Abigail Wilkov, a senior from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, has been awarded the Elite 90 Award for the Division III Women’s Swimming and Diving Championships.
The Elite 90 award is given each year to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative grade-point average who competes at the respective NCAA Championships in the sport. To be eligible, students must have been a member of their team for at least two years and be an active participant at the championship competition. Ties are broken by number of credits.
Wilkov majors in neuroscience and holds a 4.0 GPA. She is the first-ever member of the Case Western Reserve women’s team to receive this award and the second-ever member in aquatics history, joining men’s swimmer Drew Hamilton, who won the award in 2018.
Case Western has now won this award on 12 different occasions, and seven of those awards have been given in just the past three years.
Wilkov is the most decorated diver to ever compete at Case Western. Over the course of her career, she has earned seven All-America honors, including two at this year’s NCAA Championships. She opened these NCAAs with a 2nd place finish in the 1-meter diving event, which was the highest finish by a Spartan, swimmer or diver, in 18 years. She went on to place 2nd in the 3-meter diving event as well. Prior to this year, Wilkov’s highest-ever finish was 6th, which she earned in the 3-meter event at the 2024 championships.
Additionally, this year, Wilkov became the first diver from Case Western to ever win an NCAA Regional meet, securing the 1-meter victory this February. She also holds the school records for both the 1-meter (509.25) and 3-meter (552.70) boards.
