Wallace Named Modern Woodmen 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 tennis player Timothy Wallace.

Wallace, a first-year player from Royse City, had an outstanding week for Austin College as the 'Roos played a trio of matches, including helping Austin College to its first win of the year in a home match against NCAA Division II opponent Sul Ross State. In that match, Wallace won by scores of 6-0, 6-0 playing line three singles, and paired with Cameron McIver for a 6-3 victory on line one in doubles competition. Wallace also earned a point for Austin College in a match against SCAC opponent McMurry last week, picking up a 6-1, 7-6 (7-4) win playing on line five.

Modern Woodmen of America is proud to recognize and support the ongoing achievements of Austin College student-athletes.
