Coach RC Weston is exicted for the honors for Stevens and Beach. "I couldn't think of more deserving individuals for these honors. Nick and Becca have worked extremely hard this year to put themselves in a position to perform at a very high level at the end of the season. I want to congratulate the two of them and recognize the time and effort our diving coach Cassie Brown has made for this program to help us find the success we have had in such a short period of time. With an entire offseason ahead of them, Nick and Becca have plenty of room for growth and development as they continue to push themselves toward their goals and beyond."
