The Matanzas High School Band of Pirates unveiled new uniforms at the football team's varsity game against Tocoi Creek on Sept. 2. They are just the second band uniforms in the school's history.
"We are very fortunate that Flagler Schools purchased the uniforms for the band program," said Ryan Schulz, the director of bands for Matanzas High School. "The uniforms were designed by me and Demoulin Uniforms and were made by Demoulin. Former Principal Jeff Reaves asked to get the uniform project started last year and we went to work. It took about six months to produce the uniforms. The students are very excited about the uniforms and will wear them with pride for the many years to come."
Sean Norris and Anya Fox are the Band of Pirates' drum majors.
Matanzas' girls golf team has had three of its seven matches canceled because of rain, including the Sept. 13 tri-match with Tocoi Creek and Pedro Menendez that was scheduled for the King & Bear Course at World Golf Village.
But in the matches the Pirates have played, they are sporting an undefeated record at 5-0, including a double win over Menendez and Flagler Palm Coast on Sept. 8 at Palm Harbor Golf Club. Sophomore Zoe Alred led Matanzas with a 41.
Junior Alexandra Gazzoli missed the match because she was taking a college visit, coach Brandie Alred said. Gazzoli, who finished second at the Class 2A state meet last year, shot a high-school career low of 5-under-par 31 at Palm Harbor in a match against Spruce Creek on Sept. 1.
"She's driving greens on all of the straight par 4's," Brandie Alred said.
