CHARLOTTE, N.C. - College of Charleston's Peter Gibbons (Fairfax, Va.) was named Diver of the Week while Davidson sophomore Drew Onken (Marietta, Ga.) has been selected as the CCSA Men's Swimmer of the Week for meets competed Jan. 10-Jan. 16, it was announced today by the League.

Gibbons finished second in both diving events this past weekend against UNC Wilmington.  In the 1-meter event Gibbons scored 217.57, and registered 202.35 in the 3-meter.  The weekly accolade is Gibbons fourth of the season.
