Senior Joe Turk has been named ACC Swimming athlete of the week after his unbeaten showing at the Ohio State Winter Invitational. Competing in the last meet of his collegiate career, Turk placed first in all four of his events.
“Joe Turk finished off his senior career very well,” Notre Dame head coach Mike Litzinger said. “We’re very proud of all of our seniors, and Joe had an exceptional meet.”
Georgia Tech freshman McKenzie Campbell was named ACC Swimming women’s athlete of the week, the conference announced on Tuesday.
Campbell, who has been one of the Tech’s best fly swimmers this season, earned the honor after finishing the 100 fly at the Yellow Jacket Invitational in a personal-best time of 54.85. It was the fastest 100 fly time on the team this season, and is tied for seventh on the program’s all-time list.
A native of Greensboro, N.C., Campbell finished first in the 200 fly three times this season, and has earned 11 top-3 finishes overall.
The Georgia Tech women are preparing for the ACC Swimming Championships in Greensboro, N.C., which runs Feb. 19-22. The men will compete the following weekend, Feb. 26-29.
