SALEM, Va. (BC Athletics) – Riley Corcoran of the Bridgewater College women’s basketball team has been named a finalist for the Jostens Trophy.

Corcoran is among 11 finalist for the Jostens Trophy, an award created by the Salem Rotary Club, highlighting the best Div. III basketball has to offer on and off the court. The awards focus on three major criteria: basketball ability, academic prowess, and service to one’s surrounding communities. The Jostens Trophy models the Rotary International motto of “Service Above Self” by recognizing those who truly fit the ideal of a well-rounded Division III student-athlete. The 2026 season marks the 28th time the Jostens Trophy honors will be awarded.

The Rotary Club of Salem is responsible for the initial review of the nominees, which it conducts over a two-week period. The Club’s Jostens Trophy Committee objectively reviews the nominees and uses a numerical system to pare down the pools to an initial list of 22 finalists — 11 for the men’s award and 11 for the women’s trophy.

The finalists will now be reviewed by the Jostens Trophy National Selection Committee. The committee is composed of men and women from across the country. The committee features current and former athletic administrators and head coaches, past Jostens Trophy recipients, and select members of the Division III media. The committee will spend the next week-plus reviewing the nominees with the aim of announcing the two winners the week following both national championship events.
