ATHLETE OF THE YEAR

Aidan Antonio, Woodbridge, Junior

Woodbridge junior Aidan Antonio signaled what kind of cross country season he would have when he finished first in the Dana Hills Invitational in early September.

The great results kept coming. He finished fifth in the prestigious Woodbridge Invitational, finished first in the Orange County Championships, and won the CIF Southern Section Championships Division 2 race before finishing third in the CIF State finals.

Antonio’s winning time of 14 minutes, 6.4 seconds in the CIF-SS Division 2 final was the second-fastest time of the day among all runners. His third-place time in the CIF State Division II race at Woodward Park in Fresno was 14:50.10, his personal-best time over 5,000 meters.

His winning time of 13:56 in the Orange County Championships was his personal record on a 3-mile course and broke the Irvine Regional Park course record set by three-time Orange County cross country athlete of the year Evan Noonan in 2023 (13:59.4).

Woodbridge also won the boys team championship at the Orange County meet.

Antonio, who qualified for the Nike Cross Nationals, chose his Orange County Championships day as the best day of his junior season.

“Because that gave us the Orange County championships team title,” he said. “And, honestly, it was my best race all season. I felt good the whole race. I was able to close well and I broke Evan Noonan’s record.”

He has impressed Woodbridge coach Bryan Pacheco.

“First of all, he’s obviously a very talented athlete,” Pacheco said. “But what’s impressive about Aidan is his focus. He’s not playing around, he’s not goofing off, and every aspect of what he is doing in the sport – his training, his diet, his sleeping – is highly controlled to optimize his performance.”

Antonio, whose junior year of athletics continues in this spring’s track and field season, gets special enjoyment from being in a very good cross country program. (Woodbridge finished fourth in the CIF-SS Division 2 finals team standings.)

“It’s great having a team like that to run with you,” Antonio said. “The guys are always pushing me to go faster even when they’re behind me. You see them improve and then I’ve got to keep up and keep improving, too.”

COACH OF THE YEAR

Dave Luciani, San Clemente

Dave Luciani of San Clemente is the Orange County boys cross country coach of the year.

The Tritons boys team, led by juniors, finished second in the CIF State Championships Division I team standings, behind Redondo Union. San Clemente was second to Beckman in Division 1 in the CIF Southern Section Championships and was third in the Orange County Championships.

Luciani, 45, completed his third season as San Clemente’s head coach. Also a runner himself, Luciani finished 10th in his age group in the Chicago Marathon this year.

PLAYER OF THE YEAR

Layli Ostovar, Mater Dei, Senior

Nothing gets the crowd excited at a volleyball match more than a powerful kill shot.

Mater Dei senior Layli Ostovar could provide that, and much more. She was a superb server, passer and defensive player who covered the court like a spider. While most players make a diving dig just to save the ball, Ostovar made diving digs with a purpose – her digs were planned passes to a teammate.

Ostovar, an outside hitter, was a top contributor for the Monarchs as they won the CIF State Open Division championship. Mater Dei lost to Sierra Canyon in the CIF Southern Section Division 1 final, then beat Sierra Canyon in the CIF Southern California Regional Open Division final to advance to the state finals.

“Obviously her skills are sensational across the board,” said Mater Dei coach Dan O’Dell. “She has no weakness in her game and impacts the game in every way.”

Osotovar might have been at her best in the Monarchs’ biggest match of the season, the CIF State Open Division final against Rocklin. She helped establish Mater Dei as the superior team right away, delivering six kills in the first set won by Mater Dei 25-13. The Monarchs went on to a three-set sweep.

Osotvar finished with a match-high 31 kills in the state final.

She was the Orange County player of the year as a junior in 2024. Her accolades this season include being named MaxPreps.com player of the year. Ostovar also is an American Volleyball Coaches Association and an UnderArmour All-American selection.

It has been quite the journey for Ostovar. She was born with club feet, underwent surgeries to correct the condition, and it was doubtful that she would be able to walk normally.

“I think I’m lucky to be able to play volleyball,” Ostovar said.

She said the highlight of her senior season was sharing the state championships with friends.

“This was the tightest group of girls I’ve been with,” Ostovar said. “We have fun off the court but we know how to lock in when we need to lock in and be serious.”

Ostovar signed with USC, which to her was an obvious destination.

“A lot of USC culture is like Mater Dei culture,” she said. “I thought about how much I love Mater Dei, so why not continue that?”

O’Dell said he will miss Ostovar not just for her volleyball play but also for her personality.

“She gets excited for her teammates when they do well,” O’Dell said. “She cares about everybody on the team.”

COACH OF THE YEAR

Alex Griffiths, Cypress

Cypress coach Alex Griffiths is the Orange County girls volleyball coach of the year for the 2025 season.

Griffiths led the Centurions this season to the CIF Southern Section Division 3 championship and to the CIF State Division II championship. They beat Clovis West in the state finals after beating Foothill in the CIF-SS finals. Cypress finished the season 25-10.

Griffiths said winning the championships required multiple contributions, from assistant coaches Celeste Manliguis, Corey Manliguis and Gus Tuaniga to the Cypress players and beyond.

“The parents were super supportive,” she said. “The families trusted me through the process.”

Griffiths led the Cypress boys volleyball team to a CIF-SS championship in 2017.
