Trinity's National Diving Champion Emerick Elected to Academic All-District Team

San Antonio – Trinity University Tigers NCAA national women’s diving champion Hayley Emerick has been elected to the ESPN The Magazine Academic District 6 At-Large College Division First Team.

Emerick, from Portland, Texas (Gregory-Portland), is now eligible for selection to the Academic All-America Team, to be announced June 10. Voting is conducted nationwide by members of the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA).

A rising senior, Emerick is a business administration/marketing major with a 3.66 grade point average.

Emerick captured the NCAA Division III Women’s 3-meter Diving Championship last March in Minneapolis. Her feat followed a national title by teammate Lindsay Martin of Longview, Texas, a recent graduate who won the 1-meter board.

Earlier, Emerick was named the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Female Diver of the Meet, for the third year in a row.

The Tiger men’s and women’s divers are led by eighth-year head coach Stan Randall, selected as the NCAA Division III Women’s Diving Coach of the Meet.
