Diving trials update
Troy Dumais, a two-time Olympian and a graduate of Buena High School in Ventura, leads the U.S. Olympic Diving Trials in the 3-meter event after the first day of competition.
The Trials continue today at the Indiana University Natatorium on the Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis campus. They conclude Sunday.
Dumais scored 502.75 points on Thursday night. He leads Chris Colwill of Athens, Ga., who has 477.50 points. Dumais started 30 points ahead of the other divers at Trials because he finished fourth at the 2008 World Cup.
Justin Wilcock of Indianapolis, a 2004 Olympian, is third at 449.15 points.
Only the winner of each event will be nominated to the U.S. Olympic Team. The second individual will be decided at a team selection camp in Knoxville, Tenn., from July 2-6. The top six finishers at the Trials will be invited to the camp.
