Athletics Hall of Fame
Elliot Seguin made a lasting impact in the pool as one of four individual national champions in the long history of the Union men's swimming & diving program during his time on campus from 2001-05.
Â
Seguin finished his decorated Union career with 12 All-America laurels to his credit, with six coming as an individual and six as part of relay teams. He shined brightest in his senior season, earning All-America honors in all three freestyle sprint events, including the program's fourth national title in the 100 free, which he won by over four-tenths of a second. That season also saw Seguin capture state titles in the 100 and 200 free, set a new school record in the 100 free (45.17) that still stands today, and earn Union's Student-Athlete of the Year award.
Â
As a sophomore, Seguin earned the Sophomore Athletic Prize after picking up a pair of individual All-America laurels, finishing third in the 50 free and fourth in the 100 free, to go with four All-America relay honors. His pair of individual honors made him only the fifth Union swimmer to earn multiple All-America first-team awards in the same season, and also helped Union finish 14th at the national championships with 91 points, the team's highest finish since 1998.
