HONOLULU – University of Hawai'i Rainbow Warrior diver Amund Gismervik was named the men's Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Diver of the Year for 2015 at the close of another spectacular season. It is Gismervik's second-straight year receiving the conference honor.

The junior from Stavanger, Norway swept all three diving events at the 2015 MPSF Championships (Feb. 18-21) in Pasadena, Calif. Gismervik recorded NCAA Automatic qualifying results with final scores of 367.25 on one-meter, 377.10 on three-meter, and 412.50 on platform and single-handedly netted 60 points towards the 'Bows' third-place finish.

Last week, Gismervik was the only Rainbow Warrior competing at the NCAA Swimming & Diving Championships in Iowa City, Iowa. He finished 12^th of 43 of the country's best divers with a score of 367.90, giving UH five points at the meet.

Gismervik holds UH's program records in both the platform and one-meter. He broke Magnus Frick's previous record of 413.60 after a breakthrough performance at the Arena Invitational earlier this season (Nov. 21) with a score of 440.30 and set the record for the platform at the 2014 MPSF Championships with a score of 446.10.
