Anthone, Mroz, and Wright Earn MAAC Weekly Awards

After earning first-place finishes in multiple events against Colgate last Saturday, the Canisius swimming and diving program earned three MAAC weekly awards, the conference office announced Wednesday.

Junior Vivian Mroz was named MAAC Female Diver of the Week after she placed second in both the 1-meter (240.07) and 3-meter (253.57) events. This marks the second time the junior has earned this award in this season.

On the men's side, senior Travis Wright won both the 1-meter and 3-meter competitions and broke two pool records at Colgate. Wright's score of 344.40 took top-honors in the 1-meter and posted a 407.17 points en route to a first-place honor in the 3-meter event.

On the women's side, senior Rebecca Anthone won the 50-freestyle (24.70), 200-freestyle (1:55.21), and 500-freestyle (5:16.12) races. Anthone is now a three-time winner of the conference women's swimmer of the week award this season.

Both the men's and women's swimming and diving teams will return to action Nov. 11, when the Griffs travel to swim at St. Bonaventure. The meet in Olean, N.Y., has a diving start time of 10 a.m., and a swim start time of 1 p.m.
