DURHAM, N.H. - Sophomore swimmer Anna Metzler (Regensburg, Germany) of the women's swimming and diving team and junior alpine skier Patrick Kenney (Hingham, Mass.) of the men's skiing team were named this week's Service Credit Union Student-Athlete Spotlight honors for competition from Jan. 13-19.
Anna was named the America East Swimmer of the Week for her performance in the wins at Stony Brook (Jan. 18) and Binghamton (Jan. 19). This is the fourth time this season and the sixth time in her career she has won this honor.
She won four individual events over the two meets. On Saturday in the 142-88 win at Stony Brook she won the 1000 yard free style (10 minutes, 22.94 seconds) and the 200 backstroke (2:05.31). Then on Sunday she broke two pool records at Binghamton in the 193-107 win. She set the pool record in the 200 free with a time of 1:53.04 and in the 200 IM with a time of 2:05.34.
Patrick earned the first individual victory of his career and posted the University of New Hampshire ski team's second alpine triumph of the weekend with his first-place finish in the men's giant slalom at the season-opening Harvard Carnival on Saturday. He is coming off a highly successful year which he earned All-America Second Team with a 10th place finish in the giant slalom at the NCAA National Championships.
