LA MIRADA --- Four members of the Biola swimming & diving program earned Pacific Collegiate Swimming and Diving Conference weekly honors following the Eagles' two-day dual meet against Simon Fraser.

Riley Kiernan was named Female Diver of the Week, Zachary Ponder earned Male Athlete of the Week, Jarrod Coy was selected as Male Freshman Athlete of the Week and Thomas Mackey received Male Diver of the Week honors.


Kiernan opened her collegiate career with a sweep of the diving events on the first day of competition. The freshman won the 1-meter with a score of 201.50 before following with a team-best 217.13 points on the 3-meter board.


Ponder put together a strong all-around weekend for the Eagles, collecting three individual podium finishes. The junior placed second in the 500 free in 4:50.74 and second in the 200 free in 1:43.82.


He also placed second in the 200 IM with a time of 1:59.80 and finished fourth in the 100 IM with a personal-best time of 55.21. Ponder closed out the opening day by anchoring Biola's 400 free relay.


Coy made an immediate impact in his collegiate debut, finishing inside the top four in all four of his individual events. The freshman captured first in the 50 fly in 23.53 and placed third in the 100 fly in 51.89.


Coy also finished third in the 500 free with a time of 4:53.72 and fourth in the 100 free in 48.10.


Mackey rounded out Biola's honorees after competing on both boards during the opening day of the dual. The sophomore recorded 106.16 points on the 1-meter and 119.10 points on the 3-meter as Biola's lone male diver of the weekend.


The four awards came after Biola opened its 2026-27 season with a two-day home dual against Simon Fraser at Lansing Pool.
