South Dakota junior Haley Pederson and sophomore Hudson Wilkerson have been named Summit League divers of the week, the league announced Tuesday.

Wilkerson, earning male diver of the week honors for the first time this season, swept his way through both days of competitions at the MSU Moorhead Penta Duals in West Fargo, North Dakota, earning an NCAA Zone Qualifying Mark on the one-meter board in the process.

Pederson, honored for the second time this season as female diver of the week, posted a pair of runner-up finishes to go with a third-place and ninth-place effort over two days of competition.
