The best captains lead by example. On the field, off the field, in the classroom, and how they carry themselves.
Ethel Walker's junior captain, Allison Hayes, checks all the boxes above.
Finishing her junior campaign by being named All-NEPSAC and a WNEPSSA All-Star, the forward for the Wildcats and wing for FSA FC has put her name on the map as one of the brightest rising stars in New England. And her and Ethel Walker's season in 2023 was only sweetened, finishing as champs.
"It was great. We had a great season for Ethel," Hayes said. "Being Class E champs for Western New England was great. My teammates have been great. I'm excited to go back next year."
