Ashley Keller (Lockport, N.Y.) finished 11th and Katelyn Haley (Canandaigua, N.Y.) was 12th in women's 3-meter springboard diving Saturday at the NCAA Division III Swimming & Diving championship meet held last week in Indianapolis, Ind.
The two Fredonia State seniors each earned Honorable Mention All-American status – the fourth time for Keller and the first for Haley, who was competing in her first NCAA championship meet. Keller scored 433.15 points and Haley 431.8 for an 11-dive program.
They were joined in Indianapolis by freshman Arron Carlson (LeRoy, N.Y.), who competed in men's springboard diving and earned Honorable Mention All-American status in the 1-meter competition. The divers were also accompanied by diving coach John Crawford, diving assistant Christian Torres, and Blue Devil swimming and diving head coach Arthur Wang.
Saturday's competition on the campus of Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis brought an end to the Blue Devils' 2013-14 swimming & diving season, which began last October, as well as the final collegiate meet for the two seniors.
It was the ninth straight year Fredonia State had at least one diver, or either gender, at the national meet, and the ninth straight year with an Honorable Mention All-American or better.
