Two Swimmers, Two Divers Notch All-America Honors on Day Three

AUSTIN, Texas – David Hoffer (3M), Youssef Selim (3M), Grant House (200 free) and Zach Poti (100 back) all notched All-American honors for Sun Devil men's swimming and diving on day three of the 2019 National Championships. The men's squad now totals eight All-Americans with one day left of competition.
 
After missing making the finals in one-meter yesterday, Youssef Selim and David Hoffer stormed back today in the three-meter to both earn a chance to compete in the consolation finals after a successful preliminary round. Selim took 14^th with a score of 353.15 while Hoffer followed just behind in 15^th at 352.40.
 
Returning in the finals, Hoffer took fourth (347.80) in the consolation heat for 12^th place overall, the highest finish of his career for the graduate student in his last season of eligibility. Selim followed in 8^th and 16^th overall (304.20) to secure All-American honors for both divers.
 
Racing to a then-fifth-fastest time in Arizona State history in the preliminary round, sophomore House took 12^th place with a mark of 1:32.66 to earn a spot in the consolation finals of the 200 freestyle. House returned later that evening in the finals for an even faster negative split, touching the wall at 1:32.29 for the third-fastest time in program history.
 
With the finish, House earned All-American honorable mention honors, the second of his career in the 200 free. House also became only the second Sun Devil in school history to go sub-1:32.50 in the 200 free and the first to do so since 2017.
 
Poti was the last to take the block for the maroon and gold, earning a spot in the consolation finals after taking 10^th place (45.14) in the preliminary round. He touched the wall at 45.12 in the finals for third place – 11^th overall – to put six points on the board for the Sun Devils and their fourth All-America honor of the day.
 
After three of four days, ASU has accumulated 36.5 points to sit in 22nd place.
 
The Sun Devils will take the block in the 200 back, 100 free, 200 breast, 400 free relay and on platform over in the diving well. Fans can keep up with the action at the links above or by following @ASUSwimDive on Twitter.
