Alden Athletics is proud to announce the Athletes of the Week for 9/26-10/3!

Nathan Nuwer (Varsity Boys Soccer)
Nathan Nuwer is a senior and captain for the Boys Varsity Soccer Team. Three divisional games and 3 game winning goals sums up Nate’s performance in the past week. Against Holland, Nate scored a hat trick plus an assist in the 4-1 victory. At Springville, he assisted in the overtime goal for the 2-1 win. Finally, Nate scored the game winner against Eden to clinch the 2-0 win and move the Bulldogs into 2nd place with an incredible 10-2 overall record. Nathan’s leadership throughout the season and especially in recent critical games make him this week’s Alden High School Male Athlete of the Week.

Anna Dussault (Varsity Volleyball)
Senior Anna Dussault is one of three captains for Alden’s varsity volleyball program that began their season with a 8-1 record. Anna is a setter in the back row and a right side hitter when she rotates to the front row. Anna’s versatility to play all positions demonstrates her true athleticism and knowledge of the game. Her high skill level of play sets the standards for the rest of the team. In a six match span, Anna accounted for 88 assists (team high) and 27 kills (3rd on team). Anna is a perfect example of a captain, she always puts the team first, and is willing to help anyone.
