Mountain West Announces 2016-17 Women’s Swimming & Diving All-Conference Team
The Mountain West announced the 2016-17 Women’s Swimming & Diving All-Conference Team yesterday. All-Conference honors were awarded to the top eight finishers in the individual events and top three relay team finishers at the 2017 MW Championships held in College Station, Texas, last week.
On Saturday, February 18, the Conference announced three new Mountain West individual awards. Air Force’s Genevieve Miller was named the Women’s Swimmer of the Meet, while Sharae Zheng of Nevada was selected as the Women’s Diver of the Meet. Miller was also honored with the league’s Senior Recognition Award prior to Saturday’s finals session. San Diego State’s McKenna Meyer earned the league’s Freshman of the Meet honor.
The Women’s Swimmer and Diver of the Year and Swimming Coach and Diving Coach of the Year honors will be determined after the 2017 NCAA Championship meet, which will be held on March 15-18 in Indianapolis.
Boise State secured the program’s third MW women’s swimming & diving title.
