GREENSBORO, N.C. – Ithaca sophomore Anna Belson claimed her second All-American title in two days after finishing in fourth place on the 3-meter board at the 2016 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships in Greensboro, N.C. on Saturday while classmate Katie Helly finished in 15th place to conclude the season.

Belson earned 433.60 points in the preliminary round before notching 448.45 points in the final dive, which was less than 30 point off the lead score.  Her All-American status was the third in her two-year career after the Hartland, Wis. native earned All-American honors on the 1-meter board earlier this week with a fourth place finish on the 1-meter board. 

Helly finished in 15th place with a score of 406.80, which beat out nine other divers and earned two points towards the Bombers' team score.

The Stevens Institute of Technology 400-freestyle relay team of sophomore Sarah Jurczyk, senior Jennifer Rutledge, freshman Courtney Jones and junior Danielle Caruso placed 12th (3:27.96), after finishing 14th during the preliminary round Saturday morning.
