Competing for the fourth consecutive day at the 2024 Paris Olympics on Friday, Carson Tyler participated in the men’s platform event — his second event in his Olympic debut. After placing fourth on the springboard Thursday, Tyler couldn’t quite replicate the form he showed at the NCAA Championships in March, where he won his second-straight platform national title. The 20-year-old placed 19th in Friday’s prelim, just 2.5 points short of the cutline. Still, Tyler made history as the first American to compete in both individual diving events since Mark Ruiz in 2000.
Canadian water polo athletes Jessica Gaudreault and Shae La Roche will make Indiana University’s final mark at the 2024 Paris Games. Saturday at 2 a.m. ET, Canada will face Greece in the 7th/8th place game.
