HAMBURG, N.Y. - The Athletics Department is pleased to announce the Hilbert College Athletes of the Week for April 6, 2026.  

Nikolas D'Andrea (Men's Volleyball) and Gregory Lowry (Baseball) were recognized for their athletic performances during their respective team's run last week. 

Nikolas D'Andrea (North Tonawanda, NY/North Tonawanda | Medaille) delivered an impressive final week of his Hilbert career. The 6-foot-5 opposite totaled 64 kills while hitting .410 across 12 sets. He also contributed five assists, four service aces, 73 serve receptions, and 12 digs. His 5.33 kills per set and 5.7 points per set were fueled by a highly efficient offensive performance, committing just six hitting errors over two matches. 

Gregory Lowry (Niagara Falls, NY/Niagara Falls | SUNY Niagara) turned in a dominant performance on the mound, tossing a nine-inning complete game to lead the Hawks to a 4-2 victory over Penn State Behrend. The 6-foot right-handed pitcher struck out 11 Lions and did not allow a walk, extra-base hit, or hit batter. He effectively controlled the tempo throughout the game despite challenging, windy conditions.
