Freshman Lucy Slowe (Millis/Millis HS) captured the Women's Rookie of the Week award, classmate Mark Zoda (Nashua, N.H./Bishop Guertin HS) was named to the NE10 Weekly Honor Roll and the Falcons swept the two Relay Team of the Week awards.

In dual meets against Babson and Pace, Kaduboski was undefeated in six individual events while posting the conference's two fastest times of the week in the 100 yard backstroke (1:00.82, 1:00.89), the 200 back (2:10.44, 2:11.81) and the 200 individual medley (2:13.26, 2:14.01). She also helped Bentley capture the 400 medley relay at Pace in 4:08.61, and was part of a 200 free relay that was third against Babson (1:44.44).

Zoda finished first against both Babson and Pace in the 100 free (48.74, 48.49) and the 200 free (1:47.73, 1:45.94), and also helped the Falcons win a relay event in each.
