Trojan Diving Invitational Starts Friday
November 12, 2015 | Men's Swimming & Diving
USC, featuring senior men's divers and 2015 NCAA Championships participants Collin Pollard and Deon Reid as well as senior women's diver and fellow NCAA veteran Sam Adams, will host the six-team Trojan Diving Invitational, Friday through Sunday (Nov. 13-15), at the Uytengsu Aquatics Center.
Divers from USC, UCLA, Azusa Pacific, San Jose State, Michigan (coached by former Trojan All-American Michael Hilden) and Cal Baptist will compete on all three specialties. Results will be available at here.
Action Friday begins with men's 1-meter and women's 3-meter prelims at 11 a.m. with finals starting at 1:15 p.m. Saturday features women's 1-meter and men's 3-meter with 11 a.m. prelims and 12:45 finals. Sunday's men's and women's platform begins at 11 a.m.
Pollard and Reid return as two of the Pac-12's top divers. Pollard is a nine-time career Pac-12 finalist who posted career bests at the 2015 Pac-12s with a third on platform and a fourth on 1-meter and tying a career-best with a fifth on 3-meter. He scored twice last year in his NCAA debut, taking 11th on both 1-meter and platform. Reid was a 2015 Pac-12 finalist on 3-meter and competed on 3-meter and platform at the NCAAs.
Adams is a six-time career Pac-12 finalist, including an eighth last year on platform. At her first NCAAs in 2015, she competed on 3-meter and platform.
Other Trojans competing are seniors Jacqui Suitt and Katherine Van Winkle and freshmen Madison Witt and Tabby Krebs.
