CORVALLIS, Ore. –Two LC State athletes received Cascade Conference Embrace Health-Santiam Hospital Athlete of the Week honors for the week of Feb. 22-28. Warrior shortstop Riley Way received the conference's Baseball Player of the Week nod and senior runner Cole Olsen once again captured Runner of the Week honors.
 
Riley Way - Baseball Player of the Week
This past weekend at Harris Field, the 24^th-ranked Warriors (10-2) took on Oregon Tech in a four-game set. Way contributed seven hits in the four games, scored five runs and knocked in two. The Warriors took down OIT in three of the four games over the weekend to continue their hot streak to open the season. Way and the Warrior Baseball squad will take on Corban University in a four-game series Saturday and Sunday at Harris Field.
 
Cole Olsen - Cross Country Runner of the Week
On Friday, Warrior Cross Country hosted the LC State Winter Invitational 2. This was the third meet that the Warrior runners participated in, and the third win that Olsen has earned this season. Olsen ran the course with a time of 25:10, besting the second-place runner by seven seconds. His placement helped lead the No. 6 Warriors to an overall second-place finish out of six teams. A perfect three-for-three makes Olsen the man to beat going into the Cascade Conference Championships at the end of March.
