ERIE, Pa. – In conjunction with celebrating NCAA Division III Week, The Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference (AMCC) announced the All-Sportsmanship Team for 2021-22 Winter season.
All institution sport teams which compete for an AMCC championship may select one member from their team who displays good sportsmanship throughout the season to be a member of the All-AMCC Sportsmanship Team. These individuals are selected by vote of their teammates.
Seniors Barbie Cessar (Slippery Rock, PA/Slippery Rock) and Gibson Hoce (Palm Harbor, FL/Palm Harbor U.) represent the men's and women's swimming and diving teams. Junior Brianna Dean (New Castle, PA/Neshannock) was selected by women's basketball, while senior Jacob Zeis (Buffalo, NY/Canisius) was voted for men's basketball.

Such sportsmanship shall be evident toward teammates, coaches, opponents, officials and fans. He/She must also serve as a positive representative of school spirit when a spectator at other teams' sporting events.
