The Williams Record (https://williamsrecord.com/tag/athlete-of-the-week/)
Liz Webber ’20
Women’s soccer
Natick, Mass. “We’ve asked [Liz] to be more aggressive and defend higher and as a result she is defending as well as I’ve ever seen her defend.
Ryan Cox ’20
Men’s cross country
Bainbridge Island, Wash.
“He has had a steady upward trajectory since his first year, and made the most progress in last spring’s track season, then again during his high mileage training in Kenya.
Ava Palmo ’19
Women’s crew
Austin, Texas
“Ava is the heart of her boat and of the team, really. She commits to bringing her best to every practice and is a ferocious racer. But beyond that, she is the consummate teammate who cares deeply for the sport and the lessons that it imparts.”
– Head coach Kate Maloney
Sydney Jones ’21
Women’s soccer
Boca Raton, Fla. “Sydney made a difficult finish look easy. Her ability to score goals at important times combined with her consistent work rate off the ball to create opportunities for us on Saturday was a huge reason for the positive result versus Tufts.”
– Head coach Michelyne Pinard
Chris Fleischer ’20
Men’s soccer
Bethesda, Md. “[Chris] continues to be one of our hardest workers and best possession players.
Emma Herrmann ’20
Women’s cross country
Northville, Mich. “Emma built the volume of her training this summer and it is paying off, especially in how strong she was on the hills in the Saratoga course and how she passed so many in the later stages of the race.
Aaron Schein ’19
Men’s soccer
New York, N.Y.
“Aaron has been a huge part of our early season success. Aside from being a steady presence in the back, he’s made some spectacular saves when matches have hung in the balance.
Sam Goldenring ’20
Men’s Golf
FLORHAM PARK, N.J.
“Sam had a very nice summer of golf, and it has carried into the fall season here at Williams. He has worked very hard at all aspects of his game, and it shows. This past weekend at Middlebury, he simply outplayed the field, making good decisions and staying positive when some breaks did not go his way.”
– Head coach Josh Hillman
Andrew Schreibstein ’22
Football
Longmeadow, Mass. “I was very impressed with Andrew’s performance. In his first collegiate game, he was exceptional. It is very difficult to handle of the kicking and punting duties, and Andrew did it remarkably well.”
– Head coach Mark Raymond
