BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION – Texas A&M divers Gabby Filzen, Jaxon Bowshire, Emilio Trevino and Matthew Aigner punched their tickets to the NCAA Swimming & Diving Championships in the platform dive on the final day of the NCAA Zone D Championships on Wednesday at the Student Recreation Natatorium.
Filzen, a sophomore from Schwenksville, Pa., followed up her strong performance at the SEC Championships by earning her first career trip to the NCAA Championships by placing sixth with a 10-dive total of 530.30 points. She finished strong with a score of 281.30 on her five dives in the final.
Bowshire, a sophomore from Adelaide, Australia, earned runner-up honors in the men's platform with a 12-dive score of 808.20, while Trevino was right behind in third with 772.20. Bowshire, last year's NCAA runner-up in the platform dive, finished strong with four-straight 70-plus point scores, including an 83.25 gem on third dive of the final. Trevino's finish gives him two events at the NCAA meet after qualifying earlier this week in the 3m dive. Aigner, a senior from Katy, Texas, earned the first NCAA trip of his career with an eighth-place effort with 679.40 points.
In other action, junior Chloe McKnight finished one place away from qualifying with a 12th-place effort and a score of 476.40 in the women's platform, while sophomore Charles Reuter took 14th with 586.15 points.
