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 Aidan Wade.

Wade, a junior attacker from Flower Mound, had a record-setting weekend in Washington, Pa., helping the 'Roos go 3-1 in MPSF East Division play while scoring 16 goals. Wade set a new program record - breaking the previous mark set by his older brother, former 'Roo Max Wade - with 10 goals in a 26-8 victory over Wheaton. Wade tallied on all 10 of his shot attempts in the game, and also had three goals against both Penn State Behrend and Washington & Jefferson. 

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.
