February 2008 Diver of the Month
Next Generation Diving Team

Shannon McDonagh
Shannon McDonagh has had a great year since starting back with us in January. Her commitment and maturity have turned her into a very competitive diver. Despite great fear and apprehensions, she committed to learning the dives she needed to compete at the YMCA National Championships in Fort Lauderdale, and became a crucial scorer for the our National Championship title! Shannon has not only learned, but competed forward double on 1-meter, back 1 1/2 on 1-meter and 3-meter, and back 1 1/2 with 1/2 twists on both boards. Shannon is only in 8th grade and has a very bright future in the sport!! Shannon we are so proud of you!
