Thiago Sickert Repeats as SSC Swimmer of the Year
Nova Southeastern University swimmer Thiago Sickert repeats as 2016 All-Sunshine State Conference (SSC) Men’s Swimmer of the Year as announced by the league office on Thursday, March 17.
“Thiago has worked hard all season to prepare for these championships,” said head coach Hollie Bonewit-Cron. “Thiago’s goals and aspirations keep him focused in the pool throughout the season so that he can perform at such a high level at the end of the season.”
Sickert (Jr., Vila Velha, Brazil) was named SSC Championship Male Swimmer of the Meet after taking first in the 100-yard butterfly, 200-yard butterfly and 100-yard freestyle as well as second in the 50-yard freestyle. Sickert went undefeated during the regular season in the 200-fly on his way to winning the 2016 NCAA Division II National Championship title in that event. His second-place finish in the 100-free (42.98) at the championship also set a new overall SSC and school record.
