In the sport of diving, competitors’ bodies are pushed to the limit, as they attempt to time their dive correctly and earn a high score.
For Idaho freshman Janelle Lucas, she has accepted the challenge and earned several accolades as a diving performer.
Lucas won the Western Athletic Conference title in the 10-meter platform with a score of 278.20. Lucas earned her collegiate career-best score of 284.20 in the preliminary rounds to qualify in platform finals.
Lucas said she has soaked up her success after winning the event in February.
“With time, I have acknowledged it more,” Lucas said.
