Abbott selected as SCIAC Diver of the Week

ORANGE, Calif. – Sophomore McKenzie Abbott was named the SCIAC Diver of the Week after sweeping the diving events at La Verne on Saturday. She also posted NCAA qualifying marks on both boards.

Abbott posted the top score on the 1-meter board with a season-best score of 261.00, which topped her previous NCAA regional qualifying score. On the 3-meter board, she scored a 270.15 to qualify for the NCAA Regionals and take another first-place finish.

Her 261.00 is the fourth-best six-dive score in the SCIAC this year on the 1-meter board. She ranks fifth with a 270.15 in the 3-meter.

The Panthers are back at Allred Pool on Saturday to take on Cal Lutheran in another SCIAC dual.
