Diving (@ClemsonDiving)The women’s diving team competes at the ACC Championships beginning Thursday and concluding Saturday.

Ashlan Ramsey led the Tigers with a third place finish, her fifth top 10 in five tournaments this year. But, Ramsey had some help as Clemson had four of the top 16 individuals in the 11-team tournament.
McKenzie Talbert (6th) and Lauren Salazar (7th) had their season best finishes and Sloan Shanahan finished 16th for her fifth-straight top 20 finish this year. Clemson and Virginia combined to win the Match-Up competition within the tournament by two shots over the team from South Carolina and Mississippi State.
