Louisville's Grace Oglesby has been named the ACC Women's Swimmer of the Week for the week ending Oct. 13.Â
Oglesby had a stellar performance at the SMU classic for Louisville. The senior from Goshen, Kentucky, helped the Cardinals place first out of six teams, including No. 13 Auburn. Oglesby finished in the top three in all six of her events, winning three and recording NCAA provisional times in the 100 butterfly (51.62) and 200 butterfly (1:55.09).
She flew to the top of the podium in the 100 butterfly, winning the event in 51.62 for the second-fastest time in the country this year and an NCAA "B" standard. She beat the runner up in the final by more than two seconds. She finished the 200 butterfly a full four seconds ahead of Auburn's Jewels Harris, who took silver.Â
She also helped the relays as well. The Cardinals opened the meet with a win in the 400 medley relay as the team of Ashlyn Schoof (53.78), Mariia Astashkina (1:00.14), Grace Oglesby (51.45), and Lainey Visscher (48.78) combined to win in 3:34.15.Â
