Other recent coaching changes at the school are with the football, boys basketball and volleyball programs. | | | | | Metro Conference baseball tourney winners included Cypress Creek, Freedom, Ocoee, Lake Nona and Wekiva, while Seminole and Boone had close softball wins. | | | | | Freshman phenom Anya Pilgrim and surprising senior Ellie Lazzari led the way. The duo tied for all-around title with scores of 39.65. Behind them were teammates Victoria Nguyen and Leanne Wong at 39.60. | | | | | Tristen Newton (20 points) and the Huskies smothered the Boilermakers 75-60 to become the first back-to-back national champs since 2007. Zach Edey scored 37 for Purdue, but UConn limited the country's second-best 3-point shooting team to 1 for 7 from behind the arc. | | | | | Walter Clayton Jr. transferred from St. Johns in 2023 to join the Gators, who finished 24-12 and reached the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2021.
