She has done everything asked of her, on and off the court, with grace and a team-first attitude that has truly made an impact on all of those around her.
 
Men's – Jake Fowler, Men's Cross Country
Fowler came into the Loyola men's cross country program four years ago with a determination to make a positive impact and help the team grow in an upward direction. He has certainly done that through his ability to lead in many different ways. He endured two season-ending injuries, but he worked behind the scenes to build up the culture of his team, planning continued education and discussions for his team in the areas of mental health, community service and both personal and team goal-setting. In his last season, he returned to the lineup to help lead the Greyhounds to their best-ever finish at the Patriot League Championships and the NCAA Regionals.
