Indiana signee Quinn Henninger secured a spot in the finals with a seventh-place finish and 747.15 points out of the semifinals.

He advanced to the semifinals after finishing seventh in the prelim round with a point total of 386.75. His performance was very consistent with all six dives over 58 points, including three efforts over 66 points.
Incoming freshman Carson Tyler finished 16th in the semifinals with a 12-dive score of 648.35. In his first Olympic Trial event, he hit five dives over 50 points and saved his best for last.
