FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (EMUEagles.com) — Sophomore Kylie Sutherlin (Fishers, Ind.) of the Eastern Michigan University women's swimming and diving team was named the CollegeSwimming.com Co-Swimmer of the Week for the Mid-American Conference, following her dominating performance at the Ohio State Winter Invitational Feb. 11-12. Sutherlin is the third Eagle to win the weekly award this season, joining Delaney Duncan and Nicole Swartz in the ranks.
Racing against swimmers from some of the top teams in the nation, Sutherlin used a pair of career-best times to lock up two top-five finishes. The Fishers, Ind. native top placement over the weekend came in the 100 butterfly where she posted a third-place finish at 55.94 after clocking a career-best time of 55.88 in the prelims. The sophomore then went on to take fifth in the 200 individual medley with a career-best time of 2:05.72.
