William Smith's Casey Sherwin was tabbed the Liberty League Women’s Swimming & Diving Co-Rookie of the Week by the conference office today. She led the Herons to victory in the Skidmore Sprint Invitational on Saturday.

Sherwin factored into both of William Smith’s victories in the three-team meet. She posted the lone individual victory for the Herons, winning the 50-yard butterfly in 29.24 seconds, 0.02 seconds ahead of the runner-up. Sherwin also swam a lap for the winning 200 freestyle relay team that touched the wall in 1:47.06.

Additionally, Sherwin turned in a second-place finish in the 50 backstroke in a time of 30.75, 0.14 seconds off the winning pace, and a third-place effort in the 100 butterfly (1:05.99).

William Smith won the invitational with a score of 232.5, 11 points better than the host Thoroughbreds and 41.5 ahead of Vassar.

William Smith will be back in the pool, Feb. 17-20, when the Herons compete in the Upper New York State Collegiate Swimming Association Championships.

Athletes of the Week

Abbie DiPalma

William Smith Rowing

DiPalma served as the coxswain for the William Smith varsity eight that finished second in the petite final at the ECAC Championships on Sunday. In their morning heat, the Herons committed a false start, but then turned in the third fastest time of the heats (out of 20 crews in three heats). William Smith covered the course in 6:59.640, then logged a time of 6:57.688 in the petite final, second only to Division I New Hampshire.

Kevin Curtin

Hobart Lacrosse

Facing the toughest defense in the nation, Curtin posted his third consecutive hat trick. He completed his collegiate career with a three-goal performance at Bryant on Thursday. The Bulldogs came into the contest allowing just 6.44 goals per game, but the Statesmen netted nine goals, the second highest total against Bryant this season. Curtin capped his career 11th in career goals and career points and 12th in career assists.
