West Branch midfielder, defender, and goalie Julia Herring has been chosen as the Warrior Watch’s female athlete of the week for the week ending 9/16/18. Herring assisted the Lady Warriors in their victory over the Mo-Valley Damsels on Thursday 9/13/18. Julia played a hard 50 minutes on defense and in the midfield holding the Damsels to only 2 goals before having to finish the game in goal replacing Sarah Betts.
