The Duke Swimming and Diving Teams just kicked off their 2015-16 season over the weekend against Pitt, and two Duke swimmers have earned conference awards for their performances in the Blue Devils’ first meet. Peter Kropp on the men’s team and Mickayla Hinkle on the women’s team were both recently named the ACC Conference Male and Female Swimmers of the Week.
Junior Peter Kropp won three events in the season-opening meet, posting the fastest times for the 100 and 200 breaststroke so far this season in addition to finishing in first as part of the 200 medley relay team.
