St. Peter, Minn. – Gustavus Adolphus freshman swimmer Bennet Woltjer (Willmar, Minn.) will represent the Gustavus men’s swimming and diving team at the NCAA Division III Diving Regional held at the Venema Aquatic Center on the campus of Calvin College on Friday, March 1 and Saturday, March 2. Woltjer qualified for the meet after finishing third with a score of 430.05 on the one-meter at the MIAC Championships. He was the first Gustie diver to take home All-Conference honors since Charlie Kimball won both the one and three-meter in 2003.
Calvin College is set to host the two-day event that will include divers from around the central region states. Action will begin on Friday at 5 p.m. (EST) and will continue on Saturday at noon. Men’s and women’s divers will be seeking to qualify for the upcoming NCAA III Championships on both the one and three-meter diving boards. Admission to spectators will be free for the weekend. The winners of each (one and three-meter) diving competition will gain automatic berths to the NCAA III Championships. A further number of at-large berths will also be available.
