Camille Misra of the Kalamazoo College women's swimming & diving team was named the SAAC Women's Hornet of the Week on Wednesday (Jan. 18).

The women's swimming & diving team hosted the Michigan-Illinois Quad on Jan. 14 against Hope, Lake Forest, and Wheaton. Hope scored the most points at 669 points, followed by Lake Forest (432 points), Kalamazoo (427 points), and Wheaton (390 points). The Hornets had 19 top-eight finishes in the 13 events.

Misra was the highest point scorer on the women's side for Kalamazoo this past weekend. She won the 200 Back with a time of 2:10.57 and then finished third in the 50 Free at 25.28. The 50 Free finish was less than a second off her season best at 24.24, and her best time in the 200 Back this season is 2:07.76. Misra was also a part of the 400 Medley Relay team that came in fifth by touching the wall at 4:08.2. 

Misra has been named MIAA Swimmer of the Week twice in her career. In her first season, she was a member of the 400 Free Relay, which finished second, and the 200 Free Relay, which finished third, at the MIAA Championships. The following season, she captured an individual honor by placing second in the 100 Back at the MIAA Championships.

Kalamazoo will next compete in the Hope Tr-Meet that will include Olivet on Friday (Jan. 20), beginning at 6 p.m.
