COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.— Colorado Mesa University's Aron Jonsson was tabbed as the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Men's Swimmer of the Week on Thursday after the fifth-year Icelandic breaststroke star helped lead the Mavericks in last week's double dual against NCAA Division I foes Utah and UNLV in Salt Lake City.
 
Jonsson set season-best and NCAA "B" cut times in both breaststroke events as the Mavs claimed a 187.5-112.5 win over UNLV.
 
His 200-yard breaststroke altitude-adjusted time of 1:58.51 ranks him second in Division II this season and allowed him to win the event by 1.39 seconds over teammate Marcos Otero while beating seven Division I competitors in the field of 11.
 
Jonsson also took second in the 100-yard breaststroke with a time of 54.92 seconds (adjusted) behind his teammate and beat eight Division I competitors while ranking 14th in Division II this season.
 
A native of Kópavogur, Iceland, Jonsson now has won two career RMAC Swimmer of the Week honors.  He was also recognized on Nov. 6, 2025.
 
The Mavericks, ranked second in the October edition of the monthly CSCAA NCAA Division II rankings, are preparing for next week's TYR/CMU Invitational, which begins Wednesday (Nov. 18) in the El Pomar Natatorium.
