Whitman Athlete of the Week: Corina Gabbert

Whitman Athlete of the Week: Corina Gabbert | by KimCorina Gabbert, junior forward for the Whitman Women’s soccer team, is the inaugural winner of the Whitman Athlete of the Week award. During Whitman’s 2-1 overtime win against St. Martin’s University, Gabbert had eight shots in the game, four of which were on goal.
