The Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Confernce announced the 2017 Swimming & Diving All Conference awards as the leagues nine head coaches voted upon the Athlete, Newcomer and Coach of the Year while the All-SCIAC recipients were based on performance at the SCIAC Championships.
Matt Williams of Claremont-Mudd-Scripps repeated as the SCIAC Men's Athlete of the Year as he continued his successful career taking the title at the SCIAC Championships in the 800 free relay, 100 fly, 100 back, 200 back and 400 medley relay. In the 100 yard butterfly he broke the SCIAC record with a time of 48.66. Matt led-off the SCIAC meet-record setting 800 yard freestyle relay with a 200 yard freestyle time of 1:38.35, which broke the SCIAC meet record in the 200 free. Williams was the 2016 National Champion in the 100 back and will look to defend his title in 2017. The 2014 Newcomer of the Year qualified for NCAAs in the 100 back, 100 fly, 800 free relay and 200 back. His times in the 200 yard freestyle, 100 yard backstroke and 100 yard butterfly each rank in the top 5 in the NCAA DIII this year.
Gallup won conference titles in both the 100 and 200 Breast to become Caltech's first SCIAC champion swimmer since 1996 and its first double winner in the same meet since 1982. He also swam key legs on three program record-setting relays, including the 400 Medley which placed third as Caltech's first All-SCIAC relay since 1993. He is set to become the Beavers' first representative at the NCAA National Championships since 1983.
Hughes joined Caltech this past summer and immediately hit the ground running in his first stint as a head coach. The Beavers set 13 program records, including four relays, and placed sixth overall for their best finish at the SCIAC Championships in over a decade and a mere six points shy of fifth place. The last time Caltech finished as high came in 1999, when only seven teams competed in the SCIAC, while the Beavers also defeated the most teams (three) since 1986 and scored their highest point total since 1989.
