From Case Western Reserve University Athletics

Freshman Drew Hamilton (Cincinnati, Ohio/Turpin) broke his third and fourth individual school records in three days and was named University Athletic Association Rookie of the Year as the Case Western Reserve University men's swimming & diving team concluded competition at the 2015 UAA Championship at the Madeleine Jude Brown Aquatic Center.

The Spartans finished sixth as a team with 794 points. Host and No. 3 nationally ranked Emory University won the team title with 1,551 points, while No. 10 University of Chicago finished runner-up at 1,408. 

Hamilton swam a 15:54.06 in the 1,650-yard freestyle, placing fourth. His time broke the previous CWRU record of 15:58.91, which was set in 1999 by John Gellin.

For the weekend, Hamilton set school records in the 500 free (4:28.98), 400 individual medley (3:58.77), 1,650 free, 1,000 free and with the 800 free relay. The program's first-ever UAA Rookie of the Year won the 500 free and placed runner-up in the 400 IM. 

Joining in the record-breaking performances, freshman Oliver Hudgins (Chapel Hill, N.C./East Chapel Hill) set the first of his career with a 200 backstroke time of 1:51.28. The previous school record of 1:52.54 was set 15 years ago by Matthew Anderson.
