Mustangs of the Week | Millbrook School: Better by Design

FALL 2026

WEEK OF OCTOBER 19

Lola Marston

All fall, Lola has been a rock in the net for the girls varsity soccer team. Her play in goal has been one of many reasons why the team finds itself in contention for a playoff spot as we head into the final weeks of the season. Her leadership and consistency this fall have been invaluable. Last Wednesday, Lola was strong in the net, helping the girls pick up an impressive 2-1 road win against a very good Cheshire team.

Billy Lin

Billy has been a wonderful addition to the boys varsity soccer team this fall. He has worked hard since arriving at Millbrook and has worked his way up to the varsity team. This past Friday, Billy was rewarded as he scored a wonderful highlight-reel goal in the team's under-the-lights game. His goal helped his team pick up an impressive 6-0 win against rival Salisbury.

WEEK OF OCTOBER 12

Madison Carpenter

Madison was instrumental in volleyball’s two wins last week against Wooster and Miss Hall’s. On Wednesday against Wooster, Madison led the team with 12 kills, 5 service aces, 15 assists, and 13 digs. This past Saturday against Miss Hall’s, she stepped up and played libero for the team for the first time this year. In that match, she had another tremendous afternoon, picking up 6 digs and 7 aces in the team’s road win at Miss Hall’s.

Oliver Fauver

As captain of the Millbrook cross country team this fall, Ollie has stepped up and led by example with his effort and hard work. This past Saturday, he ran a solid 5k race at Hotchkiss, placing 11th overall with a time of 19:57. For each of the three meets so far this season, he has placed in the top five on the team ladder and has positively contributed to Millbrook’s scoring and current 2-2 record as they enter the heart of the season.

WEEK OF OCTOBER 5

Andrea Sassatelli

On Saturday, Andy ran a phenomenal race in the Gordy Glover six-school invitational at Suffield Academy. She ran the race in an impressive 18 minutes and 19 seconds, absolutely crushing the girls course record at Suffield and beating the next runner by a minute and a half. After she finished the race, Andy came back and cheered the rest of her teammates on and later led them through a celebratory cool down.

Will Vollmer

Will has been applying himself all season and has quietly led the team by example with his unwavering work ethic. Last week, against the Frederick Gunn School, he won the dual meet race outright in a time of 19:04 on our challenging home course. This past Saturday, in a race against Salisbury, he took second place overall in a time of 18:45. In both races, his high finish—and low score—resulted in very competitive team scores for the Mustangs.

WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 28

Merritt Tessier

Merritt has helped the GV soccer team get off to a solid start this fall. She was a driving force in the team’s 7-1 win at Marianapolis, scoring a goal and continually pressuring throughout the game, causing numerous turnovers. This past week against Masters, Merritt had a screamer of a goal. She found the ball off a deflection and rifled it into the top right corner of the goal, giving the Mustangs a 1-0 lead. Overall, Merritt has been a positive influence on the team and a supportive teammate.

Artie Ambuhl

In three games this past week, Artie picked up a total of 5 goals, helping pace the attack for the BV soccer team as the squad picked up two key wins. In the team’s big win last Sunday against class C rival St. Andrew’s, Artie led the way with three goals. This past Saturday at home, Artie helped spark the Mustangs, picking up two more goals in their come-from-behind 4-3 win against rivals Canterbury.
