ST. LOUIS, Mo. – Indiana State head coach Josh Christensen (Swimming Coach), Teresa Hall (Co-Diving Coach), and sophomore Jecza Lopez (Diver) all were named among the Missouri Valley Conference's annual award winners as voted on by the league's head coaches following the conclusion of the MVC Swimming and Diving Championships this past weekend.
Christensen guided the Sycamores to a program-record 1440.5 points as Indiana State claimed the first Missouri Valley Conference championship in program history. The Sycamores trailed by 10 points heading into the conference final day, but strong performances in all events, including five individual event winners and the 400-yard Freestyle Relay title guided the Sycamores to the 109.
