Swimming & Diving. Lazeroff leads Auburn sweep on the platform
Scott Lazeroff scored a 75.90 on his final dive of the afternoon to top the 400-point mark as Auburn swept the platform event on the last day of the Auburn Fall Invitational. Lazeroff scored a 410.75 to win while Justin Youtsey was second (340.95) and Pete Turnham was third (319.45).
“I had a pretty decent 1- and 3-meter competition but I wasn’t really happy about it so I wanted to end with a bang,” Lazeroff said. “All day I visualized my dives and visualized what I had to do to get the score that I wanted, which was a 400. I was focused one dive at a time. I love twisters and I knew I could do it (final dive, a 3 ½ twister) well and I was confident in what I had to do.”
