The College of Wooster's Emma Connors earned North Coast Athletic Conference Athlete of the Week honors following the Fighting Scots' swimming and diving team's season lid-lifter for the second straight year.
Connors was the distance ace in Saturday's 181-161 win over the University of Mount Union. The junior's meet started with the winning time of 11:19.97 in the 1,000 freestyle. She later returned to go 2:05.77 in the 200 freestyle, and capped the day with the winning time of 5:36.36 in the 500 freestyle.
Connors' first NCAC Athlete of the Week honor came during her sophomore year. She anchored Wooster's winning 500 freestyle relay (4:52.44), led off the winning 3x500 freestyle relay (16:30.61), and was part of the first-place 200 freestyle relay (1:41.51) when the Scots knocked off Div. I Cleveland State University at last year's season-opening Viking Relay Challenge.
Next, Wooster is at Malone College for a 1 p.m. dual meet on Saturday, October 29.
