Head Diving Coach Bob Gunter Named Big 12 Diving Coach of the Year

HOUSTON – Houston Swimming & Diving Head Diving Coach Bob Gunter was announced as the Big 12 Diving Coach of the Year, the conference announced Wednesday.

This award marks the seventh conference Diving Coach of the Year after he previously took home the title six times in Houston's stint in the American Athletic Conference.

Gunter has spent the last 11 seasons coaching the Cougars, sending three student-athletes to NCAAs in the last three seasons to compete in a combined 10 events.

This season, Gunter led his team to the first individual Big 12 Conference win in program history after freshman Maisy Woloszyn took home the win in the 3-meter diving competition. Junior diver Michelle McLeod claimed another win for the Cougars after her performance on the platform. The team placed third in the team diving event.

Woloszyn was later named Big 12 Freshman of the Meet and McLeod Big 12 Diver of the Meet following their performance at conference.

Both divers advanced to NCAAs with McLeod competing in all three events for the Cougars and Woloszyn on the 3-meter.

Gunter pushed his team to seven new personal best diving scores this season with Woloszyn earning top personal marks in all three events.
