Nevada Wolf Pack star Krysta Palmer begins her quest for Rio on Saturday when the U.S. Olympic diving trials begins at the IU Natatorium in Indianapolis.
Palmer is one of 100 divers competing for a handful of spots on the U.S. Olympic diving team. She will compete in two events.
The Douglas High graduate will take part in the women's individual platform and synchronized platform dives. The synchronized platform prelims and semifinal rounds are Saturday. Palmer, who didn't even try the event until two months ago, is paired with Tarrin Gilliland, who is the youngest diver in the field at just 13 years old.
