Freshmen Tessa Dahl and Erin Miller were on their way to claiming the two top spots in the State 3 A diving competition. Through 10 of 11 rounds, the two 14-year-olds had a commanding lead ahead of the other 14 divers. On her final dive, Dahl was originally origi-nally supposed to perform a full-twisting one-and-a-half, but she changed her last dive to a full-twisting somersault, which she performed well and drew applause from the crowd anticipating her being the winner. But instead, the change was not on the proper pieces of paper and Dahl's final dive did not count. Miller, who was only four points being Dahl going into the last dive, performed her dive and took 1st place. But it was obvious after the competition Miller was trying to enjoy her victory but would rather it didn't come at her teammate's expense. "It was fun until the end. Tessa deserves to win," Miller said. But regardless of the events leading up to the awards. Miller and Park City High School's road to victory is amazing. Miller, one of only three divers from the high school, started diving four months ago, when she entered high school. The former gymnast said it was an easy transition from tumbling to diving. div-ing.

SCOTT SN& PARK RECORD Freshman Tessa Dahl had the title wrapped up until her final dive, when a technicality disqualified her 11th dive, giving her 2nd in the state. no male members. Every practice day, the divers don't get the luxury of swimming outside in the frigid winter temperatures like the swim team that trains in the Park City Racquet Club outdoor pool; instead, the divers drive to the University of Utah where there is a coach and diving board. The seven judges rated the divers' performance in five 'voluntary' dives that are comprised of one forward, back, reverse, inward and twist dives. The competitors then perform six optional dives from the same categories. The high and low score from each dive is dropped and then the remaining points are accumulated through 11 dives. As a team. Park City High School scored 27 points, 12 more than the closest competition. Carbon High School. Richfield and Uintah each finished with 10 points, Rowland Hall-St. Mark's and Cedar City nine and South Summit eight. In the individual scoring. Miller finished with 349.50 points and Dahl had 325.25. Kimberly Cox (Carbon) was the next closest individual with 288.60 points. Park City resident and Rowland Hall-St. Mark's student Rebecca Larsen finished in 5th place with 254.60 points. Miners take state, again Continued from B-1 Guenard and Seth Williams.
