First-year honored after win over Richmond
NEWPORT NEWS, Va. - George Washington's Isabela Patino has been named Atlantic 10 Women's Swimming and Diving Rookie of the Week after leading the Colonials to a dual-meet win over Richmond last Friday.
Patino recorded a pair of individual wins in season-best times to help the Buff and Blue knock off the Spiders in conference action at The St. James sports complex in Springfield, Va., to close the fall season.
A first-year from California, Patino led a 1-2-3-4 finish in the 100-yard butterfly with a time of 56.82 seconds, which ranks eighth on the program's all-time top 10 list. She also captured the 200-yard freestyle, touching in 1:54.01 to edge teammate Emily Zhang by two-tenths of a second.
This is the first A-10 weekly honor for Patino, who joins teammates Andrea Moussier (three times) and Dylan Arzoni (two times) in earning the accolade this season.
Now, GW heads into its winter break before beginning preparations for championship season. The Colonials' next competition is a local tri-meet at Georgetown with American on Jan. 12, 2019.
