Marist’s O’Nalty Named MAAC Diver Of The Week

Junior Snags Conference Honor

Marist junior Devon O’Nalty ( East Hartford , Conn. ) was named Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Men’s Diver of the Week, the conference announced Monday.

O’Nalty earned the honor by virtue of his performance in the season-opening Red Fox Invitational, held this past Friday and Saturday against Army and Syracuse . He swept the diving events, winning the 1-meter dive (268.00) and also prevailing in the 3-meter dive (286.15).

The award is the third of O’Nalty’s career, having captured the honor the weeks of Nov. 21 and Jan. 31 last season.

The Marist men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams will return to action on Thursday, when the Red Foxes travel to Fordham for their first dual meet of the year. In last year’s meeting, the men earned a 140-101 triumph over the Rams.
