COLUMBUS, Ohio - Indiana University redshirt junior Christina Loukas took to the diving board today at the 2008 World Cup Team Selection/Training Camp being held by USA Diving at the McCorkle Aquatics Pavilion in Columbus, Ohio.
Loukas, who is redshirting this season to focus on training for the 2008 Olympic Trials, competed in the 3-meter individual and 3-meter synchronized events on Monday. Competing with two dive lists, Loukas finished third in the list 1 competition with a score of 321.35. With list 2, Loukas was fifth, totaling 336.50 points.
Teaming up with Amanda Miller in the synchronized event, the duo finished fourth in the list 1 (276.60) and list 2 (279.60) sets.
Also participating in the selection/training camp is Hoosier alum Cassandra Cardinell. Cardinell will compete on the platform on Thursday, the final day of the camp.
It should be noted that the scores reflect only results from events occurring during the camp, and are not the only criteria used to select the actual team members. Other criteria which will factor into the selection of the World Cup team include past performances at international events, degree of difficulty in the dive list, as well as others. Team selection will be made on or before January 28.
