CHICAGO – Led by a dominant performance from
Harrison Nolan, the men had one-two finishes in both individual events.
Kerry-Leigh Morrison led the women with top-four finishes in both events, as the UIC Diving program hosted its 20th Diving Invitational.
42 divers from six different schools competed at this year's invitational. The competition was the final event before the Missouri Valley Conference Championships for the Flames.
COMMENT FROM ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH/HEAD DIVING COACH SUSAN BROMBERG
"Overall the divers had a great meet! Everyone dove very well and it was great for them to see how their training this past month is coming together. There were 5 life-time best scores from Ava on both boards, Morgan on both boards and Christian in the 3 meter event. Our focus now is on the details as we get ready for the conference championships."
