TOWSON, MD- The Landmark Conference has named 61 student-athletes to the Spring All-Sportsmanship Team. The All-Sportsmanship Team includes one student-athlete from each institution for each sport and is selected by the players and coaches from their respective teams.
Juniata had six members of its spring sports teams represented. They are softball senior Katie Schroeder (Kempton, PA/Kutztown), baseball junior Anthony Lombardo (Altoona, PA/Altoona Area), men’s tennis senior Sam Brumbaugh (Perkasie, PA/Pennridge), women’s tennis junior Mitsuki Koh (Cupertino, CA/Monta Vista), men’s track and field sophomore Andrew Paterno (Waynesboro, PA/Waynesboro) and women’s track and field junior Britney Bridges (Plattsburgh, NY/Peru).
The All-Sportsmanship Team recognizes student-athletes who epitomize the ideals of sportsmanship. The student-athletes selected demonstrate fair play, graciousness in victory and respectfulness in defeat. They are ambassadors for the team, both on and off the field, and galvanize their teammates toward their goals. These student-athletes exhibit respect for themselves, teammates, coaches, opponents, officials, spectators, and the greater campus community.
The All-Sportsmanship Team was created by the Landmark Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) in 2013 as a way to highlight student-athletes who are making an impact. The Landmark previously awarded a Sportsmanship Cup before the All-Sportsmanship Team replaced the Cup for the 2013-14 academic year.
