Crapolfest X Set for This Weekend

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. – The William & Mary men's soccer program hosts the 10th annual Crapolfest this weekend, Sept. 21-22. Celebrating the life of former Tribe player Andy Crapol, the event kicks off as the Tribe hosts No. 24 Coastal Carolina on Friday night at 7 p.m. and will be followed by a full Saturday of events.
 
All proceeds from Crapolfest go towards the Andrew E. Crapol Scholarship Fund. To date, the scholarship fund has raised $400,000. For more information on the cause and the event, visit AndyCrapol.com. Click HERE to register for Crapolfest events, and all registered participants will receive an event t-shirt.
 
The Andrew E. Crapol Men's Soccer Scholarship has been given out since 2009, and sophomore Sam Golan is the latest recipient of the scholarship. The previous Tribe players to receive the award include Michael DiNuzzo (2009 and 2010), Nicolas Abrigo (2011), former CAA Defender of the Year Will Smith (2012, 2013 and 2014), and Reilly Maw (2015 and 2016). The Tribe's annual Coach's Award was also renamed the Crapol Award in Andy's honor in 2009 as well.
 
Crapol was a four-year letterwinner for the Tribe who lost his battle with cancer during the spring of 2009. An extremely coachable player, the Williamsburg native played in 38 career matches for the Tribe, scoring four goals, including the game-winner against Coastal Carolina during the 1999 season. He graduated from the College in 2001, earning a degree in economics.

Saturday includes a morning 5K, a golf tournament, a miniature golf tournament and a 10th anniversary celebration. For just $45, fans can purchase a Crapolfest ticket combo, including admission for the 5K race/1-mile fun run, the miniature golf tournament and W&M's game with Coastal Carolina. Individually, the entry fee for the Crapolfest 5K is $25, $15 for the 1-mile fun run and $30 for the miniature golf tournament.
 
The 5K (9 a.m.) and fun run (8:30 a.m.) will take place at Martin Family Stadium at Albert-Daly Field (4545 Ironbound Road). The miniature golf tournament is scheduled for a 2 p.m. shotgun start at Pirates Cove Adventure Golf (2001 Mooretown Rd, Williamsburg, VA 23185).
 
The Crapol Trophy Golf Outing will be on Saturday at noon at the Golden Horseshoe Golf Club. The entry fee is $200 per golfer ($75 entry fee, $125 tax deductible donation) and contact Al Albert at afalbe@wm.edu for availability. The competition is a handicapped captain's choice format for two-person teams.
 
Crapolfest X concludes with a special 10th anniversary celebration at Berret's Seafood Restaurant & Taphouse Grill (199 S Boundary St, Williamsburg, VA 23185) on Saturday night. Come out and celebrate Andy with friends and enjoy food, beverages, music, and more!
 
Friday night's soccer match pits returning conference champions at Martin Family Stadium. W&M and Coastal Carolina square off for the fourth-straight season, and the teams have split the previous three meetings, including a 1-1 draw last season. The Chanticleers won the Sun Belt Conference a season ago and advanced to the NCAA Round of 16. Click HERE to purchase individual single-game tickets.
