Rebecca Ejdervik Named ASU Female Athlete of the Week


Women's swimmer Rebecca Ejdervik has been named ASU's Female Athlete of the Week for the week ending March 27th. Her performance at the NCAA Championships, which included a fifth-place finish in the 100-yard breaststroke, allowed her to receive All-American honors. "Rebecca stuck to the game-plan and came out with her best time," said Head Coach Tierney-Walker. "She was excited because not only was it her best time but that she had such a great performance at such a high level."


Sophomore Rebecca Ejdervik became head coach Dorsey Tierney-Walker's first ASU All-American last week. Ejdervik proved to be one of the nation's fastest breaststrokers as she finished fifth at the 2010 NCAA Championships in the 100-yard breaststroke. Her time of 59.90 is not only the sophomore's best time of her career, but it is also good enough for second on ASU's all-time list
