Top 5 Plays O' the Week: 5/28/13

This week's top 5 plays of the week!



Athlete of the Week: Cole Proffitt

Manheim Central's javelin sensation Cole Proffitt is Athlete of the Week!



Cole completed the trifecta of post season gold with a win this past Saturday at the state track meet. He uncorked a 201ft throw in brutally windy conditions to claim the title. He adds that win to victories in both the Lancaster-Lebanon league meet and the District 3 meet.

Three weeks; three gold medals.

Quite a way to finish up a high school throwing career. Proffitt will continue his track and field career at Penn State University in the fall.

Athlete of the Week: Mary Witmer

Ephrata's trackstar Mary Witmer is the Athlete of the Week!




Hurdler Mary Witmer of the Ephrata Mount's may be the fastest 300m female hurdler in Pennsylvania. This past weekend Witmer smashed the District 3 record in the 300m hurdles finishing in impressive time of 42.11. 

Her first place victory earned her a top seed at states for the 300m hurdles. Hopefully she will bring home another gold medal at the state meet this weekend at Shippensburg.
