Also, congratulations to Josh Cunningham (FB) and Lauren Harding (VB) on your acceptance as National Strength and Conditioning Association All-Americans!
Josh makes his second appearance as an NSCA All-American. A leader by example, his power clean ranks sixth all-time in Redlands football history; this is quite a feat considering Redlands has been playing football for 100 years. His character and effort have put him in position to lead the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) in sacks per game. Josh's determination, consistency, and leadership set him apart both in the weight room and on the gridiron.
Lauren emanates the meanings of powerful, resilient, competitive, and tough. Her work ethic has enabled her to increase her squat by an astounding 92 pounds in the past two years and paved the way for her inaugural AVCA All-Region Award. Her role on the team as the libero demands leg strength and stamina; combining these with her skills, she ranked as high as third in the nation in digs per set. She is a model student-athlete in every sense of the words and is largely responsible for the "work-man"-like attitude that is now Bulldog Volleyball team culture.
