Wave Diving Scores Well at FCIACs

By Rebecca Liu

The Blue Wave Diving team competed in the FCIACs on Friday, 11/3 at Westhill. After months of practices and 5 AM workouts, they stepped up to score major points with the judges.
Junior Caroline Ashcraft placed 4th overall, senior Katie Witschi placed 15th, along with sophomore Olivia Piazza placing 16th. It was Katie Witschi’s first championship meet and she certainly rose to the occasion. Freshman diver Elizabeth Fitzpatrick was unable to compete in FCIACs for Darien as she was at an Olympic training camp in Colorado for the week.
Witschi comments, “I’m really proud of all the divers, everyone did so well all season. It was my last time diving in high school and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
Congratulations to the Blue Wave divers. Their next meet will be State Championships in Hamden, CT on Wednesday 11/9. Wish these divers good luck!
