Fall sport student-athletes win all-county recognition

Two middle school student-athletes were among the Ransom Everglades fall sports athletes who earned first-team all-county recognition from the Miami Herald. Cole Durham '29 and Axel Monssoh '30 helped the boys' golf team win a district title and finish 11th at the state championship under coach Dave Ragan, who was named the Miami-Dade Boys’ Golf Coach of the Year. Volleyball star Addison Pollock '25 and swimmer Kiera Rampersad '25 also won first-team honors in the Herald rankings.

Pollock, who tallied 494 digs, 484 receptions and 73 assists, will continue her volleyball career at the University of Pennsylvania. Rampersad, the RE record holder and district champion in the 100 butterfly (54.76 seconds), will continue swimming at Boston University. 

Former RE student Neimann Lawrence '28, who recently transferred to Miami Northwestern High, also earned first-team recognition as quarterback of the football team. He completed 160 of 249 passes for 2,665 yards and 31 touchdowns.

The Herald noted that Ragan led the boys' golf team to the best finish by any team from Miami at the state championship meet after finishing fourth at the regional championship.

More than a dozen other student-athletes earned second- or third-team honors or honorable mention.
