HAVERFORD, Pa. - The Archibald MacIntosh Award was presented to Lauren Anderson '26 on Thursday, September 21 during an on-campus ceremony in the Bryn Mawr room of the dining center. The MacIntosh Award honors the Haverford College sophomore who, during their first-year on campus, emerged as the top scholar-athlete in the class.

Now in its 59th year honoring academic and athletic excellence at Haverford, the award was first presented in 1964.
President of the Societies of Haverford College Dan Gordon '90 served as the Master of Ceremonies for the evening. Dean of the College John McKnight, Director of Athletics Danielle Lynch, and Bill MacIntosh (grandson of Archibald MacIntosh) also spoke during the ceremony. The evening concluded with women's soccer head coach Jamie Schneck and women's lacrosse head coach Katie Wertman introducing Anderson before Lauren accepted her award and gave a short speech.
