Maggie Rezac (Omaha, NE/Marian) was the first to achieve All-American (top eight) status with a sixth-place finish in the 1-meter diving competition on Thursday. She posted a score of 362.45. Kendall Swett (Akron, OH/Hawken) placed 13th in the event with 319.85.

Swett turned in the better performance of the two off the 3-meter board on Friday and Saturday. Her score of 399.30 was good for fifth place while Rezac finished 13th with 363.40.
