"I thought the divers did well this weekend," GS Diving Coach David Giambra said. "The opponents were tough, but the girls competed well. We did a lot of small things well, which we have struggled with this season. The challenge now is to be consistent at practice and continue to do the small things in practice that will make them take giant leaps in competition."
The Eagle swimmers are currently competing in the Florida Tech Panther Invitational in Melbourne. The divers will return to action as a part of the Eagles' dual meet at Florida International on December 14th in Miami, Fla.
