Senior swimming standout Alex Anderson has been named as the UMW Wagner Wealth Management Athlete of the Month for February.
Anderson led the UMW men's swimming team to a top-25 ranking and to its 15th consecutive Capital Athletic Conference Championship, and was just the second swimmer in CAC history to gain CAC Swimmer of the Year three times after the February championships.
Anderson won the CAC Championships in every event in which he swam, finishing first in the 50 freestyle, 200 butterfly, and 400 IM. In addition, all four relays in which he swam won conference titles.
He will advance to the NCAA Championships next week, hoping to repeat as national champion in the 400 IM and 200 fly.
