TOWSON, Md. -- The Landmark Conference has named 47 student-athletes to the 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 team. Six Elizabethtown student-athletes were selected for the six fall sports sponsored by the conference.
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.
Landmark Conference Field Hockey Player of the Year Halley Donlin represented Elizabethtown for her sport for the second consecutive year. All-Landmark First Team performer Andrew Lesko was chosen for men's cross country, while all-conference First Team and All-Mideast Region runner Kelsey Brady was selected for women's XC. Aaron Rathsam earned the nod for men's soccer, while Lindsay Hoagland receive the honor for women's soccer. Katie Kennedy was picked for volleyball. Lesko, Brady, Rathsam, Hoagland, and Kennedy were all selected for the first time for their sports.
Of the 47 student-athletes on the All-Sportsmanship Team, six were named All-Landmark. Five student-athletes are repeat selections from a year ago, and were described as leaders and difference-makers on their teams.
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.
