Honer's dominance on the diving boards reached new heights, as the freshman phenom set two personal bests and a new Lancer record in the process, as he won both boards yet again.
It helped the Lancer men defeat the Stags 143-95. Honer set a new program record on the 3-meter board, as he won the event with 369.23 points. It was well above the previous CBU best of 359.10 set by Zach Parry in 2017-18. Honer opened the day with a 329.40 score on 1-meter, which was a new personal best and moves him up to third in Lancer history on that event.
