INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - Catholic University men's swimming sophomore Nathan Ober earned All-America honors in the 100-yard breaststroke at the NCAA Division III Swimming and Diving Championships Friday.
Ober, who finished 14th with a time of 54.79 seconds, is the first Cardinal to earn All-America honors and score points at the national championships since 1996. That year, John Cooper finished 15th and earned four points in the 200-yard backstroke.
In February, Ober set a conference and championship meet record in the 100 breast at the Landmark Conference championships with a time of 54.59 seconds to win gold.
Catholic has had five swimmers earn a total of 10 All-America honors in men's swimming, including Ober, Cooper, Brent Raue (1995), Kevin Saatman (1991) and Keats Baugher (1965, 1966, 1967).
