Rangeley High School spring sports previews
RANGELEY SOFTBALL
Coach: Erin Pathiakis (1st season)
Last season: 7-10, made Western D semifinals
Top returners: IF Karissa Allen (Sr.), IF Samantha Olivieri (Sr.), IF Angela White (Sr.), IF Hayley White (Sr.), IF/OF Emma Christensen (Jr.), IF/OF Devon Fay (Jr.), IF/OF Aurora Wetherill (Jr.), IF/OF Lauren White (Jr.), IF/OF Allie Hammond (So.), IF/OF Carina Pathiakis (So.), IF/OF Dagmar Wetherill (So.)
Key newcomers: UT Brooke Durrell (Sr.), UT Michelle Jaffarian (Sr.), OF Savanna Giguere (So.), IF/OF Sandra Campbell (Fr.), IF/OF Chantal Carrier (Fr.), IF/OF Emily Carrier (Fr.), IF/OF Becca Walton (Fr.)
Outlook: Although Rangeley has only 79 students in the high school, the Lakers have 18 girls on the team. Eleven of them played last season, and seven started. Angela White is a solid pitcher and there are five others on the roster who can also pitch.
Coach's comment: "I see definite potential, and it's a matter of whether or not they can work as a team to make it happen."
Baseball
Coach: Mark Gordon (4th season)
Last season: 12-4, won Class D state championship
Top returners: Quinn Philbrick (Sr., OF), Nik Bliss (Sr., IF-P), Zack Abbott (Jr., 1B), Ross Gordon (Jr., P-IF), Andrew Terelsky (Sr., 3B), Spencer Bean (Sr., OF), Dylan Bean (Sr., OF), Nick Bridges (Jr., OF), Alex Rodway (Jr., SS), Jordan Richard (So., P-3B), Spencer Johnson (So., OF) Zeke Hall (So., OF)
Key newcomers: Pat Anthony (Jr., P-IF-OF), Craig Marshall (Jr., C-OF), Alex Morton (Fr., C-OF), Eric White (Fr., UT), Stephen Heath (Fr., UT), Deron Decelles (Fr., IF), Connor Durgin (Fr., UT)
Outlook: Although the Lakers graduated a lot of talent from last season's state championship team, they return a number of players and should be a contender in Western D again. Philbrick is back after missing last season with a knee injury, and Anthony and Marshall join the team after attending Carrabassett Valley Academy last year.
Coach's comment: "I think we still have a pretty solid team."
