Drew teDuits was\u00a0honored Monday with the Big Ten Conference\u2019s Medal of Honor for excellence in athletics and academics.<\/p>\n

The award is presented annually at each Big Ten institution to a male and female student-athlete in the graduating class who has demonstrated proficiency in scholarship and athletics. Fellow Wisconsin student-athlete Kimberly Dinh also received the award.\u00a0The conference\u2019s most exclusive award, it was the first of its kind in intercollegiate athletics to recognize academic and athletic excellence.<\/p>\n

DREW teDUITS<\/strong><\/p>\n

The third Badger swimmer to win an individual men\u2019s NCAA championship and first since 1959, teDuits performed at a high level both in the pool and in the classroom during his time at Wisconsin.<\/p>\n

A two-time Academic All-Big Ten selection, teDuits won both an NCAA championship and Big Ten championship in the 200 backstroke as a sophomore in 2013. He also had an honorable mention All-America finish in the 100 backstroke at the 2013 NCAA Championships.<\/p>\n

teDuits struck gold once again this season as a senior, claiming another Big Ten crown in the 200 backstroke. The All-American finished sixth in the event at the 2015 NCAA Championships, while also earning honorable mention All-America status as part of UW\u2019s 400 medley relay team.<\/p>\n

During his senior season, the Fitchburg, Wisconsin, native claimed 24 first-place finishes, including 11 in the 200 back alone.<\/p>\n

In addition to earning first-team All-Big Ten accolades in 2013 and 2015, teDuits was also a second-team All-Big Ten winner in 2014.<\/p>\n

teDuits capped off his illustrious swimming career in Madison with school records in the 100 backstroke, 200 backstroke and was also part of UW\u2019s record-holding 400 medley relay team. teDuits holds the second-fastest time in program history for the 200 individual medley.<\/p>\n

A kinesiology major, teDuits plans to attend dental school. He is the fifth swimmer in UW history to earn the Big Ten Medal of Honor and the first since Maggie Meyer in 2011.<\/p>\n

The Big Ten Medal of Honor was first awarded in 1915 to one student-athlete from the graduating class of each university who had \u201cattained the greatest proficiency in athletics and scholastic work.\u201d Big Ten schools currently feature more than 8,200 student-athletes, but only 24 earn this prestigious award on an annual basis. In the 99 years of the Medal of Honor, more than 1,300 student-athletes have earned this distinction.<\/p>\n

WISCONSIN’S BIG TEN MEDAL OF HONOR RECIPIENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1914, the conference endowed a Medal of Honor, to be awarded annually at each institution, to a student in the graduating class that has demonstrated proficiency in scholarship and athletics. Winners in 1964 were 50th Anniversary winners of the Medal of Honor. Beginning in 1982, a senior woman student-athlete from each institution has also been awarded the Big Ten Medal of Honor.<\/p>\n
