KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — VFL and Tennessee assistant diving coach Colin Zeng qualified for the Olympic Diving Trials during Wednesday's USA Diving Winter National Championships at the Jones Aquatic Center in Knoxville.
Zeng was a three-time NCAA champion and two-time SEC Diver of the Year while on the Tennessee diving team, but only became a United States citizen last year, making this his first opportunity to qualify.
"It is very cool to be at a high level of competition," Zeng said.
Zeng joined the Tennessee coaching staff in August 2023 and will have the chance to compete at the Olympic Diving Trials in June 2024, which will also be held at the Jones Aquatic Center.
The Olympic Diving Trials will be held from June 16-23.
