Avery Cowan experienced a gold rush at the Canadian Junior Development Diving Championships in Regina this past weekend.
The Windsor Diving Club athlete won the girls 3m and 1m Group D events and capped off the weekend with a third gold medal on the platform.
Cowan put up a score of 214.70 points to edge out Arie McNaughton of Regina by seven points in her final solo event. “I feel fantastic," Cowan told Diving Canada. "I’m proud to have made it back to the final, and I wanted to have fun,”
Cowan grinded out a win over Quebec's Lexie Cotton-Gagnon in the 3m, increased her dive difficulty in the final round of the 1m for the victory and scored big with her carp somersault dive from a handstand position to wrap up the platform.
A member of the Windsor Diving Club since she was seven, Cowan was named oustanding diver at national a year ago and making a name for herselft through Canada's High Performance program.
