The combination of winter and spring sports for Goldey-Beacom produced four for Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference honors with senior Janiya Stevens (Ellendale, DE) named Women's Basketball Player of the Week, senior Darin Miller (Mifflinburg, PA) picked Baseball's Player of the Week, junior Wyatt Atkinson (Moorestown, NJ) tabbed Baseball's Pitcher of the Week and sophomore Caleb Bates (Detroit, MI) named to the Men's Basketball Weekly Honor Roll.

Stevens averaged 25.5 points on 14-of-21 shooting, hauled in 6.5 rebounds per contest and shot 23-for-27 from the foul line with six blocks over two games. She exploded with a career-best 28 points on 9-of-9 shooting, went 10-for-14 from the foul line to go with three blocks in Goldey-Beacom's 80-72 victory over Georgian Court. Stevens then notched 23 points, eight rebounds and three blocks in addition to shooting 13-for-13 from the line in her squad's 79-72 triumph Saturday over Post.

Miller batted .500 (9-for-18) with two doubles, a home run and seven RBI over four games. He exploded Sunday against Saint Rose with a career-best six RBI, four hits to tie a personal best, a double and a home run in Goldey-Beacom's 10-0 win. He also had two hits Friday in game one against Mercy and Saturday vs. Saint Rose.

Atkinson tossed five scoreless innings, allowing just three hits Sunday against Saint Rose. His and Miller's efforts helped Goldey-Beacom (3-1) move up to second in the latest National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) East Region Poll after starting fourth.

Bates averaged 18.5 points on 12-of-19 shooting and 7.0 rebounds over two games.
