Athletes of the Week

Here are the Elite Eagle athletes of the week for the week of Feb. 15-21.

Freshman Tyler Marlow (Palmyra, NY/Palmyra-Macedon) is the male athlete of the week after leading the Brockport Wrestling team to a second place finish at the Empire Wrestling Conference Championships.
Marlow won the individual championship at 125 pounds and was named the most outstanding wrestler. With the win, Marlow earns the automatic qualifier to the NCAA Championships on March 5-6.
Marlow pinned a wrestler from RIT in the first round, then beat a wrestler from Cortland before pinning the number-one seed from Ithaca in the championship bout in 2:09.
Brockport finished second in the team competition by earning 126 points. SUNY Cortland won the championship with 141.5 points and No.4 Ithaca College finished third with 124.5 points.


Senior Carrie Rock (Chambersburg, PA/North Hagerstown) is the female athlete of the week after leading the gymnastics team to a third place finish at the Harriet Marrance Memorial Invitational.
Rock competed for the first time this season and looked like she never missed a beat as she took top honors on the balance beam with a 9.550. The score ties her second best performance on the apparatus.
