Mendy De Rooi earned women's athlete of the week after breaking two school records and posting NAIA top times in 11 events. De Rooi broke the school record in the prelims on the 100 fly with a time of 55.02 only to touch the wall in 54.87 in the finals to reset the record. She followed that up by splitting a 1:53.72 to lead off the 800 free relay, breaking UC's previous school record of 1:51.10. Both of those records were set back in 2012. De Rooi notched career best times in each of her individual events holding the fastest time in the NAIA in six of her seven individual events, while being a staple on the Patriots five relays that currently hold the fastest time in the NAIA.
