Tenafly native Mike Mosca qualifies for 2016 Olympics trials
Mike Mosca who did not reach the 2012 Olympics was a finalist at the Olympic trials and has qualified again for 2016. And after winning his fourth consecutive 1-meter springboard crown and a third straight 3-meter title in late February at the Ivy League Championships. The Tenafly native and senior at Harvard , set Harvard and Ivy League meet records last month with his 3-meter score of 457.35, smashing the previous mark by 50 points. And he was the third diver in league history to sweep both events at three championship meets.
Mosca represented his team well with his performance, finishing in the top five in the three-meter synchronized dive alongside his partner, University of North Carolina sophomore Jack Nyquist. The pair finished with a fifth place score of 378.51 points, which was enough to qualify for the 2016 Olympic Trials.
And Mosca’s accomplishments this year don’t stop in the pool. The History and Science concentrator was also named a Rhodes Scholar Finalist earlier this fall.
