It’s that time once again to acknowledge the efforts of Harrison County’s student-athletes. Each week we review the performances of the athletes from the six schools (Bridgeport, Liberty, Lincoln, Notre Dame, Robert C. Byrd, and South Harrison) in our county.
The Shinnston News & Harrison County Journal’s Athlete of the Week award is an avenue to promote the youth of our county while bringing attention to their athletic accomplishments.
The Harrison County athletes in the spotlight this week are Lincoln’s A. J. Bart and Robert C. Byrd’s Isiah Heflin.
In Cougar quarterback A. J. bart’s last game in a Lincoln uniform, he put up some impressive numbers. Bart was 34 of 47 for 346 yards and a pair of touchdowns in a loss to Independence.
Flying Eagle signal caller Isiah Heflin recently helped his squad to a signature win over fairmont Senior in the playoffs. Heflin was five of nine passing for 112 yards and a score. He rushed for a team high 101 yards and three touchdowns.
Congratulations to A. J. Bart and Isiah heflin for shining bright in the SN and HCJ spotlight!
