The Empire 8 Conference recognized four student-athletes from St. John Fisher College programs in its weekly honors. Stefan Bock and Mary Kate Cusack of the basketball teams, as well as Peter Girardi and Taylor Youngkrans of the track and field teams earned Player of the Week awards in their respective sports for the week ending Jan. 25th.
 
Bock averaged 18.3 points, four rebounds, one steal and one block, while enjoying a 7-to-2 assist-to-turnover ratio, as Fisher recorded a 3-0 week. The senior guard shot 60.6 percent from the floor, 3-of-6 from 3-point range (was 0-for-15 going into the week), and 12-of-14 (85.7%) from the foul line. He scored a career-high 24 points in a win over Houghton and came back less than 24 hours later to tally 22 points in a win over Ithaca.
 
Cusack averaged 16 points, five steals and 2.7 assists, while shooting 53.6 percent from the floor and a perfect 14-for-14 from the foul line. The junior guard scored 13 of her 17 points in the second half as Fisher erased an 11-point deficit and handed Ithaca its first Empire 8 loss on Saturday. The junior scored Fisher's final six points – all of which came at the foul line. On Friday, she finished with eight steals in a win over Houghton.

Girardi set a personal best of 8.61 in the 60-meter hurdles to take first at the Houghton College Highlander Invite on Saturday to qualify for ECACs. The freshman also teamed up to help win the 4x200 relay in a time of 1:33.25. Girardi also finished third in the 400-meter dash in a time of 53.23.
 
Youngkrans set the school record at Houghton College on Saturday by winning the weight throw with a distance of 15.99 meters.  It is currently the 12th-best distance in NCAA Division III.
