Athletes of the Week - Goldberg & Campbell

This week DartmouthSports.com went outdoors to find superior athletes for the weekly award. Kirsten Goldberg and Fergus Campbell are seniors on the men's and women's lacrosse teams. Both team opened the 2012 spring with wins on the road. The men traveled to snowy Hamilton, N.Y. and upset 19th ranked Colgate, 9-6.
