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 Aundrea Rockwell and Robert C. Byrd’s Cam Newsaun.
Cougar basketball player Aundrea Rockwell scored a game high 18 points to propel Lincoln to a victory over Ripley, recently. Rockwell also connected on the Cougars’ only three-point shot of the affair.
Flying Eagle hoopster Cam Newsaun has had a couple of big outings as of late. Newsaun hit for 22 points i a win over Phillip Barbour and two games later poured in 28 points during a victory over Preston.
Congratulations to Lincoln’s Aundrea Rockwell and RCB’s Cam Newsaun for shining bright in the SN and HCJ spotlight!
