SCRANTON, Pa. – Senior swimmer Aviah Dahlgren has been named this week's Peggy's Scranton Athlete of the Week after a dominant stretch of performances that helped lead The University of Scranton women's swimming team to victories in both the Wilkes/Lebanon Valley tri-meet and a road win at Elizabethtown.
Dahlgren set the tone at the Wilkes tri-meet by capturing first place in the 1000 freestyle with a time of 10:58.06, providing early momentum as Scranton defeated Wilkes, 181–58, and Lebanon Valley, 203–26. Her distance performance was a key factor in the Royals' commanding team effort.
She followed that showing with another outstanding performance at Elizabethtown, winning both the 200 freestyle (2:04.02) and the 500 freestyle (5:26.60) to help Scranton earn a 189–71 road victory. Dahlgren also contributed on relays during the meet, further adding to Scranton's point total.
