Florida State’s Chad Mylin has been named the ACC Men’s Swimmer of the Week, and Seminole Joshua Davidson has been selected as the ACC Men’s Diver of the Week. On the women’s side, Caitlin Cooper of Virginia has been tabbed the ACC Women’s Swimmer of the Week, and the Cavaliers’ Kylie Towbin has been named Diver of the Week.

Mylin recorded three top-five finishes in Florida State’s meet against No. 6 Florida. The senior from Longwood, Florida, placed second in the 50 free with an NCAA provisional time of 19.75, and was part of the second-place 200 medley relay team. Mylin was also on the 400 free relay team for the Seminoles that placed fifth.

Davidson won both the 1-meter and 3-meter competitions for Florida State. The freshman from Tomball, Texas, finished at least 23 points ahead of the second-place finisher in both events, and scored a 318.23 on the 1-meter, and a 355.58 on the 3-meter.

Cooper shined in Virginia’s 177-123 victory over No. 7 Tennessee. The senior from Atlanta placed first in all four events in which she competed, clocking NCAA B cuts in the 50 free (22.35) and 100 free (49.40). Cooper was also part of the 200 medley relay and 400 free relay teams for the Cavaliers.

Towbin had two top-10 finishes at the Tennessee Diving Invitational, placing ninth on the 1-meter and fourth on the platform for Virginia. The junior from New Canaan, Connecticut, placed 21st on the 3-meter, with her scores good enough for a first-place finish on the 1-meter and a fourth-place finish on the 3-meter when factored in for the dual meet against Tennessee.
