Wade Named Modern Woodmen Student-Athlete of the Week

SHERMAN, Texas - Austin College Athletics is excited to announce the Modern Woodmen of America Student-Athlete of the Week, an award highlighting our great student-athletes on and off the field of play each week. This week's honoree is 'Roo men's water polo player Max Wade.

Wade, a junior from Flower Mound, led the 'Roos to the program's first undefeated weekend ever, as the team went 3-0 to improve its record against Division III opponents to 4-0 so far in the 2021 campaign. Wade scored 10 goals in those three games for Austin College, currently ranked No. 10 in the latest Division III national poll. He scored five goals in a dominant 21-10 win over host-school Penn State-Behrend, and tallied four in an 18-7 victory over Augustana. During his time in Sherman, Wade has earned All-Mountain Pacific Sports Federation as well as All-America honors, and set the program record with 57 goals during his freshman campaign.

Modern Woodmen of America is proud to recognize and support the ongoing achievements of Austin College student-athletes. Their North Texas Region understands that the pursuit of excellence on and off the field creates a foundation for continued excellence after graduation.
