Maury’s freshmen showed up in a big way, Princess Anne’s senior with big accomplishments.
The top diver from the combined districts in each region will move on to their respective class regional championships beginning on the fifth of February.
Senior Olivia Francella has a bright future ahead of her. She’s one of the top students in her class at Princess Anne High School and she has the University of Pennsylvania waiting for her when she graduates. But, before Olivia moves on to the University of Pennsylvania, she has some unfinished business left in her accomplished high school diving career at the championship series. Olivia has one more shot to grab her ultimate goal – a three time state championship.
Owen Redfearn of Maury High school completed his freshman season with strong performances and has emerged as one of the best divers in the state of Virginia. After an impressive dive meet win on Friday night against Bayside, First Colonial, Kellam, Cox, Green Run, Kempsville, Landstown, Ocean Lakes, Salem (Virginia Beach), and Tallwood, freshman Owen put forth a solid performance en route to a great ace performance during the championship series. Though, he has only been diving for three years, Owen has become one of the top competitors in the state. Indigo Flynch of Landstown H.S. is expected to make a podium bid on the 1 meter springboard as well. These student-athletes have worked incredibly hard and are achieving their goals.
