TUCSON, Ariz. — Two Arizona Swim & Dive standouts earned weekly honors from the Big 12 Conference, the league office announced on Thursday. Diver Luke Hernandez was selected as the Big 12 Men's Diver of the Week, while swimmer Riley Botton was named the Big 12 Women's Co-Swimmer of the Week.

Hernandez, a freshman competing in his first official collegiate event, took first place in both the 1-meter and 3-meter competitions. The Holly Springs, N.C. native scored a 342.85 in the 1-meter and a 335.75 in the 3-meter. Hernandez is the second Arizona diver to win a weekly award since the program joined the Big 12 Conference last season.

Botton, a senior, claimed gold in the 50 freestyle with a time of 22.29 and contributed to a pair of relay golds in the 200 medley relay (21.66 split) and the 100 free relay (10.38 split). The California native also picked up a fourth place finish in the 100 freestyle to contribute to the first weekly award of her career.

The Wildcats are back in action as a team on Thursday, Oct. 30 as they kick off a two-day meet against SMU and TCU in Dallas.
