AUBURN, Ala. – All seven Auburn divers on the women's and men's side qualified for the Zone B Championships earlier in the season and each will embark on their quest for a trip to the NCAA Championships this weekend in Knoxville, Tennessee.
Conner Pruitt, Walker Creedon, Whit Andrus, Hunter Kebler, Ashlynn Sullivan, Abigail Farrar and Gretchen Wensuc take center stage March 5-8 at Zones.
Head diving coach Jeff Shaffer's crew is coming off a solid performance at the SEC Championships.
Graduate Conner Pruitt made finals in both the 1-meter and 3-meter events, saving his best finish (4th) for the 3-meter. Meanwhile, Walker Creedon and Whit Andrus both earned a second list on the Tower on the final day of action in College Station. It was Andrus' first finals of his career and while he'd manage eighth, Creedon came through with another fourth-place effort for the Tigers.
Entering the weekend, Pruitt has the fourth-highest score this season on the 3-meter (413.35) and the third-highest on the 1-meter (376.90). Creedon, on the other hand, owns the fourth-highest total on the Platform (406.88).
