LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) – For the second time this season, UNLV men's swimming junior Adnan Beji was named the WAC Swimmer of the Week, the league office announced Wednesday.

Originally from Tunis, Tunisia, Beji posted top-5 finishes in the breaststroke events as the Rebels competed at the Texas Invitational against the host No. 13 Longhorns, No. 8 Stanford, No. 16 USC and No. 20 Wisconsin. He set a school record in the 200 breast (1:54.16), while placing fourth with an NCAA 'B' cut. Additionally, he notched a second-place finish in the 100 breast (53.37).
