The following CCC student-athletes have been recognized as the Embrace Health-Santiam Hospital Players of the Week for their performances during the period Dec 7-13, 2020.
Women’s Basketball - Player
Lewis-Clark State College’s Kiara Burlage was named the Embrace Health-Santiam Hospital Women’s Basketball Player of the Week.
Burlage, a six-foot senior forward, had a record-setting performance on Saturday, setting the LC State single-game record for made free throws with 18.
