OUR OPINION Allen leaves quite a legacy at Columbia rian Allen was more than a great football coach at Columbia High School. B But as his 86-33 record in 10 seasons with 10 playoff berths indicate, Allen was definitely a great coach. Still, his impact has been felt far beyond the gridiron. During his time at CHS, which ended with his resig- nation Tuesday, Allen had around 60 players sign schol- arships to play in college, around 60 guys who have had the chance to also further their education and better themselves. In his statement confirming Allen’s departure, Columbia principal Trey Hosford praised him for his dedication to the school as a whole. That was just the beginning. As the news broke online Wednesday night, the outpouring of love and respect for Allen was overwhelming from his players, both former and current. Most of those credited Allen for changing their lives, whether that was through instilling a fierce work ethic or just through talks and conversations about becoming a man. It’s a tremendous tribute for a coach, many of whom Homicides on historic rise in major cities get into coaching to try and mold young people’s lives. It’s clear that Allen is leaving behind quite the legacy at Columbia.

2021 LAKE CITY REPORTER SPRING SPORTS ALL-AREA SOFTBALL PLAYER OF THE YEAR

SHS pitcher Karis Smith bounced back from injury to lead area in HRs while excelling in the circle.

By MORGAN MCMULLEN [email protected]

LIVE OAK — Karis Smith diligently prepared. The Suwannee ace had a nice, long session of stretching out her muscles before the Bulldogs’ season opener against Dixie County. The previous day, Smith and her team- mates finished out their preseason training regiment with a series of wind sprints. But besides a lingering soreness from that, Smith said she felt fine heading into the pitcher’s circle against the Bears. But on her fifth pitch of the new sea- son, Smith felt something weird in her left hamstring. The right-hander tried to shake it off as she prepped for the full count. “I throw the pitch, and it just com- pletely snapped,” Smith said. “It did not feel good.” Smith had to be helped off the field after the hamstring pull, an inju- ry that would cost her three games over the next nine days. It also set the table for a remarkable streak that saw Smith knock the most home runs (six) of any area softball player and lead her team in numerous bat- ting and pitching benchmarks on her way to earning recognition as the Lake City Reporter’s Softball Player of the Year. Smith wasn’t alone in coming back from her injury. In fact, she never has been. She has always had a close rela- tionship with her grandfather, Terry Mixon, who was the first to nudge Smith toward a life in athletics. When Smith was about 5 years old, she remembers Mixon flatly telling her one morning that she was going to play T-ball. In one of her first out- ings, she faced a similar scenario she would confront in that first game against Dixie County roughly 12 years later. “I got hit in the face — and I remember this clear as day — (Mixon) told me that I had to decide right now if I wanted to play softball,” Smith said. “Ever since then, he has taught me basically everything I know. He’s taken me to pitching lessons, he’s gone out and practiced numerous days. He’s caught me pitching.” That bond that Smith forged with her grandfather culminated in her playing for him as her coach during her 8th-grade season. “He’s just somebody I really look up COURTESY Suwannee pitcher Karis Smith is the LCR’s Softball Player of the Year.
