Athletes of the Week: Oct. 21-27

LANCASTER, Pa. -- Centennial Conference weekly awards have been distributed for the week of Oct. 21-27, 2024 as conference play has reached its final week of the regular season in field hockey and men's and women's soccer. Volleyball has two weeks remaining prior to postseason play, while swimming just completed its second week of the season as the lone winter sport to open up competition thus far. 

The fall Centennial championship season opens up this weekend with Dickinson hosting the CC cross country championships on Saturday, Nov. 2 at Big Spring High School. 

Tate Roth of McDaniel men's soccer and Mary Huegel of Gettysburg volleyball headline this week's honorees as three-time award winners, while Ethan Jarden of Dickinson men's soccer earned his second honor of the year. 

Below is the full list of award winners from last week's competition.
