NEWPORT NEWS, Va. - Peter Nachtwey of George Washington men's swimming and diving has garnered Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Week honors for the second time.
Nachtwey was recognized Tuesday for his record-setting diving performance in Saturday's 185-115 win over Boston College. The freshman from Ohio established a new GW record on the 3-meter board in his Charles E. Smith debut, posting a score of 362.62 to win the event. He also placed second in the 1-meter competition behind teammate Jake Ortiz with a score of 323.02.
