Another Friday, another Athlete of the Week. This week we have selected Senior Striker and Team Captain for the Panther Creek Varsity Men’s Soccer Team: Cole Castellanos, for his performance in a win against Green Hope. Cole had a goal and an assist that pushed the Catamounts to a 4-3 win over the rival Falcons.

Cole is a modern athlete and says the most important part of his preparation process is “eating right.” According to Castellanos, he eats “a lot of pasta” during the week leading up to his game. Although Cole may be a modern day athlete that focuses on his diet, his go to pregame song was released nearly a decade ago in 22 by Taylor Swift. Castellanos spends his pregame listening to Taylor Swift and is excited for her re-recorded versions of old songs. As a senior and a captain, Castellanos understands how important it is for him to have a good performance to lead his team to a victory. Cole states, “it feels good, not just for me, but the team, because of winning,” when asked about how it feels to have a game like he did against Green Hope.

Congratulations to Cole on being this week’s, Athlete of the Week, and good luck to Varsity Men’s Soccer for the rest of the season!
