TOWSON, Md. – Senior
diver Caroline Baker has been named

by CAA officials.
Baker helped the
Tigers finish second in the Terp Cup Nov. 17-19 and finished second in the
one-meter dive with a score of 291.95. Her score of 276.55 earned her a third
place finish in the three-meter event.
“She dove very well and was very consistent,” Diving Coach Maureen Mead said. “We don't just practice
diving, we practice competing like it's in a competition. We lay it on the
line. I challenge them every day. Our divers feel the same in practice as they
do in the meet and that is important for success.”

conference this season. She received the same the honor for the first time this
season Nov. 8.
