Women's Swimming | Nov 06, 2017

SAINT LEO, Fla. – Saint Leo freshman Cecilie Holten was named the Sunshine State Conference Women's Swimmer of the Week on Monday, following her performance over the weekend in the Lions' 195-66 win over Rollins College.

Holten won the 100 Breaststroke with an NCAA "B" cut time of 1:04.15 – the fastest time in that event in the SSC this season, and fifth-fastest thus far in 2017-18 in NCAA Division II.

She also captured the 200 Breaststroke in a time of 2:22.40 – the second-fastest time in that event this season in the SSC – and swam the breaststroke leg for Saint Leo's first-place team in the 400 Medley Relay (4:04.61).

The SSC weekly honor is the first for Saint Leo women's swimming this season.

Saint Leo men's and women's swimming returns to competition on Friday, Nov. 17, when the Lions travel to Melbourne, Fla., to participate in the three-day Florida Tech Panther Invitational.
