ATLANTA – Days after setting his fourth Southern Athletic Association record, Millsaps men's swimming and diving student-athlete Bryan Sullivan was named the SAA Men's Swimmer of the Week, the conference coaches voting was revealed on Wednesday.

Sullivan became the first swimmer in the program's three seasons of existence to earn the recognition for the second time in a single season, following a banner weekend at the Hendrix Invitational.

The Neuroscience major set the SAA record in the 100-yard individual medley with a sensational time of 50.48 seconds. The time was the sixth fastest across all collegiate levels midway through the 2021-22 campaign.

He also set school records in the 50- and 100-yard breaststroke with times of 27.95 and 58.55, respectively in the same swim.

Sullivan also swam an open 50-yard freestyle (20.55), and a pair of relays (20.10 split in the 200 free; 21.21 butterfly in the 200 medley).

A product of Jackson Prep, Sullivan has now set SAA records in the 50 free, 100 fly, 100 back and the 100 IM. He currently holds nine Millsaps individual top marks and has teamed up on two record-setting relays.

The Majors will return from the Holiday Break and begin the winter portion of their schedule on Saturday, Jan. 8. Millsaps will challenge Centenary College in Shreveport, La., to a dual meet, beginning at 1 p.m.
