Hale Earns Swimmer of the Week

WAC RELEASE

DENVER, Colo. – Junior Katie Hale has been selected as this week's TicketSmarter Western Athletic Conference Swimmer of the Week, as announced by the conference office on Tuesday.

"She's really matured as a race," said head coach Mark Sowa. "We always knew she was really talented and every year she learns more and more about how to be poised during a race. 50.2 on the hammer there (in the 400-yard medley relay) was really good. It's fun, you could see her on her second turn breathing to the left because she wanted to see where the rest of the field was.
