ATLANTA – Nine divers will represent Tennessee at the NCAA Zone B Championships this weekend at McAuley Aquatic Center, as the divers from around the region will compete to qualify for the NCAA Championships later this month.

The zone championships begin Sunday, March 6, and run through Wednesday, March 9. See below for the daily schedule.

Grace Cable, Maddie Reese and Elle Renner qualified for all three events, while Kara Holt (platform) and Emily Ann Wolfson (1-meter) will compete in one event. On the men's side, Bryden Hattie, Jacob Reasor and Dillon Richardson qualified in every event, and Matthew Wade will compete on both springboards.

In total, 99 divers will compete throughout the week. Ten spots at NCAAs are up for grabs for the women on 1-meter and 3-meter, while nine spots are available on platform. The men have eight open slots at NCAAs on 1-meter, 11 available spots on 3-meter and seven on platform. If a diver qualifies in one event, they can compete at NCAAs if they finish in the top 12 in other eligible events.

The number of open positions for each zone is dependent on how well divers from a particular zone perform at NCAAs the season prior, so results from the 2021 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships were used to determine the number of positions open for Zone B on each board this season.

Hattie, Holt and Wade all advanced from zones to the NCAA Championships last season.
