Hawai'i's Megan Farrow overcame injury and a disappointing opening day to take fourth in 3-meter diving last night at the NCAA Women's Swimming and Diving Championship in Minneapolis. The top-eight finish earned Farrow All-America honors.

The senior from Canada was 10th in the 3-meter last year, and was an honorable mention All-American.

She finished second in yesterday's preliminaries to advance, accumulating 356.9 points. Farrow had 353.75 points in the final.

Stanford senior Cassidy Krug won with 420.9 points, getting scores of 70 or better on four of her six dives. Only one other diver scored more than 370 points.

Hawai'i freshman Emma Friesen was 21st in the 3-meter preliminaries, with 303.45 points — about seven points short of advancing to the consolation finals. She was 17th — one spot short of advancing to consolations finals — in Thursday's 1-meter preliminaries.

Farrow, who injured her knee recently, also failed to advance the first day.

Rainbow Wahine senior Nicole Mackey, from Newport Beach, Calif., had the 26th-fastest time in this morning's 100-yard backstroke preliminaries. Mackey, the only WAC swimmer to qualify for NCAAs, failed to advance with a time of 54.81. She swims the 200 today.

Chelsea Nagata, a UC-Irvine junior from Maui, finished eighth in the 100 butterfly in 53.11. Nagata swam the prelims in a school-record time of 52.73 to earn All-America honors in the event a second straight season. She became the Anteaters first All-American last year.
