LA GRANDE, Ore. - The following CCC student-athletes have been recognized as Red Lion Players of the Week for their performances during the period August 24-30.

Corban’s Jordan Farr has been named the Red Lion Men’s Soccer Defensive Player of the Week.

Farr, in his first game back after missing all of 2014 due to injury proved vital in the triumph for the Warriors, as not only did he make saves, but he registered the assist on Corban's first goal of the game, playing a long ball over the top to an on-running Corban attacker who buried the shot to give Corban the lead.
