Kevin Snyder named to ESPN The Magazine Academic District One Second Team

01:05PM / Thursday, February 05, 2009

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. - Senior captain Kevin Snyder (Littleton, CO), an art and psychology major, has been named to the Second Team ESPN The Magazine Academic District One Team. To be named to the Academic District One Team a player must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.30 and be a starter or key reserve.
 
Snyder leads the 14-6 Ephs in minutes played (33.5), assists (77), 3-point FGs made (54) and free throws made (88). Snyder is second on the Ephs in scoring with 16.7 ppg and third in rebounds with 83. His assist to turnover ratio is 2.2 - 1 this season.
 
A four-year letter winner, Snyder has started all 20 games for Williams this season and has logged 74 careers starts. He has tallied 913 points, recorded 250 rebounds and registered 218 assists. He is also a two-time Academic All-NESCAC selection.

Ephs ranked second in New England wrestling poll/8 ranked in region

The Williams wrestling team (17-4-1) has jumped to second in the New England rankings after an impressive 28-6 win over NYU at last weekend's Metro/New England Duals at Hunter College in New York City.

"I think the coaches noticed that we had a big win over NYU and Rhode Island College [previous #2] only defeated them by one point earlier," said co-head coach Dan DiCenzo. "James McCarthy, Carl Breitenstein, Corey Paulish, Ethan Cohen (major decision) and Drew Gatewood all posted quality wins against NYU."

The Ephs still trail number one ranked Johnson & Wales in the poll, but they will have this weekend and the NEWA Championships remaining to try and close that gap.

"Depth has been such an important part of our success this season," noted DiCenzo. "We already have the most wins in a season in school history because we have numbers that allow us to practice competitively and rest some of our competitors in matches, giving valuable experience to younger members of the team."

The Ephs have again tied a program and season best with eight ranked wrestlers this week. Four of the eight Eph grapplers improved on their ranking of a week ago.

The three-week conversion process of moving sophomore Ryan Malo up to 197 and junior Nathan Shippee and senior captain Kyle Ayer down to 184 is beginning to bear fruit. Shippee made an appearance in the rankings at number five, after not being ranked the week before.

Sophomore Jon Foster moved up two notches at 165 and is now ranked fourth, while juniors Carl Breitenstein (157) and Dylan Rittenburg (149) have moved up from third to second in their weight classes.

Remaining atop their weight classifications are sophomores Corey Paulish (141) and Ryan Malo (197). Senior captain Ethan Cohen is still ranked second at 125. Sophomore Josh Mattana is now seventh at 133.

"There are 4-5 really good teams in New England so it is important that all of our wrestlers continue to improve, even our best wrestlers so we can finish out the regular season strong and prepare for the NEWA Championships," said DiCenzo. "The plus side for us is that all of these kids are capable of improving and willing to do the work necessary to improve."

This weekend the Ephs head to Middletown, CT to face Little Three rival Wesleyan, Oneonta State and WNEC in the final action of the regular season. February 15th will find the JV members of the Eph team competing in the NEWA JV Championships to be held at Springfield College.

On February 21 and 22 the NEWA Championships will be held at Springfield College and the New England title as well as the region's representatives in the NCAA Tournament will be determined.
