RICHMOND, Va. — Senior Jamie Koo was named the CAA Women's Co-Swimmer of the Week and junior Erin Murphy was named the CAA Women's Diver of the Week, the league announced Tuesday afternoon. For Koo, it's her first weekly award win this year, while Murphy picks up her fourth.

Koo, a Singapore native, won three events in the Huskies' 222-76 win over Vermont, picking up individual wins in the 50-yard freestyle (23.36) and the 100-yard butterfly (56.27). The senior also was part of the 200 Medley Relay team that won their event, posting a time of 1:45.78. She currently holds the fastest time in the 50 free in the CAA this season.

It was another week of dominance for Murphy, a Duxbury, Massachusetts native. She posted a mark of 272.10 to win the 1M Dive, which is above the NCAA Championship standard of 265 points. From the three-meter board, she earned a score of 278.55 to win the event. This was her fourth-straight meet where she won at least one diving event.

Next up, the Huskies head up to Dartmouth College for the Tate Ramsden Invitational Friday, Jan. 19 at 5 p.m. and Saturday, Jan. 20 at 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.
