The weather in new England at this time of year drives most sports indoors. This week’s athletes are no stranger to the weather with both of them coming from nearby. Junior Sydney Herrington lives just down the road in Bow, New Hampshire. She had five points in two wins for the women’s hockey team. A little further down the highway is home to Myles Epstein in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts. The junior ran a lifetime best of 6.84 60m dash in Leverone this past weekend.
Their efforts are rewarded by being named the DartmouthSports.com Athletes of the week.
Each week, DartmouthSports.com will spotlight two outstanding student-athletes - one male, one female - as Athletes of the Week. Student-athletes may be chosen based upon their efforts both on and off the field of competition.
Sydney Herrington, Jr., Bow, N.H., Forward, Women’s Hockey
