Central College’s Erin Manion and Tyler Olson were honored by the Iowa Conference yesterday.

Manion was named as the Female Athlete of the Week, while Olson was chosen as the Football Defensive Player of the Week.

Manion scored the first and last goal in Central’s 3-2 win over Wartburg on Saturday. She leads the Dutch with seven goals and has 17 points this season as Central has started the season 9-1. They’re 2-0 in the Iowa Conference.

Olson had 13 tackles, one pass break-up and one interception in Central’s 35-17 win at Simpson Saturday. He was a part of a big goal line stand in the third quarter, and his interception came on Simpson’s final possession of the game. The Dutch are 3-2 overall and 2-1 in the IIAC.
