The Windham Eagle athlete of the week is 17-year-old, senior
Lauren Linevitch. She is a three-sport athlete running cross country and indoor
track and she plays lacrosse in the spring.
Linevitch was chosen by her coach for this honor because,
“Lauren represents all the characteristics that the cross country program
stands for. She is a leader on and off the playing surfaces and never calls
attention to herself.”
The most important thing when she’s on the course or on the
field is “doing the best I am able to do every race and or game. Also, being a
positive role model is very important to me,” she said.
After a meet she unwinds by cooling down with her team and
having a Gatorade.
Linevitch lives with her mom, Beth, her dad, John and her
sister, Julia. Her hobbies are running and being with her friends and family.
In the future she would like to be an occupational therapist
here in Maine.
Linevitch would like to thank coach Riddle and coach
Brockelbank for all they do for her and the cross country program. She would
also like to thank MacKenzie Joy, Julia Rand and the rest of the team for
always pushing her to be the best.
