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 Bridgeport’s Gavin Williams and Lincoln’s Cade Riley.
Indian running back Gavin Williams took home the Frank Loria Award at the Frank Loria Awards Dinner this past week. It honors the county’s top players.
Cougar Cade Riley nabbed the Columbian Award at the same event. The award is given to the senior football player who achieved the highest scholastic average.
Congratulations for Gavin Williams and Cade Riley for shining bright in the SN and HCJ spotlight.
