Eph sophomore Erin Altenburger (Mendham, NJ) was named the NESCAC Swimmer of the Week for her role in the Ephs 194-104 win over archrival Amherst in Muir-Samuelson Pool on Saturday.
Altenburger recorded two individual wins with NCAA "B" cut times and was instrumental in helping two Eph relay teams emerge victorious. She led the field in the 100-backstroke with a time of 58.75.
Altenburger then turned around and showed her versatility by capturing first in the 500-freestyle in 5:05.30. In the 200-yard medley relay Altenburger contributed a split time of 27.76 and she registered a split time of 53.38 in the 400-yard freestyle.
Next up for the 5-0 Ephs is a meet at Wesleyan on Saturday. A win over the Cardinals will secure the Ephs the 2009 Little Three title.
