COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (March 15, 2021) – Oklahoma Christian swimmers Brandon Heredia, Elijah Tung and Nathan Bruner combined to earn four All-Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference individual honors this season.

Two OC relay teams – the 200 freestyle relay and the 400 medley relay – also were recognized on the All-RMAC lists.

Heredia, a sophomore from Maryville, Mo., earned two individual honors, making the first-team list in the 200-yard freestyle and the second-team list in the 50 freestyle, based on his performances in last month's RMAC meet in Grand Junction, Colo.

He was the RMAC's 200 freestyle runner-up with an altitude-adjusted time of 1:37.98, which earned him alternate status in that event for the NCAA Division II Championships, which wrapped up last week in Birmingham, Ala. In the 50 freestyle at the RMAC meet, he took fourth in 20.57 seconds.

Tung, a sophomore from Columbia, S.C., finished fourth in the 100 butterfly in 49.19 seconds, earning him second-team All-RMAC honors. Bruner, a senior from Cibolo, Texas, also made the second-team list in the 200 freestyle with a fourth-place finish with a time of 1:38.71.

OC's 200 freestyle relay team of Heredia, sophomore Nathan Braun of Sycamore, Ill., sophomore Jacob Nixon of Livermore, Calif., and Bruner made the All-RMAC first-team list after finishing second in the league meet in a school-record time of 1:22.02.

The 400 medley relay team of senior Noah Woollweever of Beckley, W.Va., senior Zac Hawes of Houston, Braun and Nixon was on the All-RMAC second-team list following a third-place finish with a time of 3:20.84.

Heredia has collected seven All-RMAC awards in his two seasons of competition for the Eagles, while Hawes has nine, Woollweever has six, Braun has six, Tung has three and Nixon has three.
