Bleeding Bruin Blue Athletes of the Week, May 17-June 7

NOMINATE FOR ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

It would appear as though I have fallen behind in the announcing of Athletes of the Week. Delayed as they may have been, however, with technical problems, final exams, and several other things, the awards have been given as follows:

• May 17-23: Emma Caskey
• May 24-30: Johnny Kauffman
• May 31-June 7: Seth Kauffman

Two trivia contests will be held this summer, one for the month of June and the other for the month of July, before the Athlete of the Week award resumes with the week of August 16-22.

Bleeding Bruin Blue Athlete of the Week, May 10-16

NOMINATE FOR MAY 17-23 ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

The Bleeding Bruin Blue Athlete of the Week for May 10-16 is Johnny Kauffman. To see exactly what Kauffman has done to win this honor, type his name into the search box at the top of the page (or click here). If you don't understand the award, feel free to comment (link at the bottom of the post) or e-mail me.

Eligibility: Literally all Bruins in a position to win any athletic letter (varsity, JV or freshman) during the current season are eligible. The only exceptions are recent winners: Kauffma, Luke Slagel, and Mikey Kelly are ineligible for May 17-23.

Next Week: The next nominations (May 17-23) will be due Tuesday, May 26, at 3:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The list of times by week is linked to on the right side and here. As I said several months ago, the first person to correctly name how I determined the times will get mentioned in a future post. To nominate someone, send an e-mail to senorloco1908@gmail.com and put "AOW nomination: [name of athlete ('athlete' is singular, not plural)]" in the subject line. (You can even include the quotes if you want; a link that should do this is at the top of this post.) The body of the message can be used for whatever you want. The three simple things that will disqualify a message are:

1. A subject line that reads "AOW nomination: [name of athlete ('athlete' is singular, not plural)]" without actually naming an athlete.
2. Anyone nominating multiple people will have only the last nomination counted.
3. Señor Loco reserves the right to ignore e-mails with unnecessarily vulgar sections.

Baseball and JV girls basketball coach Brent Reinhardt's athletic commitments were considered in his receiving the Teacher of the Year award.

Stutzman, Slagel Sign With Colleges

NOMINATE FOR ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

GOSHEN — Bleeding Bruin Blue has learned that Bethany infielder Luke Slagel will sign a national letter of intent to continue his academic and baseball careers under coach Josh Keister at Goshen College Wednesday afternoon. Goshen, a member of the NAIA Mid-Central College Conference, finished 11-45 in 2009 including a 2-22 conference record.

Earlier this week, third baseman Jodi Stutzman signed her national letter of intent to continue her softball and academic careers at Hesston (Kan.) College. The Larks, a member of the National Junior College Athletic Association's Division II in softball, finished the 2009 season 4-27 and are coached by Andrew Sharp.

Stutzman and Slagel are both four-year letterwinners in their respective sports in addition to several other letters. They join Hannah Grieser, who signed to play volleyball at Goshen on March 30, in signing to continue their athletic careers at the postsecondary level.
