PHILADELPHIA - Dylan Price, of Sicklerville, NJ, will be named the "2016 Amateur of the Year" at the Briscoe Awards on Sunday, October 15, 2017, at Xfinity Live! in Philadelphia. Price won the US National Championships in Reno, Nevada and took home a Bronze Medal at the Youth World Championships, in St. Petersburg, Russia, both in 2016.
