This event is the kick-off to the Homecoming 2025 weekend in Summerdale.
Below, each member will be featured along with a sample of some of their greatest achievements with the Knightly News and Central Penn College as a whole.
Dylan Bowman — Central Penn student, 2021-22
Bowman was an influential member of the Knightly News Media Club, quickly rising to president of Central Penn College’s student news organization in his first year. Bowman gained numerous accolades during his time at Central Penn, most notably taking home two prestigious Pennsylvania NewsMedia Association awards for his photography. In 2023, as part of the Knightly News coverage of Central Penn baseball, Bowman took home first place for sports photography, and took home second-place honors in 2024.
Additionally, Bowman was involved in a variety of other projects. He presented at the CPC Film Series on two occasions, first presenting on Sam Mendes’ “1917” in February 2023, then presenting his original film “Vintage” in July 2023. Bowman was also the director of photography and editing for the West Shore Connect documentary made in spring 2023. And he spearheaded the “History Preserved” series, which included stories about the Boyer House and Central Penn’s campus radio station in the 1970s and ’80s.
Bowman remains involved with Central Penn athletics, continuing as one of the Knightly News sports photographers for basketball and baseball.
Gabryelle “Abbee” Breski — Central Penn student, 2021-24
Breski is one of the most recognizable Knightly News members in club history, overseeing some of the most memorable aspects of the club’s major gains in recent years. Breski, who served as president for nearly two years, had numerous accolades. To start, Breski landed on the cover of the Knightly News quarterly commemorative publication a record five times, a testament to the type and quality of written work she engaged in during her time with the club. She also developed and published one of the most intensive stories that the Knightly News ever engaged in, as she researched two Enola-area baseball players who reached the major leagues in the 1930s and ’40s.
Beyond the written word, Breski was instrumental in the advancement of Knightly News coverage of Central Penn College athletics. During her tenure, Breski served as one of our sports photographers, making amazing strides in the quality of sports content the club made during her time at Central Penn. Additionally, Breski appeared on an astounding 14 episodes of the Knightly News Podcast, illustrating her willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty in leading the club.
Breski was also a decorated member of Gamma Beta Phi and was one of the original mentors for the West Shore Connect program, illustrating her love for community service projects and volunteerism. Breski also interned with the Central Penn College Education Foundation on two occasions, taking pride in raising money for student scholarships. Today, Breski serves as one of the Knightly News photographers for basketball and baseball.
Jenelle Dulack — Central Penn student, 2019-22
Dulack was a cornerstone member of the Knightly News Media Club’s recent history, guiding the organization through the difficult times of the COVID-19 pandemic as president. During her time with the Knightly News, Dulack took great pride in covering stories of underrepresented individuals on campus. These stories included emotional-support animals on Central Penn’s campus, gender-inclusive housing, and wrote one of the features in our “Layers of Community” series, in which she took home an Honorable Mention from the Pennsylvania NewsMedia Association.
Additionally, Dulack was our second CPC Film Series correspondent, offering her insights on a number of screenings in the series during her tenure as president. Dulack also presented the film “Hairspray” as part of the film series in May 2022, and orchestrated the CPC Film Fesitival, the first of its kind on campus, in May 2021. She was also the driving force behind The Knight Way, a video news show at Central Penn College.
The first big break in her professional career came from a desire to get to know the people who lived in her community. The “Harrisburg Smiles” project ultimately saw Dulack photograph nearly 150 people, and it was featured in in the November 2023 issue of “The Burg” magazine. After that, Dulack became a producer for the morning newscasts at WPMT FOX 43, sharing her love of video with the Harrisburg market. Since joining the team in 2023, she has been a driving force of the weekly “On the Bright Side” morning news segments alongside Emmy-nominated journalist Gabrielle Mediak.
Andrew Hunter — Central Penn student, 2021-24
Hunter was one of the key members of the Knightly News sports broadcasting team during his time at Central Penn, rising to become the club’s first journalist to receive the title of sports reporter. Hunter was integral in our coverage of basketball and baseball, often writing game wraps for Knights athletics. Outside of sports, Hunter also covered a variety of other campus happenings, including the annual legal studies mock trial, the Knightly News representing Central Penn at the #CollegeSeries event with the Phillies and numerous other stories.
Besides writing about sports and broadcasting it, Hunter was the goalie for Central Penn the men’s soccer team, appearing in 29 games in his career, leading the Knights to a 12-4-1 record and an Eastern States Athletics Conference championship berth in 2023. Hunter also managed to rack up 164 saves through his two seasons as the Knights’ goalkeeper and was an anchor in Central Penn’s run of recent success. He was the Knightly News Athlete of the Year in 2024.
Hunter also stood out academically, earning various awards for his in-the-classroom achievements. He received a 2023 United States Collegiate Athletic Association Academic All-American designation and made the dean’s list seven times. In addition, he was a student worker in the Athletic Department, where he would work alongside the baseball team and basketball teams, helping keep score for basketball and working gameday operations for baseball.
The Knightly News Hall of Fame ceremony is a private event for those being inducted, their families, past hall-of-fame inductees and supporters of the club. If you would like to attend the event, please email [email protected] for more information.
