Carrico, Badrian Highlight CAA Swimming & Diving Honors

WILMINGTON, N.C. – UNCW's William Carrico and Ethan Badrian highlighted the Seahawk award winners which were announced by the Coastal Athletic Association on Thursday. Head Coach Bobby Guntoro and assistant coach Gavrilo Blijden were honored as Coach and men's Diving Coach of the Year.

Carrico made a major impact in his first year with the UNCW program and was honored as the league's Rookie of the Year. The freshman captured the 400 IM with a time of 3:47.31 after breaking the conference record with a time of 3:46.64 in the prelims. He was also the CAA champion in the 500 free with a time of 4:21.66. Carrico placed second in the 200 breast (1:56.28) and was part of the Seahawks' second-place 800 free relay team. He is UNCW's fourth Rookie Swimmer of the Year in the past five seasons.

Badrian was honored as the Most Outstanding Diver at the CAA Championship for the second consecutive season. He took gold in the 3-meter competition with a score of 350.25 and placed second on the 1-meter board with a score of 313.50. The sophomore competed at the NCAA Zone meet, where he finished 33rd on both boards. During the regular season, he swept both boards at the Patriot Invitational, scoring 363.30 on the 3-meter and 315.65 on the 1-meter. It's the fifth year in a row that the CAA Diver of the Year has come from UNCW.

UNCW Head Coach Bobby Guntoro was selected as the Men's Swimming Coach of the Year for the third straight season after guiding UNCW to its third consecutive conference title. The Seahawks scored 885.5 points to win the event by a 132-point margin.

Guntoro also received CAA Women's Swimming Coach of the Year honors for the second straight season after guiding UNCW to back-to-back conference titles for the first time since 1999. The Seahawks accumulated 1,409 points in the competition.

UNCW diving coach Gavrilo Blijden was chosen as the Diving Coach of the Year for the first time. Along with the performance by Badrian, UNCW's Nic Newis was the CAA champion on the 1-meter board and finished second on the 3-meter board.
