Rowing

Max Ferguson, representing Miami Beach High School, was awarded the John B. Kelly Cup for winning the Senior Boys Singles Rowing Championship during the Stotesbury Regatta in Philadelphia.

It is the largest and most prestigious scholastic rowing regatta in the nation.

Ferguson is coached by former Olympian Francisco Viacava at the Miami Beach Rowing Club. The Kelly trophy embodies great prestige and an impressive lineage -- awarded to the best high school senior singles oarsman annually for more than 75 years.

Ferguson will attend Harvard University in the fall where he will compete on the college’s crew team.

Tennis

Former U.S. No.1-ranked tennis player and five-time Grand Slam title winner Gardnar Mulloy of Miami was honored with a street signage at the corner of 800 NW 9th Ave. in Miami.

“The street naming is more than an honor to my dad but a tribute to our entire family,” said his daughter, Diane Mulloy. “My grandparents were pioneers of Miami, and the street behind the home that my dad grew up in on Northwest North River Drive is the street that they are naming after him.”
