Week 11 - January 20, 2025
NE10 Swimmer of the Week
Gigi Morossi, Pace
Sophomore I Milan, Italy
Morossi delivered a dominant all-around performance to help Pace roll past Felician at home. She swept the backstroke races with top-three NE10 times and led off both of Pace’s A-relays, which also earned first-place finishes. Her continued consistency in individual and relay competition remains a driving force for the Blue and Gold. Most notably Morossi swam an NCAA B-cut time in the 200 Back and currently leads the conference (2:01.33).
NE10 Diver of the Week
Caroline Ranno, Pace
Sophomore I Mahwah, N.J.
Ranno wins Diver of the Week for the league-best fifth time this season. Ranno swept all three segments of the 1-Meter board on Saturday, tallying a season-best combined score of 397.13. Her consistency and execution across two sessions earned her top honors in both diving events while contributing 18 team points to the Blue and Gold’s dominant dual meet win against Felician.
NE10 Rookie of the Week
Anna Forlani, Bridgeport
Freshman I Ferrara, Italy
Forlani made her collegiate debut last week and jumped right into the Northeast 10 leaders. The Italian swam in both Bridgeport meets (1-1) and picked up race wins in both the 200 IM and 200 Fly. Her fly time checks in at fourth in the conference while she ranks eighth in the 200 IM.
