The Minnesota Gophers are sending nine women to the NCAA Championships this week. The events begin Wednesday and are being hosted by Georgia Tech in Atlanta, Georgia.
The main even for the Gophers will be 5th year senior Sarah Bacon trying to win her 5th and 6th individual NCAA Championships. She won both the 1 and 3 meter spring board events at the NCAA Championships in 2021, and had previously won the 1 meter two prior times. Bacon recorded the high score in both events in the Zone D regionals in Madison two weeks ago.
