GIRLS’ DIVING

Crescenta Valley at CIF Southern Section Division II Diving Championships: Last season’s CIF champion Katelynn Shaheen fell just a little short in the defense of her title in taking second place to Long Beach Millikan’s Jenna Sonnenberg on Monday afternoon at Riverside City College.

The junior tallied 490.90 points and was just nipped by Sonnenberg (514.30) for the title.

“It’s a friendly, but very competitive rivalry that she has with [Sonnenberg],” Crescenta Valley coach Peter Kim. “It’s one of those things with who brings a little more extra at the right time. Out of 11 dives, you have to have a little luck on your side and it wasn’t anything that Katie didn’t do, [Sonnenberg] just did a little more.”

Last season, Shaheen defeated Sonnenberg, 478.45-477.30, for the Division II title. Shaheen has finished first or second since her freshman year.

Crescenta Valley junior Isabelle Jewett finished 19th with 249 points.
