Swimming World Magazine named the University of Texas' Travis Feldhaus as its Sports Information Director of the Year Award.  It is the second year that the magazine has awarded the honor.  Last year Feldhaus was named honorable mention. 

The award was based on how quickly SIDs worked with the magazine on requests for information, images and interviews as well as how they did promoting their own programs.

Swimming World highlighted Feldhaus' coverage of the NCAA runner-up Texas men's team and also the Texas women's recruiting class.
