On day one, Aiacoboae competed in the women's 1-meter event and finished eighth to clinch a spot to the NCAA Championships in Atlanta from March 16-19.
"Today was a long day of diving, putting a lot of mental and physical effort to try to get that spot for NCAA's," said Aiacoboae. "My goal was to qualify in the top 11, so ending up in eighth was more then enough. I am really excited for these last two weeks of the season being they're the most important."
