The Samuel P. Haven National High School Soccer Championship finals finished up over the holiday weekend at the Rosow Davies National Football Stadium with the senior boys and girls game being decided.

C.R. Walker beat Bishop Micheal Eldon 1-0 to win the seniors girls division.

The lone score came on an own goal by Bishop Michael Eldon.

Despite being on the losing end, Edisa Bain of Micheal Eldon won MVP and the Golden Boot Award, leading the tournament with 5 goals. Raynia Russell of C.R. Walker was named the tournament’s best goalie, winning the golden glove.

In the nightcap, Lyford Cay International School played a hotly contested match against government high, winning 1-0 thanks to a late penalty kick by Michael Massey.

For his clutch kicking, Massey would be named MVP. Lyford’s Vance Wheaton also won the golden glove award as the top goalie of the tournament.

GHS’s Peter Tilusnord would won the golden boot award for the tournament’s top goal scorer along with Lucaya International School’s Andrew Lane and Alvaro Espero.

The three had five goals apiece.

Baseball

Arizona Diamondbacks prospect Kristian Robinson was reinstated to baseball earlier this year after being sidelined for three years with legal and visa issues.

Robinson has been preparing for game action in extended Spring training ever since.

Robinson is still only 22 years old, with a ton of physical upside.

If he can find his form, don’t be shocked if he isn’t in the majors sooner rather than later.

Martial Arts

Christian Deleveaux is a martial artist residing in Yokohama, a city in the Tokyo metropolitan area in Japan.

He is a devotee of Shinkyokushin, Karate, a stand-up style that emphasizes a more pragmatic approach to fighting.

Chris and I had a lengthy conversation about his journey to the top of Japanese amateur martial arts.

Chris is an interesting guy with an interesting story.
