(Chelsea Update would like to thank Bobby Lee for the information in this story.)
Chelsea’s Jake Burris, an Albion College junior, achieved regional qualifying scores in both the 1- and 3-meter diving events to help the Britons gain a 152-123 dual meet victory over Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association rival Hope College. Burris achieved scores of 284 in the 1-meter competition and 299 ½ on the 3-meter board to qualify for NCAA Division III Diving Regional Championship.
He was also named selected as the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association’s Male Diver of the Week.
The junior achieved the high score of the meet in both diving events.
Albion has two meets remaining in the first half of the 2017-2018 season. The Britons will travel to the University of Chicago this weekend for a three-day invitational and to Eastern Michigan University for a Dec. 1-2 event.
