ST. LOUIS, Mo.-- Senior Eva Reyes was named Diver of the Week by the Missouri Valley Conference, as announced by the league office on Wednesday. This comes after a strong performance last weekend when the Redbirds hosted Ohio University.
Reyes recorded a season-best on the 1-meter board by posting a score of 290.25 for first place. She also took home the 3-meter title with a score of 280.05.
During her time as a Illinois State, Reyes earned MVC Diver of the Year Honors both as a freshman and sophomore. A season ago, she was the second diver in program history and third diver in conference history to earn three-straight 1-meter titles.Â
In 2023-24, she was a two-time MVC Diver of the Week after stellar performances against Eastern Illinois on October 6 (claimed 1M and 3M titles) and Ohio on October 14 (swept 1M and 3M events).
The Tijuana, Mexico native, was named to the 2024 MVC Scholar Athlete Team and was a CSCAA Scholar All-American Team selection as a sophomore in 2023.
