Indianapolis, Ind. -- Youngstown State sophomore diver Casey Hill has been named the Horizon League's Diver of the Week for third consecutive week and the fourth time this season, the league announced on Tuesday.
Cleveland State's Joanna Olsson is the Horizon League Women's Swimmer of the Week for Nov 16-22.
Hill, a sophomore from Bethlehem, Penn., has won diver of the week for the fourth time this season. She competed in the Radford Invitational last weekend, winning both diving events she competed in. Hill earned a 247.85 in the one-meter dive and recorded a 262.50 in the three-meter dive.
Olsson, a sophomore from Stockholm, Sweden, has earned her first swimming of the week honors for the season while breaking Cleveland State records along with two Horizon League records. She won the 400 Individual Medley (4:20.09) and took second-place in the 500 Freestyle (4:53.56) and 200 Individual Medley (2:04.86) last weekend at the Northwestern TYR Invitational. She is currently leading the Horizon League in all of the individual events she competed in.
Hill has been selected as the Diver of the Week a league-best four times while Milwaukee's Kelsey George has earned the nod three times. Hill was previously tabbed Diver of the Week on Oct. 25, Nov. 8 and Nov. 15.
The Penguins return to action on Jan. 7 when they visit Ohio.
