Bromberg won the title in her home pool for her first diving title in her career. Bromberg won over Purdue junior Emily Meaney (336.15) and Indiana senior Jessica Parratto (332.90).

Bromberg was not far off the meet record of 396.75 by Haley Ishimatsu of USC from 2013.

Two-time defending champion Olivia Rosendahl of Northwestern placed seventh at 290.40 and was out of contention.

Arizona’s Delaney Schnell (321.45) placed fourth for the Wildcats. Nebraska’s Abigail Knapton (316.75), Texas A&M’s Alais Kalonji (305.30) and Florida International’s Maha Gouda (270.55) also competed in the final.

Texas now has five NCAA titles in platform diving. Bromberg joins the likes of Laura Wilkinson (1997, 99), Nicole Pohorenec (2004) and Jessica Livingston (2007) as winners of the event for the Longhorns.
