Hawai‘i Swim and Dive Ready For A Busy Week

Honolulu— It'll be a busy week for the University of Hawai'i swimming and diving team with multiple events taking place at Duke Kahanamoku Aquatic Center beginning on Wednesday.
 
UH will host the annual Wally Nakamoto Diving invite, and the event will span over three days from Wednesday through Friday. Swimming will host a tri-match on the women's side by hosting Drury and Wisconsin on Thursday, followed by a head-to-head meet against Minnesota for Senior Day on Saturday.
 
Diving- Wally Nakamoto Diving Invite
 
The invite will mark the first competition for UH diving since the Art Adamson Invitational in late November. Sophomore Max Burman was a premiere standout over a month ago, picking up a No. 2 finish in the one-meter dive. Burman will have the opportunity to build on his success from 2019 to 2020 with the comfort of his home facility at UH.
 
On the women's side, juniors Ivy Davis and Victoria Moretti will work on their growth under head coach Mike Brown. Davis qualified last season for the NCAA championships in the platform dive, while Moretti is still working her way up to the same status. As the calendar has flipped into January, the push to make nationals is within reach of several divers.
 
Competition on Wednesday will begin at noon HT and will feature the men's one-meter, followed by the women's three-meter. The competition will flip on Thursday with the men's three-meter and the women's one-meter, and diving will begin at 11 am HT. Everything concludes on Friday with both the men's and women's platform dive.
 
Swimming- Hawai'i, Drury, Wisconsin, and Minnesota.
 
Thursday will feature a tri-match on the women's side as UH faces off with Drury and Wisconsin, while the men will take-on Drury, beginning at 4 pm HT. The meet will have 13 events, with each athlete competing in three events.
 
Both sides will have a meet with Wisconsin on Saturday beginning at noon and will compete in a total of 16 events, with each athlete getting action in four.
 
Senior Phoebe Hines returns to action and currently comes in at No. 4 nationally in the 1650 free, while the men's relay teams will continue to build on their reputation as one of the top squads in the country. Entering this week, the men rank No. 24 in the 400 free relay and No. 25 in the 200 free relay. But the top-ranking event for the men's relay team is the 200 medley relay where the 'Bows come in at No. 15 in the country.
