COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.— The Colorado Mesa University Mavericks swept all four of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Swimmer and Diver of the Week awards that were announced by conference officials. The Mavs have now swept the awards three time this season.
The latest honors went
Guillaume Guth (Men's Swimmer),
Jax Juarros (Men's Diver),
Kenya Meyer (Women's Diver) and
Ada Qunell (Women's Swimmer) after each turned in impressive NCAA Championship qualifying performances while helping lead the Mavericks to convincing team victories at last week's TYR/CMU Invitational.
Guth, who received his second RMAC Swimmer of the Week award of the season, set NCAA Championship qualifying times in nine different events, including four individual events and five different relays. His 100 (42.66) and 200 Free (1:34.41) times were NCAA Championship "A" cut times and rank him first and second in the nation, respectively. He also set six new school records as well as meet and pool records in five.
Juarros has been recognized as the RMAC Diver of the Week three times this season and six times in his career. He swept the diving events during the invitational, going more than 100 points over the NCAA qualifying standards on both boards while booking a trip to the NCAA Pre-Championship qualification meet. He scored 573.90 points on the 1-meter and 574.00 on the 3-meter.
Meyer also picked up her third RMAC award of the season and the fifth of her career. She set meet record scores of 522.30 (3m) and 483.50 (1m) to sweep the TYR/CMU Invitational events and book a trip to the national pre-qualification meet. Her 1-meter score was also a pool record.
Qunell set the nation's best time of 1:46.95 in the 200 Free while helping the Mavs also take the national lead in the 800 Free Relay. That mark, an NCAA "A" qualifying time, also broke the school, pool and meet record. The Whitefish, Montana native also broke the Mavs' oldest school record in the 100 fly, a mark that had stood since 2019. She also broke the meet and pool records in the 100 free, breaking marks that had stood since 2018.
Qunell set NCAA qualifying times in different disciplines.
