Athlete of the Week: Chris Swiatek

Swiatek in action (PC: Gabby Germain)
Each week the athletic department, in conjunction with the coaching staff, will select an Athlete of the Week who best embodies what we hope for in our student-athletes. The honor can as readily go to a Bear for an outstanding performance or for making their team better through their daily sacrifice, work ethic, and spirit.
This week’s Athlete of the Week is Chris Swiatek.
After a fall season during which his 9 goals and 4 assists earned him All-Conference honors and powered the Bears to a third straight playoff appearance, Swiatek jumped into a new sport with the same effort and enthusiasm he displayed on the pitch. His daily work in the wrestling room provided important leadership for a young and inexperienced squad. His willingness to listen to his coaches and jump in wholeheartedly to a new pursuit exemplified what being a Bear is all about.
Great job, Chris!
