The senior guard is averaging 16.1 points per game for the Lancers. “Caden is a special young man that gives his best effort in anything he does on or off the court,” Lincolnview head coach Brett Hammons said. “It is great to see the growth he has made in both areas.” Coaches and athletic directors may nominate student athletes for the weekly award by e-mailing sports@thevwindependent.com.
