Lake Forest College's Heath Ogawa was named Midwest Conference Performer of the Week on Tuesday after winning both diving events in his collegiate debut against Carthage College on Friday.
Ogawa, a freshman, came within 9.5 points of a 35-year-old team record in 1-meter diving with his score of 261.50. He won the event by nearly 39 points and his 268.90 points in the 3-meter competition were more than 98 points better than the runner-up from Carthage.
Ogawa now ranks third in program history in both events behind Forester Athletic Hall of Famer Guy Stehley '80 and Matt Perry '13.
MWC Performers of the Week are selected by the league's director of media and information.
