COLUMBUS, Ohio Ohio State University junior diver Chelsea Davis has been named the Big Ten Conference Diver of the Week for her efforts in Ohio State’s dual meet against Northwestern last week. This is the second weekly honor for Davis this season, the third of her career and the sixth award for an Ohio State diver in 2007-08.
Davis, a biology major from Columbus and Worthington-Kilbourne High School, swept the diving events and set a new pool record in a tough conference matchup against Northwestern on Saturday. The junior’s one-meter score of 318.53 now ranks first all-time at the Norris Aquatic Center and also qualified her for the NCAA Zone diving meet. Her 327.45 total off the three-meter also qualifies Davis for the national meet.
Ohio State divers, under the direction of coach Vince Panzano, have not only won seven Big Ten weekly awards this season, but they are also unbeaten in dual meets as the women’s team has gone 8-0 and the men’s team has gone 6-0 for a combined 28-0 individual record on the one- and three-meter boards.
