Cornell Johnston from men's basketball and Kaylee Morris from women's swimming have been named the Back To Health EIU student-athletes of the week.

Johnston had back-to-back double-doubles for the Panthers as they beat Eastern Kentucky and Morehead State in weekend Ohio Valley Conference action.  In a game televised on CBS Sports Net, Johnston had 13 points and ten assists against Eastern Kentucky.  On Saturday he scored 15 points to go with ten assists during an overtime win against Morehead State.  His 3-pointer with 41 seconds left in OT gave EIU the lead.

Morris was a part of three first place finishes as the EIU women's swimming team picked up wins over Western Illinois and Butler on senior night at Padovan Pool.  Morris swam the anchor leg on 200 medley relay and 200 free relay.  The first place finish in the free relay secured both wins for EIU.  Morris added an indvidual first place finish in the 100 free winning the event by more than two seconds.
