ELMHURST, Ill. – Freshman Morgan Stepp was named the Summit League's Women's Swimmer of the Week, the conference office announced Tuesday.
Stepp earns her first career Swimmer of the Week award after recording three individual first-place finishes to help the Mavericks defeat league foe South Dakota, 175-123. The Parker, Colo., native won the 500 free (5:12.97), 1,000 free (10:40.18) and 200 IM (2:10.38) in the dual against the Coyotes.
