Christa White

Freshman Christa White (Washington, DC) earned her second
consecutive Liberty League “Rookie of the Week” as she helped Union come to
within nine points of winning at Hamilton last Saturday.  White captured first place in two individual
events (50 freestyle–25.52 and 100 freestyle–55.84) while swimming anchor of
the first-place 200 Medley Relay team and led off the 200 freestyle relay team,
which finished second.

White picked up first award two weeks ago when she won the
50 free, the 100 free and the 500 free in the Dutchwomen's 167-79 victory over
Rensselaer and came back against Middlebury to win the 50 free while finishing
second in the 100 free and third in the 200 free.
