Tinklepaugh keeps West Genesee lacrosse team from feeling pressure   

This week, our CNY Central Athlete of the Week is boys lacrosse senior Ryan Tinklepaugh, who's delivered all season on the field, gathering numerous ground balls to go along with his nine points.

CNYCentral Athlete- Westhill's Anna Ross   

More is expected of Ross than most sophomores, but having been a captain as a freshman, responsibility is something she's gotten used to.

CNY Central Athlete: Taylor-Rae Danforth   

They say gymnastics is one of the most difficult arts to master in the wide world of sports. Which is what makes Jamesville-Dewitt's Taylor-Rae Danforth even more impressive.

CNYCentral Athlete: J-D's Tyler Cavanaugh   

It would be easy to get lost in the mix when future Orange star Dajuan Coleman plays on your team, but Tyler Cavanaugh makes himself noticed with his attitude and terrific play on the hardwood.

CNY Central Athlete: Brendan Smith   

Smith is a Track and Cross Country runner at Christian Brothers Academy in Syracuse. His team needed help in the Steeple Chase event, an event that Smith had never done before. To say Smith rose to the challenge would be an understatement, he won a New York State Championship in the event.

Athlete Elise Camilleri scored 4 goals in the game, leading the way, just as the senior has been since she was called up to varsity in the 8th grade.
