Josie English has been selected as the Warrior Watch Athlete of the Week for the week ending on 11/09/24. As the team’s chosen captain, she plays a vital role and dedicates herself solely to soccer. English plays the position of a sweeper, which is the last defender on the field before the goal. She has had huge defensive stops over her career specifically against Cambria Heights and Bald Eagle. The Warrior Soccer team has a tradition of awarding “the golden boots” to players who deliver exceptional performances in games. English received the Golden Boots three times in her senior year. Last week she was honored as an ICC All-Star for the 2024 season. Senior teammate, Sarah Guglielmi spoke about the great leadership she carried throughout her career. “Every time Josie makes a great stop, the team sees that and it motivates us to give our all. That’s all Josie ever did. We could always count on her to make an impact on every game.”
