Maicee Gage– Sophomore, Key West
Softball Outfielder
“Maicee made great adjustments in her at-bat. She looked for a certain pitch in a certain spot and did not miss it – a no-doubter of a shot.” – Jason Garcia, Conchs head coach
When sophomore Maicee Gage stepped up to the plate against a top-notch Archbishop McCarthy pitcher last week, the outfielder had nine hits, all singles, to her name. With two outs and no runs on the board yet for the Lady Conchs, Gage made her first varsity home run count, batting in both of the team’s runs with a single swing of the bat.
“Maicee is a very competitive young lady. When the opportunity arises, she always steps up,” said coach Jason Garcia. Gage batted .385 this season, second for the Conchs, and her .467 on base percentage is tied for the No. 2 spot. For her patience at the plate, unwavering determination and coming in clutch when it mattered the most for her team, Key West’s Maicee Gage is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.
