Female Nominees

Nina Harrison (Lebanon / Jr.) – Basketball: Typically relied upon for her defensive presence, the junior stepped up offensively with 11 points in Lebanon’s win over McCaskey. Harrison went 7-for-8 from the free throw line, providing composure and scoring when the Cedars needed it most.

McKenna Kantner (New Covenant / Fr.) – Basketball: The freshman had a huge week for the Flames, totaling 38 points across two games while contributing in every phase. Kantner posted 15 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists, and 8 steals against Dayspring, then followed with 23 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 steals versus Covenant as New Covenant finished the week 3-0.

Elli Malinoski (Cedar Crest / So.) – Basketball: The sophomore led the Lady Falcons with 19 points in a Friday night win over Hempfield. Malinoski connected on three three-pointers and once again showed her ability to take over offensively in key moments.

Hayley Sheroky (Northern Lebanon / Sr.) – Basketball: The senior scored 10 points in a close loss to Manheim Central, including 8 in the first half. Sheroky’s early scoring helped keep the Vikings competitive against a strong opponent.

Georgia Sellers (Annville-Cleona / Fr.) – Basketball: The freshman helped the Dutchmen return to the .500 mark, scoring 14 points in a win over Linden Hall. Earlier in the week, Sellers added 8 points in Annville-Cleona’s road victory over Octorara, continuing her steady impact in the lineup.

Kylee Trostle (ELCO / Jr.) – Wrestling: The junior opened her season with a strong showing at the prestigious Escape the Rock Tournament at North Penn High School (a LebCoSports.com favorite), placing third at 118 pounds. Trostle went 5-1 on the day, recording four pins and establishing herself early as a contender in her weight class.
