As a soccer player at Warwick, Andrew Wenger earned every accolade imaginable.

Now that he’s at Duke University, nothing has changed.

In rankings listed on TopDrawerSoccer.com on Friday, Aug. 5, the Blue Devils’ junior defender was the number one prospect among underclassmen for professional soccer, according to college player expert Joe Mauceri.

UCLA sophomore midfielder Kelyn Rowe is second and Wenger’s Duke University teammate Sebastien Ibeagha, a sophomore defender/midfielder, is 18th.

In 2010, Wenger, a 2009 Warwick graduate, was selected to the NSCAA All-America First-Team and he was a Herrman Trophy semi-finalist.

Last Friday, College Soccer News released its 2011 pre-season All-America teams, and Wenger and Blue Devils’ junior goalkeeper James Belshaw both received First-Team recognition.

Earlier this week, when told of Wenger’s selection by Mauceri as the top pro prospect among underclassmen, Manheim Central head soccer coach Matt Schwartz wasn’t surprised.

Schwartz’s Barons played against Wenger and the Warriors in pre-season camps and the former Warwick star left a lasting impression.

WHS star also wins bronze at Jr. National Meet

Warwick High School swimmer Emily Cameron, a three-time gold medal winner at the PIAA State Swimming Championships in 2010 and 2011, recently competed at both the U.S. National Swim Championships and in two events at the Junior National Meet which was held at Stanford University in Palo Alto, Calif.

Cameron, a junior-to-be, finished 17th in the 200 Individual Medley (long course) with a time of 2:16.24 in the National Meet. The time, based on swimmer age groups, left her just two-hundredths of a second from making a trip to Lima, Peru with the U.S. Junior National Team this week.

She also swam the 400 I.M. during the Junior National Meet and earned a bronze medal in a time of 4:48.24.

Brixton Albert acknowledged that he was getting a little bit frustrated.

In a handful of recent amateur golf tournaments, the 2006 Warwick High School grad was knocking on the door, but couldn’t quite finish the deal.

Last Sunday, he finally did.

Competing in the prestigious Jake Gittlen Memorial Tournament at Hershey Country Club’s East Course, Albert defeated Lower Dauphin grad Griff Bashore on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff to claim top honors.

That also completed a solid comeback for the Lititz resident. His 2-over 73 left him four shots behind the leaders following Saturday’s first round, but he battled back to pull even with Bashore after regulation with a 1-over 143.

Then on a difficult 465-yard, par-four 18th hole in the playoff, Albert got himself out of the rough to finish with par, edging Bashore, who bogeyed the hole.

For Albert, it was his first win since taking home the championship in the 2005 George Crudden Golf Tournament just prior to his senior year at Warwick.
