The Utes close 2024-2025 season
FEDERAL WAY, Wash. – Holly Waxman and Kathryn Grant represented the University of Utah swim and dive program in the final day of the women's NCAA Championship, finishing off the season on the platform on Saturday afternoon at the Weyerhaeuser King County Aquatic Center in Federal Way, Wash.
"I really just want to say thank you to Holly," said head dive coach Richard Marschner. "She closed out her career here and without a doubt, she is the greatest swimmer or diver to come through the women's program. It has been a joy to coach her every day and see her develop as a diver and as a great human being. She embodies everything that is right with college athletics and she has forever impacted this program in a positive way."
Power on the Tower
"The program is in good hands as Kat represents the school and team every bit as well as Holly. I'm very thankful for this team and the leadership shown by Holly and Kat, and am lucky to have been able to share this experience with them," said Marschner.
Looking Ahead
Elias Petersen is the lone soldier representing the University of Utah at the men's NCAA Swim and Dive Championship in Federal Way, Wash. at the Weyerhaeuser King County Aquatic Center, where he will be competing in both springboard events, beginning on March 27th.
