William Forster
Senior, Key West
Cross Country
“His growth mindset this year has been an honor to watch and is a great example to a younger generation of athletes. I can’t wait to see how this season unfolds in the next few weeks.” – Keara McGraw, Conchs cross county coach
When it comes to team success, it is not always the star athlete whose contributions make the greatest impact. Key West’s William Forster is a shining example of this.
“His work ethic and leadership have made him an asset to his teammates,” said head coach Keara McGraw of Forster’s efforts to improve both himself and his entire team. “Will goes above and beyond to do the miles even when scheduling makes it difficult,” she added.
Forster leads by example, making time to run even when there is no official practice. HIs leadership reaches beyond his hard work, though; when McGraw is stretched between both teams, he steps up and makes sure all is well while his coach tends to the girls team. For his constant endeavor to improve and his willingness to give his best to his team in every way possible, Key West’s Will Forster is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.
