Olympic Diving Trials 10m Synchro Finals Thursday

Trials. It all comes down to a few dives.

The Men’s and Women’s 10m Synchronized Platform dives head into Finals Thursday night at the 2012 US Diving Olympic Trials in Federal Way, WA, with the top pair from each division earning a place on the US Olympic Diving team.

2008 Olympic swimmer David Boudia and his partner, Nick McCrory, head into the finals with a solid first place position, based on scores from Sunday’s semi-finals. The diving duo made up of teens Toby Stanley and Steele Johnson were in second place, followed by the Steele Johnson/Dash Enos duo.

Johnson, who we’ve been following, had a rough day Tuesday in the 10m Platform prelims but finished the event with a solid 407C dive.

“I’m just going to go have fun,” he said.

And he will.
