David Munson Named Forester Athlete of the Week
Sophomore won the 50th Annual Contenders Championship

LAKE FOREST, IL - Lake Forest College handball player David Munson (Williston, VT) was named the Forester Athlete of the Week for his performance in the 2001 Joe Ardito Contenders Tournament, hosted by Lake Forest College on Friday and Saturday (November 16-17th).

Munson became the 17th Forester to win the event and the sixth one in as many years. Because there were 31 players entered in the tournament, the top-seeded Munson received a first-round bye. After winning his second and third-round matches in two sets each, he dropped the first set in the title match, 21-18. Munson settled down and won the second set, 21-12, and the tiebreaker, 11-2, over Jamie Simon of Des Plaines.

The Forester Athlete of the Week is chosen by the Athletic Department on Thursdays.
