Marvin Award Winners: Oliver Moore and Courtney Birch

5/29/2009
The Marvin Award is given each season to a boy and a girl who are new to Proctor for their leadership, sportsmanship, and ability.  In the words below of their respective coaches, Lynne Kenney and Ian Hamlet, congratulations to both Oliver and Courtney on this outstanding honor!

COURTNEY BIRCH - LACROSSE
Courtney has never player lacrosse before, but she has done a wonderful job in the goal and is constantly improving. She has a superb attitude, and she is a hard worker. I couldn't ask for a better player to have on the team. Courtney is willing to put aside her fear and try her best every game. Congratulations, Courtney, you really deserve this terrific honor!

OLIVER MOORE – LACROSSE
Oliver was a new junior attackman to the team this year and he quickly established himself as a goal scorer.  With a nose for the net, he quickly drew the attention of each opposing team's best defender in each game, opening up opportunities for the other attackmen to score.  Oliver’s knowledge of the game and focus in every practice made him an instant asset to the team.  He was also a featured Athlete of the Week, in part for scoring 15 goals in the first three games of the season.  He ended the season as one of the top scorers with a total of 30 goals and 19 assists.  His coaches were very pleased with his efforts this year and look forward to further great work from him next season.
