Schultz Claims Fifth Weekly Honor This Season
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Following her record-breaking performance at the Tennessee Diving Invitational last week, freshman diver Brooke Schultz was named the SEC Diver of the Week Tuesday by the conference office.
It is Schultz’s fifth SEC weekly honor this season, as the Fayetteville native broke her own school record on the three-meter for the third time this season, scoring a 383.40 to capture the 3m crown at the invite. It was her fifth school record this season, as she has broken the 1m mark two times.
“We are excited that Brooke got the new year off to a great start,” said head coach Neil Harper. “She performed very well at the Tennessee Diving Invite and is setting herself up for a great championship season.”
On the 1m, Schultz finished second with a score of 325.70, leading all Southeastern Conference divers.
Of her eight 3m six-dive performances this season, Schultz has yet to finish outside of the top two, recording seven first-place finishes. Of her 16 six-dive efforts this season, Schultz has 13 first-place showings, having never finished outside the top three.
At the 2017 USA Winter Diving National Championships in December, Schultz won the three-meter title with a 15-dive score of 912.25.
