LEWISBURG, Pa. - Bucknell senior diver Adam Freeman (Barrington, Ill./Barrington) and sophomore swimmer Kristen Skroski (North Haven, Conn./Hopkins) both garnered awards from the Patriot League on Tuesday. Freeman was honored as Male Diver of the Week and Skroski was named the league's Female Swimmer of the Week.
Skroski was one of three double-winners for the Bison women in the team's 181-108 victory over Army last Friday. She finished first in the 200 free with a time of 1:55.97 and captured the top spot in the 500 free with a time of 5:10.90. Both times were season-bests for Skroski.
Freeman won the one-meter diving event at the Black Knight Diving Invitational with a total of 264.80 points for the top score in a field of 18 competitors. On day two of the Invitational, Freeman took second out of 15 divers in the three-meter with a mark of 279.85. Bucknell returns to action this afternoon, Tuesday, January 17, as the team will compete against Colgate in a Patriot League dual meet beginning at 12 p.m.
