INDIANAPOLIS – Findlay received both Great Midwest Athletic Conference Swimming & Diving Athletes of the Week awards after facing Ashland and Tiffin over the past week of competition.
 
Men’s Athlete of the Week
Jaeger Loran
Findlay
Freshman
Fort Wayne, IN (South HS)
 
Loran won the 100 yard backstroke to aid the Oilers in a head-to-head victory over Ashland, 153-74.
 
He was also second in the 400 medley relay and competed in the 200 freestyle as the Oilers feature two first-year standouts in the event along with Tim Stollings, who owns the conference record.
 
Versus Tiffin, he was second in the 200 medley relay but shined in the 100 yard backstroke again, beating last year’s conference champion and last year’s swimmer of the year in the process.
 
His winning time of 52.72 was very similar to his production vs. Ashland. Loran also beat teammate Paul Pavala and Tiffin’s Miguel Angel Garcia Arroyo in the 200 backstroke for another first-place finish.
 
For icing on the cake, Loran contributed to a winning 200 freestyle relay with a time of 1:27.98.  
 
Women’s Athlete of the Week
Hanna Cederholm

Cederholm won the 200 IM, 400 freestyle relay and 100 breaststroke as the Oilers nearly doubled up Ashland in the team scoring, 150-88.
 
The senior has been sterling in the pool this year as she collected her fourth award of the current season.
 
Cederholm already owns the conference record in the 200 IM as she won by over 10 seconds with a time of 2:10.75.
