THIS WEEK
Hannah Caron of the University of Utah swimming team was selected to compete at the NCAA Women's Swimming Championships based on her performance at the Mountain West Conference Championships. The University of Texas will host the national championships at the Jamail Texas Swimming Center on Thursday through Saturday.
Caron will be going head-to-head among the fastest swimmers in the country in the 100 fly, 200 fly, and 200 IM events. The 200 IM will be held on Thursday morning while the 100 and 200 fly events will take place Friday and Saturday afternoons, respectively.
LAST WEEK
The Utah divers finished up their season by heading to Minneapolis for the NCAA Zone E Diving Regional Championships. Nelson Foo, Brandon Stoppelmoor, Ellis Walters, and Kwan Ling Yu represented Utah for the second year in a row.
Unlike last year where they didn't qualify for the final rounds, three Utah divers qualified for finals in six dives total, posting scores that largely surpassed last years' performances.
Foo went to the finals round of both the platform and the 3-meter dive. Overall, he finished in 16th place in the 3-meter (611) and 10th in the platform (593.70).
On the 1-meter dive, Stoppelmoor led the Ute men scoring 513.15 overall for 18th place. He also earned 17th place overall in the 3-meter (607.65).
Walters placed overall 16th in the 3-meter dive (532.30) and 15th overall in the 1-meter (504.15).
QUOTING HEAD COACH Greg Winslow
"I'm really proud of our divers. They've had a really good look at what the competition in the Pac-10 will be like. They are going in the right direction. Richard [Marschner] gets to work with them for a full year now, which will be good since he didn't start here until last summer. It will be fun to see their progress next year.
"It's really exciting. This is the fastest meet in the world, even faster than the Olympics. It's deeper. She's done a good job of preparing these last couple weeks. Now, she is going to go have fun.
"There have only been about five women in Utah's history that have ever gone to the NCAA championships so Hannah is really excited.
"Her goal is to go out there and swim as fast as she can and come back even better."
