Athletes of the Week

Sophomore James Cody (Schwenksville, PA) is this week’s male athlete of the week after scoring three goals in the SUNYAC Ice Hockey Tournament.
Cody scored twice in the 3-0 victory over SUNY Potsdam in the first round of the tournament. He gave Brockport a 2-0 lead with 9:58 to play in the second period and late in the third period Cody stole the puck near the blue line and raced the length of the ice and tapped in an empty-net goal for the final margin.
In the semifinal game against nationally ranked #4 Plattsburgh, Cody scored midway through the third period for his 14th goal of the season.
Cody finished the season with a team high 28 points on 14 goals and 14 assists. In the past two years, Cody has led Brockport to back-to-back 14 win seasons. It's the most wins in a two year span since becoming a varsity program in 1973-74.

Senior Stephanie Powell (Niagara Falls, NY/Niagara Falls) is this week’s female athlete of the week after leading the women’s indoor track and field team to a fifth place finish at the SUNYAC Championships.
Powell won her first individual SUNYAC title as she finished first in the weight throw with a career best toss of 14.93 meters. Her previous best mark was 14.63 set at St. Lawrence earlier this season.
