Northeast Conference Swimming and Diving Release (2/2)
SFPA's Alicia Ford
In what was the final week of competition for almost all teams, many of the swimmers registered much improved times. These couldn't come at a better time as the teams will now prepare for the NEC Championships being held two weekends from now (Feb. 11-13) at Yale University. One such swimmer who earned better times is freshman Alicia Ford of Saint Francis (PA), this week's NEC Swimmer of the Week. She set a new school record in the 100 free (53.07) and anchored the Red Flash 200 free medley team in a come-from-behind win (1:49.85) where her split was 24.01. No NEC Diver of the Week was selected.

Bryant freshman Molly Smith
Bryant freshman Molly Smith swam superb in her events last week, placing first in all five. She also set a new school record in the 200 meter freestyle (1:59.48) that just surpassed teammate Jess Looney's record-setting time from the 2006 season. This NEC Swimmer of the Week accolade is Smith's second of the 2009-10 season. No NEC Diver of the Week was selected.
