You Know It—Colwill Is In


Chris Colwll has made the U.S. Olympic Diving Team 3-meter springboard and, with Jevon Tarantino, in 3-meter synchro.

You know it, I know it, his parents, know it and so does his coach, Dan Laak. More importantly, the members of the selection committee who will meet later this afternoon already know it. Colwill dominated 3-meter individual at this week’s Selection Camp at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, and he teamed up with Tarantino to do the same thing in synchro.

Besides that, Colwill owns all the tiebreakers the selection committee will be looking at to name the 12 remaining members of the men’s and women’s U.S. dive team.

Still, we’ll have to wait until Monday’s USA Diving news conference to get the official roster headed to Beijing. Maybe then, Colwill will cut loose and do a little celebrating. Until then, he’s playig it cool. “You never know until it’s official,” Colwill said after his last dive of the camp Saturday.

But c’mon. You know it, I know it and so does anyone who has seen him dive in the last year.

Chris Colwill is going to Beijing.
