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 the DartmouthSports.com Athletes of the Week. Student-athletes may be chosen based upon their efforts both on and off the field of competition.
Alec Vaules, Jr., Pittsford, N.Y., RHP, Baseball
Junior Alec Vaules made the most of his opportunities on the mound for the baseball team, tossing eight shutout innings on just two hits with eight strikeouts spanning two appearances. The right-hander, who had thrown just 2.2 innings in his first two years with the Big Green, made his second career start on March 27 at Quinnipiac and handcuffed the Bobcats for five frames on two hits, striking out four to earn his first collegiate victory in the 9-2 win. Three days later, Vaules locked down his first career save by hurling three perfect innings, striking out four more batters, in the 23-1 blowout at Columbia. For the season, the walk-on is 1-0 with the one save and a 3.78 ERA over 16.2 innings, and opponents have hit just .230 against him.

Elizabeth Mastrio, Sr., Wilbraham, Mass., M, Women's Lacrosse
Elizabeth Mastrio led Dartmouth to a 2-0 week with wins over Hofstra and Harvard. The senior scored five times and finished with seven points in the pair of victories. Against Harvard, Mastrio found the back of the net three times to help the Big Green remain perfect in Ivy play and atop the league standings at 3-0 this season. Mastrio and her teammates are now currently in the midst of a six-game win streak after dispensing of  UConn this Tuesday afternoon, 18-9, in a game in which Mastrio scored three and dished out three assists to match her career high of six points.
