BABSON PARK, Mass.—Elina Sung, a senior on the Babson College women’s swimming & diving team (Taichung, Taiwan), was named the Dunn Gaherin’s Scholar-Athlete of the Week on Wednesday.
This season, Sung has participated in diving competitions at five events, achieving three first-place finishes and two second-place finishes. In a dual meet victory over Clark on November 2, she attained a seasonal best score of 140.30 on the 1-meter board and a personal best of 149.40 on the 3-meter board.
During last year’s NEWMAC Championships, Sung achieved career-high 11-dive scores of 220.65 on the 1-meter board and 228.85 on the 3-meter event. She also recorded her highest six-dive score in the 1-meter event (145.05) against Springfield last February.
Babson (6-3) triumphed over Wesleyan, 146-144, marking its third win in a row last Saturday and will be back in action on January 18 when they face Wheaton at 12 p.m. at Morse Pool.
