Los Angeles, Calif.----- For the second day in a row, San Jose State University senior Cari Reiswig qualified for a final at the UCLA Bruin Diving Invitational.
From a field of 51 of the top divers from Mountain West, Pac-12, Big West and Big Sky schools, Reiswig was the #12 qualifier in the 3-meter event with a 274.55 score.
In the six-dive final, Reiswig posted a 290.45 score and moved up one place to finish 11th with a 565.00 total.

The Spartans conclude three days of competition at the UCLA Bruin Diving Invitational with Reiswig, Fonseca, Sondeno and Eri Tamada competing in the platform event.
