Auburn's Julie Meynen has been named SEC Female Swimmer of the Week after sweeping the sprint freestyle events in Auburn’s dual meet with Texas.
Meynen, from Luxembourg, won the 50 free in 22.75, out-touching second place by .01 seconds, and the 100 free in 49.89 seconds, out-touching second place by .09 seconds. The freshman also swam the second leg of the victorious 200 free relay. Meynen is unbeaten in the 100 free this season and has swept the sprint freestyle events in the Kentucky, Tennessee and Texas dual meets.
This is the fifth time Meynen has been honored by the conference. She also was recognized as Female Freshman of the Week four times by the conference (Oct. 18, Nov. 8, Nov. 15, Nov. 22).
The Tigers will compete in the final dual meet of the season on Saturday, when Florida visits the James E. Martin Aquatics Center. Auburn will honor the senior class prior to the start of the swimming meet, and the action can be seen on SECN+. Diving begins at 9:30 a.m. CST and swimming at 10:30 a.m. CST.
