Andrews had a reputation for combining great skills with tenacious toughness – “the type of person
you had to play your hardest against, or he would own you”. Andrews played for three of coach
Mario “Goose” Laurenti’s state championship teams from 1969-1972. He made All-County each year
and was All-American and All-Area as a junior and senior. Also as a senior, Andrews was Mercer
County Player of the Year and won the Knights of Columbus Award for Soccer.
Andrews, a center-midfielder, who never played on a team that didn’t win a state
championship was the only soccer superstar to be honored as a two-time All-American. Andrews
never said much, probably because he didn’t have to -- “He was a quiet player whose leadership
was demonstrated by his work ethic and abilities on the field”.
