LAKE FOREST, IL - Lake Forest College swimmer Eric Boarini (Wadsworth, IL/Carmel) was named Midwest Conference Male Swimmer of the Week for his performance in the Foresters' dual meet at Lawrence University on Saturday, January 12.

Boarini was a three-time winner at Lawrence, capturing the 100- and 200-yard freestyle events and anchoring the winning 400-yard medley relay team. He won the 100 freestyle in 50.58 seconds, and his time of 1:50.55 in the 200 freestyle was a season-best by more than a second-and-a-half. In the relay he teamed with Brady Lowdermilk, Joe Isaacs and Aaron Lawlor to record another season-best time of 3:51.00. 

Saturday marks the fourth time this season that Boarini has won two individual events and a relay in a dual meet, leading the Foresters to a 3-1 record.  He also accomplished the feat in victories over Benedictine University, Illinois Wesleyan University and Carthage College.
