WASHINGTON, DC - The Atlantic 10 Conference has named GW freshman swimmer Niccolo Wilson as Men's A-10 Rookie Performer of the Week for the second time this season after the Colonials finished third at the URI Invitational, against La Salle, Massachusetts and Rhode Island, on Jan. 14-15.
Wilson competed in six events for the Colonials, tying for second in the 100-yard freestyle (48.34) and led off the men's 200-yard freestyle relay team that finished third.
The San Diego, CA, native tabbed his first weekly honor on Nov. 8, after GW defeated Drexel at Charles E. Smith Center.
