Utah diving showed dominance with eight podiums
MIAMI – The University of Utah diving program closed out its final split meet of the calendar year in dominating fashion on a windy day at the Doral Aquatic Center on Tuesday.
Elias Petersen won on both the 1-meter and 3-meter springboards to lead the men's side against FAU, while Callie Eaglestone and Kathryn Grant both logged a first-place finish to pace the women's team against FIU and Marshall. Utah tallied eight podium finishes across four finals.
"The divers battled through some really tough conditions today," head diving coach Richard Marschner said. "It's exceptionally windy here and diving outside presents a challenge, so we ended up having to change a lot of our dives, but the ones we competed did really, really well."
Petersen claimed his third 1-meter win of his senior season with a 307.05 list score. Alex Just finished in third place with a 276.95 – his best mark since the season opener – while Attila Bernatsky placed fifth with a 259.35. Petersen earned his second 3-meter win of the season with a 348.30, finishing just ahead of Bernatsky, who placed second with a personal-best 302.70. Tuesday marked the first time the sophomore eclipsed 300 points on the board.
Grant led the way for the Utah women on the 1-meter board and was one of five Utes to finish in the top six. Her 286.30 was enough to claim her second win on the event in as many meets, narrowly beating out Eaglestone's 279.05. Sarah Kauffman placed fourth with a 230.85, her best mark of the season, while the freshman duo of Cierra Cole and Annalise Shrader placed fifth and sixth, respectively, at 218.10 and 212.05.
On the 3-meter springboard, Eaglestone won with a 289.85 while Grant placed second with a 266.35. Shrader came in fourth with a 236.50.
"We took a lot of pride in what we were doing today and we saw some really good results," Marschner added. "I'm really happy with the resilience that we're building here, even if it was a little bit tough from an environment standpoint."
Looking Ahead
Utah diving will reconvene with the swim team on Monday, Dec. 22, when the Utes welcome Hawaii to Ute Natatorium to close out the 2025 portion of the schedule. The meet is set to begin at 11 a.m. MT.
