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 Aspen Dyer and Bridgeport’s Owen Sondericker.
Cougar softball player Aspen Dyer led her team to a pair of wins over rivals Bridgeport and Robert C. Byrd. Dyer was four for seven with a home run and a triple. She also had seven runs batted in and scored five runs.
Indian baseball player Owen Sondericker helped the Tribe over Lincoln recently. Sondericker was three for four from the plate with a pair of runs batted in and one run scored.
Congratulations to Lincoln’s Aspen Dyer and Bridgeport’s Owen Sondericker for shining bright in the SN and HCJ spotlight!
