Athlete of the Week: Maddie Duchesneau

Athletics

It is not an easy decision to pick an Athlete of the Week when you start the season 5-0 as each member of the roster has contributed to the fine start to the season. While she did not make Athlete of the Week, Sydni Scott deserves a mention for her fine hat trick against Kingswood Oxford last Wednesday. The week's AOW is Varsity soccer center back Maddie Duchesneau, and this is for a few important reasons.

Her leadership and vocal contribution inspires her team; her application dedication and desire to win the ball back and pride in keeping it sets the tone for others to follow…which they do. Maddie is a huge reason why the Varsity soccer team still has not conceded a goal this season.

The Brick walls are not there to keep us out, the brick walls are there to show us how badly we want something…congratulations to Maddie Duchesneau!
