LAWRENCE, Kan. – Kansas sophomore diver Shiyun Lai has been named Big 12 Women's Diver of the Week for the fourth time in her two-year career, the conference announced on Wednesday.
Lai, who earned three Big 12 weekly honors during the 2023-24 season, secured her first accolade of the 2024-25 season following a standout performance against Illinois on Oct. 10. She dominated the competition in Kansas' dual meet, sweeping both the one-meter (302.93) and three-meter (327.83) diving events.
