician was, well, exactly 

that with 42 goals and 11 assists this spring. 

He played a big role in his team’s 11 wins. 

Despite a heartbreaking overtime loss in the 

state tournament, Waldman came to play every 

night and made his presence felt in a tough 

Northeastern Conference. 

Jake Vana 

St. John’s Prep 

(Senior) 

In Michael Jordan-esque fashion, Vana 

completed a legendary high school career 

with seven state championships (7-0 across 

hockey, lacrosse, and soccer). After another 

title-winning season with The Prep this 

spring, Vana scored 39 goals and dished out 

22 assists for a total of 61 points – physical 

play and leadership, included. 

St. John Prep's Jake Vana 

Will Norton 

Lynnfield 

(Junior) 

A pure goal-scorer – that’s the only way to 

describe him. This season, Norton was named 

Lynnfield’s Offensive Player of the Year with a 

single-season record of 96 goals. For a career, 

the sniper has netted 194 to lead an explosive 

Pioneer offense. 

Salem, MA 

(In Vinnin Square, next to Staples) 

You are all stars in the making! 

Congratulations and Shine On! 

Move Better, Feel Better, Live Better.

Girls lacrosse 

Brooke Lomasney 

Peabody 

(Junior) 

Blink, and you just might miss Peabody’s 

Lomasney plowing down the field in an instant. 

The Tanner finished with 81 goals and 56 assists 

for a total of 137 points. The captain 

also eclipsed the program’s 

career point record (252), 

one that stood for seven 

years. 

Coco Clopton 

Swampscott 

(Senior) 

A senior captain, Clopton led by example on 

the turf. The Swampscott star broke the school’s 

career goals record (172) as she prepares for 

a collegiate career with UMass Lowell. This 

spring, she netted 59 goals to go with 34 assists. 

“In addition to driving the team’s offense, she 

was the primary draw control specialist,” said 

coach Al Eaton. 

Kylie Bloom 


(Junior) 

A player who did a little bit of everything for 

the Crusaders, Bloom scored 30 goals and dished 

out 30 assists this spring. Add strong defense 

and hustle on any given night, and you’ve got 

yourself a great player representing your school. 

Swampscott's Coco Clopton 

Maddie Forbes 

Marblehead 

(Junior) 

There were a handful of hat-tricks, a four-goal 

game, and even a five-goal performance from 

Forbes this season. The Magicians’ offensive 

threat most nights, she scored 40 goals and 

facilitated 25 assists for a total of 65 points.



Girls lacrosse 

Ally Bettencourt 

Peabody 

(Junior) 

Madi Barrett 

Peabody 

(Junior) 

Ava Nason 

St. Mary’s 

(Sophomore) 

The Tanners finished with the Northeastern 

Conference crown this season, and it’s hard 

to think that would’ve happened without 

Bettencourt. The dynamic goal-scorer finished 

with 54 of them, to go with 35 assists and a total 

of 89 points. 

Avery Laundry 

Swampscott 

(Junior) 

Eaton describes this star player as “not 

afraid to go to goal, and capable of scoring 

from difficult angles.” Well, I’d have to agree. 

Laundry scored 55 goals, dished out 20 assists, 

and was successful in the draw circle, too. 

“Avery is the one to watch next season,” Eaton 

added. 

Talk about a dynamic goal-scorer – and, I 

mean, dynamic – Barrett was exactly that this 

spring. She eclipsed the 50-goal mark (52) and 

even dished out 17 assists in the process. Better 

yet, in early May, Barrett secured her 200th 

career point. 

The Spartans picked up 11 wins before 

meeting their end against powerhouse Nauset in 

the state tournament. As for how the Spartans got 

there, look no further than Nason, who led the 

statistics categories, nearly, every game. Back in 

April, she scored eight goals in not one, not two, 

but three consecutive contests. 

Taylor Valiton 

Lynnfield 

(Junior) 

Valiton has taken the high school world by 

storm and did it again her junior year, scoring 

97 goals and eclipsing the 100-point mark (108). 

But that’s not all. She also controlled 148 draws, 

scooped up 18 ground balls, and recorded four 

interceptions for the Pioneers. 

Lynnfield's Taylor Valiton 

Kathryn Commoss 

Marblehead 

(Freshman) 

Commoss made her presence felt all spring 

long, scoring 40 goals and dishing out 14 assists. 

For coach Annie Madden’s Magicians, Commoss 

played an important role in the team’s seven 

wins.


Boys Tennis 

Mark McDuffee 


(Senior) 

A three-year starter for The Prep, McDuffee’s 

Catholic Conference All-Star nod was welldeserved 

this season. Plus, he received his team’s 

Coach’s award. He went 19-1 with his doubles 

partner, Alex Melville, and sports a career record 

of 49-3. 

Dan Levin 

Lynnfield 

(Senior) 

Levin checked off a few more boxes in a 

prolific career with the Pioneers. He finished 

18-1 (career record of 66-7) and was named 

Cape Ann League Player of the Year. It’s the 

second MVP nod for the first singles star. 

Mika Garber 

Marblehead 

(Senior) 

Alex Melville 


(Senior) 

Also a Catholic Conference All-Star, Melville 

put on a show with his doubles partner, Mark 

McDuffee, to sport a 19-1 record. He’s 37-2 

all-time, received the Coach’s award this spring, 

and the duo secured the winning point in a 

three-setter against Concord-Carlisle to keep the 

Eagles undefeated. 

Charles Schepens 

Swampscott 

(Senior) 

The Big Blue advanced to the Final 4 this 

season, and it’s hard to think they could have 

done so without Schepens. The always-reliable 

fi r s t s i n g l e s p l a y e r w e n t 9 - 1 i n t h e N E C a n d 

fi n i s h e d t h e s p r i n g w i t h 1 6 w i n s . “ H e w a s a 

relentless, focused and extremely talented 

tennis player,” said coach Jen Bishop. 

This senior went out with a bang. Not only 

does he have a Northeastern Conference Most 

Valuable Player award under his belt, but went 

10-3 this season (5-1 NEC), was all-NEC for 

first singles, and is headed to the University of 

Wisconsin in the fall to study computer science. 

Edward Salazar 

Lynn English 

(Senior) 

Marblehead's Mika Garber 

The captain played “an instrumental role” in 

the Bulldogs reaching the state tournament for 

the first time since 2006, according to coach 

Kerry King. The Greater Boston League All-Star 

won six matches this season at first singles. 

Congratulationsons Item All-Stars!

Paige Martino 

Lynnfield 

(Junior) 

Lily Alves 

Lynnfield 

(Sophomore) 

Amber Sotomayer 


(Freshman) 

Your Cape Ann League Player of the Year – 

and for good reason. This Pioneer received her 

team's Outstanding Achievement award for the 

third consecutive year and sported a 22-3 record 

at first singles. 

Talk about a game-changer. After playing first 

doubles last season, Alves made her presence 

felt at second singles this spring. She went 20-4 

and received Lynnfield’s Most Improved Player 

award for the second consecutive year. 

She was only a freshman this season, but I 

don't think that meant anything to Sotomayer. 

The Ram won a lot of matches in 6-0, 6-0 

fashion and was undefeated at first singles. 

Lacey Murphy 


(Senior) 

Lynnfield's Lily Alves 

Murphy put on a show for the Crusaders 

and went 10-6. Despite Fenwick’s school-wide 

ban on state tournament play, she made the 

most of her spring. “Lacey was a co-captain 

and provided guidance to both experienced and 

new team members. She is a driven athlete who 

is helpful, kind, and fair,” said coach Sharon 

Church. 

Samara Dosch 

Marblehead 

(Sophomore) 

Marblehead’s Rookie of the Year – yes, rookie 

– went 13-3 and only lost one match within the 

tough Northeastern Conference. The Magician 

also won both of her matches in the postseason, 

and was named team captain ahead of next 

spring. 

Congratulations to the 

Item’s All-Star Athletes of 2024 

State Rep. Jenny Armini from 

Marblehead, Swampscott, and Lynn


BOYS TRACK AND FIELD 

Alex Jackson 

Peabody 

(Junior) 

What more is there to say about Jackson? 

Plus, he’s only a junior. He broke Northeastern 

Conference records in shot put and discus this 

season, was the MIAA’s Division 2 shot put 

champion, all-New England in two events, and 

was a New Balance National Championship 

qualifier in shot (14th) , discus (49th), hammer 

(21st). 

Aithan Bezanson 


(Senior) 

This St. John’s Prep Eagle flies down the 

track, and his resume backs it up. The All- 

American was sixth in the country in the 

decathlon, the MIAA’s Meet of Champions and 

Division 1 winner in the pentathlon, and broke 

school records in both events. 

William Cerrutti 

Marblehead 

(Junior) 

All of this, and he’s only a junior. This spring 

for the Magicians, Cerrutti was exactly that. He 

ran a 4:19.65 mile (state champion), 2:01.02 

800m (5th in D3), and was a member of the 

4xMile team that broke a school record at the D3 

relays. 

Zahir Mitchell 

Lynnfield 

(Sophomore) 

The multi-sport athlete received piles of 

hardware this spring, and it’s easy to see why. He 

racked up three top-10 finishes at the Division 

5 state tournament, and was the anchor of the 

Pioneers’ 4x100 school record team. 

Eamonn McHale 

Lynn English 

(Senior) 

McHale was a force to be reckoned with 

on the track. Better yet, he was named Lynn 

English’s Scholar-Athlete of the Year to 

complete a tremendous career in athletics (track 

and swimming). In cross country, he’s been a 

top-five finisher in the Greater Boston League 

multiple times, an All-Star, Division 1 state 

qualifier, and first-place runner in the Lynn All- 

City Meet. 

Scott Amin 

St. Mary’s 

(Senior) 

This Spartan – who was the No. 1 high jumper 

in the state during the season – broke a personal 

record in the event, sporting a 6-6, which is tied 

for first in St. Mary’s history. He also recorded a 

21-8 in the long jump (1st in St. Mary’s history) 

and won the Lynn All-City Meet in both events. 

Lynn English's Eamonn McHale 

Congratulations to all of the Item All-Stars 

from the Lynn Track and Field Coaches



Girls Track AND FIELD 

Alessandra Forgione 

Peabody 

(Junior) 

What a spring it was for Forgione, who was 

crowned Northeastern Conference champion in 

both the javelin and discus. The Tanner placed 

second (javelin) at the Division 2 state meet, 

second in the Meet of Champions, and competed 

in the New England Championships, Penn 

Relays, and New Balance Nationals. Her best 

throw of the season was 132'. 

Jirrelis De Jesus 

Lynn Tech 

(Senior) 

This Lynn Tech Tiger won four events 

(100m hurdles, 200m, high jump, triple jump) 

at the Lynn All-City Meet. She also led Tech 

to the Commonwealth Athletic Conference 

Championship and was its top girl in every dual 

meet. 

Rachael Albert 

Marblehead 

(Senior) 

When it comes to the discus, Marblehead’s 

ace probably wrote the book. With her school 

record toss of 113-11, Albert placed third in the 

NEC championship, third in Division 3, fifth in 

the state, and 14th in New England. 

Marianna Kay 


(Sophomore) 

Kay was a girl on a mission this spring. She 

won the 2-mile in the Catholic Central League 

and was on Fenwick’s third-place 4x400 relay 

team during the league meet. She placed 17th at 

the Weston Twilight Meet, running a personal 

best of 11:43, and “was on the DMR team at the 

Division 5 state relay meet that placed second 

and broke the school record,” according to coach 

Manny Cruz. 

Marblehead's Marrietta O'Connell 

Destiny Okoye 

Saugus 

(Freshman) 

Okoye poured in a top-10 performance 

at Divisionals, and was tied for first in the 

Northeastern Conference with a high jump of 

5-0. She also ran a 13.00 in the 100m and was a 

part of Saugus’ fifth-place 4x100 relay team. 

Marrietta O'Connell 

Marblehead 

(Sophomore) 

O’Connell did it all for the Magicians, and 

can run with the best of them. She ran a 5:10.60 

mile and 11:03.44 2-mile, giving her first-place 

nods for both events in the NEC championship. 

O’Connell was the third best miler in Division 3 

and 11th best 2-miler in the state.


Volleyball 

Long Pham 


(Sophomore) 

“The heart-and-soul of our defense,” 

according to coach Chris LeBlanc, Pham’s 

Greater Boston League All-Star nod was welldeserved. 

Not only did he commit just 15 errors 

on 668 received serves, but collected 361 digs, 

42 aces, and a pair of state tournament wins for 

the Rams – all in just their second season as a 

program. 

Ederick Gonzalez 

Lynn Tech 

(Senior) 

Just call him one of the more versatile players 

in the Bay State. From the basketball court to the 

volleyball court, Gonzalez dominated on both 

this year. He just finished the spring with 156 

kills (8.2 per match), 128 digs (6.7 per match), 

and 40 aces (2.1 per match), helping his Tigers 

reach the second round of the state tournament. 

Cole Morrison 


(Senior) 

Morrison defined the word “playmaker” this 

season – just look at his numbers. Prep’s do-it-all 

man registered 396 assists (913 across his career) 

and averaged 6.7 assists per set. 

Viet Tran 


(Junior) 

LeBlanc refers to Tran as the player who 

“paced our offense all season long,” and it’s hard 

to disagree with that. A captain and GBL All- 

Star, he finished the season with 246 kills (giving 

him 506 across a two-year career), a hitting 

percentage of .131, 181 digs, and 38 aces while 

serving at 89.8 percent. 

Tighe Lusk 


(Senior) 

The Prep picked up 11 wins this season with 

Lusk establishing himself as one of the more 

consistent players on the North Shore. The 

always-reliable Eagle went home with a .490 

hitting percentage and averaged 2.5 blocks per 

set. 

Filipe De Oliveira 

Lynn Tech 

(Senior) 

Tech – in just its second season as a program 

– picked up a state tournament win behind coach 

Kaitlyn Wechsler. A big part of that success 

goes to Filipe De Oliveira, a senior libero who 

fi n i s h e d w i t h 3 4 6 d i g s a n d 2 1 . 6 d i g s p e r m a t c h .
