POTSDAM, N.Y. – Junior women's hockey player Jalynn Castro (Dexter, N.Y./Syracuse Valley Eagles) and sophomore swimmer Katherine Steeves (Kingston, N.Y./Kingston) have been named SUNY Potsdam Athletes of the Week for the week ending January 17.

Castro picked up four points in two games against Chatham University over the weekend. In Friday's 2-2 tie, she netted both of Potsdam's goals. In Saturday's 3-2 overtime victory, the forward assisted on the Bears' first goal and scored the game-winner in OT. She currently leads the team in goals (7), assists (5), and points (12).

Steeves had four individual wins across two meets this past weekend. She finished first in the 200 IM (2:21.28) and the 100 Fly (1:04.04) against St. Lawrence on Friday.
