LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – Following a record-setting performance against Case Western Reserve, Gannon men's swimmer Kuba Loboda (Lublin, Poland/) has been named the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Men's Swimming Athlete of the Week, the conference announced Tuesday.

Loboda delivered an impressive performance in Gannon's 166.5-121.5 victory over Case Western Reserve on Saturday at the Carneval Athletic Pavilion Pool, collecting three first-place finishes while establishing a school record and contributing to multiple pool-record performances.
Highlighting his afternoon, Loboda established a Gannon school record and Carneval Athletic Pavilion Pool record in the 100-yard breaststroke, touching first in 55.21 seconds.

He opened the race with a 25.49 split through the first 50 yards, which currently ranks first in the PSAC and 10th in NCAA Division II in the 50-yard breaststroke for the 2026–27 season, according to Swimcloud.

Loboda also captured first place in the 100-yard butterfly with an NCAA Division II B-cut time of 48.47.

He opened the meet as a member of Gannon's pool-record-setting 200-yard medley relay, swimming the breaststroke leg alongside Patrick Biasio (Muggiò, Italy/Liceo Majorana), Kaidan Helmeczi (Mount Wolf, PA/Northeastern Senior High School) and Nickolas Ambrosiani (Seward, Alaska/Seward) as the Golden Knights finished first in 1:30.60.

Loboda's efforts helped the Golden Knights secure a 45-point dual-meet victory over Case Western Reserve, continuing Gannon's strong start to the 2026–27 season.

Gannon returns to competition November 19–21 at the Youngstown State Invitational in Youngstown, Ohio.
