Two Earn MIAA Athlete of the Week Accolades

Two Hope College juniors have claimed MIAA Athlete of the Week distinction: Parker Hovey in men's basketball and Dylan Terpstra in men's track and field.

Hovey (Hart, Michigan / Hart) is the MIAA Men's Basketball Athlete of the Week for the first time.

Terpstra (Hudsonville, Michigan / Hudsonville) is the MIAA Men's Indoor Track Athlete of the Week for the first time.

Hovey averaged 16.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.0 blocks over two games: a 71-64 victory at Ohio Northern University on Friday and a 60-59 win at Ohio Wesleyan University on Saturday.

The 6-foot-5 forward matched his career high with 21 points on 80% field-goal shooting at Ohio Wesleyan (8-of-10). He sank two go-ahead free throws with 10 seconds remaining and made all five of his attempts at the foul line.

Terpstra clocked the fastest 400-meter time in NCAA Division III on Friday with a school-record run of 48.16 seconds at Grand Valley State University's Holiday Open.

The communication major eclipsed Brandon Wolliston's 2017 Flying Dutchmen record in the event on GVSU's 300-meter track and topped a field of 18 runners during the season-opening meet.

Terpstra also led off the second-place 4x400 relay that finished in 3:20.58.
