Star in soccer and basketball has already committed to playing at Columbia University in the Ivy League.
To say there are many outstanding female athletes at MICDS would be an understatement. But in the end, one really stands out. That would be two-sport star Caroline Militello, 17, a junior who has already agreed to play soccer at Columbia University in the Ivy League. That makes two Ivy Leaguers in the family. Her brother Thomas is a rising quarterback at Dartmouth. Militello who plays forward in basketball and attacker in soccer is the Ladue-Frontenac Patch Female Athlete of the Spring. She stands out in any crowd. Militello comes from quite an athletic family. The blood lines are good. The backyard basketball games are a real show stopper. Their dad, Mark was a standout wide receiver at Country Day School and had a distinguished career at…

Rams have to come from behind to defeat visiting O'Fallon, Illinois 7-6.
Once again MICDS is in the Final 4 of the Missouri Lacrosse tournament. The Rams will host CBC Tuesday in one semifinal game. The Cadets ran all over Lafayette 15-5 in their quarterfinal match. The championships will be contested over Memorial Day weekend, this Friday night, 7:30 p.m. at the Park in Fenton. In the other semifinal game, DeSmet takes on the winner of St. Louis U. High and Eureka. MICDS had to come from behind to defeat O’Fallon, Illinois 7-6 Thursday before an overflow crowd on the Rams artificial turf. More game photos on the Ladue-Frontenace Facebook page. William Moorehead, who stands 6-foot-4 and is going to Providence College led the attack with 3 goals. Other goals were scored by JT Theimann, (two); Stephen Mattingly…

2-nil victory is the 31st consecutive district title for Incarnate Word Academy.
In the blink of an eye, the MICDS soccer season has come to a conclusion. Incarnate Word broke away from a scoreless first half to edge the Rams on their home field 2-nil and won the district title Thursday. There will be no more practices; no more game plans to draw up this year for MICDS. Still, the Rams shall keep their heads held erect. Thirty other teams have had the same season-ending results against the powerful North County Red Knights. This is IWA's 31st consecutive district title. Quite an achievement. “We put the pressure there. I think its tough for anyone to come onto our field and play on our turf,” said IWA’s coach Erin Hesselbach. More photos on the Ladue-Frontenac Facebook page. Next for the Red Knights, they will rematch…

Amber Jones got the solo goal. Rams face Incarnate Word on the Red Knight's Field Thursday for the district title.
Little did MICDS know, but when Amber Jones scored a first-half goal on a rebound from Caroline Militello, that would be the only score of the 1-nil win over a feisty bunch of Clayton Greyhounds in the semifinals of the Class 2, District tournament at Incarnate Word. It was a torturous hot day (for both teams); the grass was tall and scruffy; the Rams were pre-occupied with final exams and there were too many games in too few days. An illogical reasoning would do. More game photos on the Ladue-Frontenac Facebook page. “We didn’t play our best game. We won,” surmised coach Michael Black. The coach stayed around to scout the opponents for the title game, Thursday, 4 p.m. at IWA. The girls had enough soccer on a 90 degree day, and left. Turns…

Villa's distance freshman Hannah Deinas is a star for the future.
“A winner never quits, and a quitter never wins” So true, so true. Ezekiel Elliott, the most prominent athlete to emerge from John Burroughs since the school’s inception in the 1920s was a winner on the MICDS district track Saturday. Consider the fact, between 11 am and 5 p.m., he ran 7 races, counting the preliminaries of the sprints and hurdles. He won six of those races--one got slightly away. More race photos on the Ladue-Frontenac Facebook Page The fact that he lost the 100 meter dash to fellow football back Denzell Conway (MICDS) stuck more in his craw than winning the other six. (See related story about Denzell Conway.) “I was surprised he beat me. I got lost in the moment a little bit winning that 110 high hurdles. He dipped under …

Ladue clashes with Parkway North in baseball; all the local girls lacrosse teams take to the fields.
The rains need to clear out of the area and the fields need to dry up. We are heading into the month of May and the last month of high school competition. Teams still need tune ups for the playoffs, just around the corner. Here's what the locals are doing Monday: Baseball Ladue (15-2) at Parkway North (15-3) This 4:15 game on the Vikings campus takes on significant meaning. Both teams are playing exceedingly well this season. While Lex Kaplan has been ripping the cover off the ball, Rob Ewald has been limiting opposing batters. Daniel Brodksy is hitting .475 for North. Something has to give. Girls lacrosse MICDS (8-3) goes to Eureka Villa Duchesne (3-9) pays a visit to S. Joe (11-3) Burroughs (8-0) is at Lafayette Ladue (6-5) is at Nerinx …
