ROCHESTER, N.Y. - Five RIT student-athletes received Liberty League weekly accolades, announced Monday. The team of senor Kirsten Auble and graduate student Julia Smolowitz earned Liberty League Women's Tennis Doubles Team of the Week and freshman Emily DiMarco earned her second Liberty League Women's Track & Field Rookie of the Week honor.

On the men's side, senior Drew Hutchison was named Liberty League Men's Lacrosse Defensive Performer of the Week, while freshman Ben Sheehan earned his third Liberty League Men's Track & Field Rookie of the Week honor.

DiMarco broke her own program record in the discus at the Geneseo Its Nice Out Invitational, last Monday. She won the event with a 42.23m/138' 6" toss, besting the mark she established two days earlier at the Rochester Spring Classic by nearly two feet. DiMarco currently ranks first in both the Liberty League and the Atlantic Region and 17th in Division III.

Auble and Smolowitz went 2-0 in Liberty League play last week with an 8-0 win over William Smith and an 8-4 win over St. Lawrence.

Sheehan won the long jump at the Brockport Invitational, Friday, with a 7.02m/23' 0.5" performance. Already ranked first in the Atlantic Region and the Liberty League (and 16th nationally) with a previous performance, his latest effort would rank in the top-five of the region and top-three of the Liberty League.

Hutchsion recorded a 2-0 record, a 4.67 goals against average and a .774 save percentage to help No. 3 RIT to a pair of wins last week. He made 14 saves and allowed four goals in the Tigers 19-6 win at Ithaca, Wednesday. He made 10 saves in three quarters of action in the Tigers 16-6 win against Clarkson, Saturday.
