The American Athletic Conference announced its weekly swimming and diving awards on Tuesday with University of Cincinnati's Chris Bready and Mitch Godar named the Men's Swimmer and Diver of the Week, respectively.
 
Bready captured a victory in the 1,000 freestyle, coming in at a time of 9:08:04 this past Friday when the Bearcats hosted Xavier and Virginia Tech. He followed that with a second-place performance in the 500 freestyle, finishing just :04 behind the winner with a time of 4:31:29. Bready holds the fastest time in the 1,000 in the conference this season and the second-fastest time in the 500. He holds the UC school record in both events, accomplished last season.
 
Godar repeats this week as the AAC Men's Diver of the Week, earning the honor for the fifth time this season. In the Bearcats' home meet on Friday, Godar placed third in the 1-meter with a score of 333.40. He finished sixth in 3-meter with a 265.70. He still continues to hold the top 1-meter diving score in the conference this year while also holding the top spot in platform. Godar's score of 337.50 on the 1-meter earlier this season places him third in the event all-time at UC.
