Williams Cricket Club

History

This group of fine young men (and women) are known for their awesome punctuality and regular attendance for cricket practices. They practice every Wednesday and Friday from 4-6 pm at the Towne Field House. The team is captained by Lawrence T. Madziwa '07, vice captained by Syed W. J. Iftikhar '08 and the cricket club is run by Ananda V. Burra '07.

The Williams Cricket Team played Middlebury College and defeated them by an incredible margin. (8 wickets with 8 overs to spare) Other games played against Middlebury College have been expunged from the collective memory of the Williams Cricket Team.
