Snodgrass named Big Ten Swimmer of the Week

Sophomore Brooklynn Snodgrass was named the Big Ten Swimmer of the Week by the conference Tuesday.

This is Snodgrass’s second Swimmer of the Week honor this season, fourth of her career and seventh Big Ten weekly award overall.

Last weekend in a dual meet split against Tennessee and Kentucky, Snodgrass won the 100-meter backstroke in 54.6 seconds, her fourth NCAA B cut in the event this year.

She also posted a time of 1:57.92, her third NCAA B cut on the season in that event, as she won the 200-meter backstroke.

Snodgrass helped the team to second-place finishes in the 200-medley and 400-freesyle relays.

She won the award for the first time this season on Oct. 22 after winning the 100-meter and 200-meter backstroke in the SMU Classic.

The Hoosiers’ next competition will be Dec. 5-7 at the USA Swimming Winter Nationals in Knoxville, Tenn.
