BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Senior Kristen Hayden’s seventh-place finish in women’s synchronized 3-meter diving on Sunday (July 3) concluded Indiana swimming and diving’s performances at the 2022 FINA World Championships in Budapest.

In all, 13 athletes and two coaches with ties to the Indiana swimming and diving program totaled four medals, three of them gold. The athletes also put together 25 top-15 finishes between diving, open water swimming and pool swimming.

Former IU swimmer Lilly King won three gold medals during the competition. With a victory in the 200-meter breaststroke race, King became the first American swimmer to win a career of gold medals in the 50, 100 and 200-meter events of one stroke at the long course world championships.

On Friday, coming out of his freshman season, Carson Tyler nabbed a bronze medal in mixed synchronized platform diving with USA Diving teammate Delaney Schnell. It was a great final weekend for IU divers, as Kristen Hayden capped the meet with an 13th-place showing Friday in women’s 3-meter diving before her seventh-place performance on Sunday. Hayden also finished eighth in mixed synchronized 3-meter diving last week with IU teammate Quinn Henninger.

The meet opened strong for the Hoosiers as freshman Ching Hwee Gan and former IU swimmer Mohamed Samy each broke national records on the first day of pool swimming competition. Gan’s 16:32.43 set Singapore’s standard in the 1500-meter freestyle and placed 14th in the competition, while Samy went 54.67 in the 100-meter backstroke to set the new mark for Egypt and finish 20th.

Freshman Mariah Denigan represented the Hoosiers in open water swimming. Denigan helped Team USA to a seventh-place finish in the mixed 4×1500-meter swim, then, later in the week, earned an individual 15th-place finish in the women’s 10-kilometer race.
