Verzyl Earns SEC Diver of the Week

COLUMBIA, S.C. – South Carolina diver Sophie Verzyl earned her first SEC Diver accolade of the season, 10th of her career, the league announced Tuesday.

Verzyl led the way in both meets last week, earning four first-place finishes, two against No. 12 Georgia and two vs. Arkansas.
