Texas senior divers Mary Yarrison and Jessica Livingston and Texas-Ex Laura Wilkinson have been selected to represent the United States at the 2008 AT&T USA Diving Grand Prix set for May 8-11 in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.

Yarrison will compete in the three-meter synchronized diving event alongside Abby Johnston, with whom she won the event on Friday, April 19 at the 2008 Speedo USA Diving Spring National Championship.

Yarrison (Springfield, Va.) took second in the one-meter event and ninth in the three-meter event at the 2008 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championship in Columbus, Ohio.

Livingston (The Woodlands, Texas) and Wilkinson (The Woodlands, Texas), who won the 10-meter synchronized platform diving event on April 17 at the 2008 Speedo USA Diving Spring National Championship, will compete in that same event at the USA Grand Prix. Wilkinson also will compete in the individual platform event.

Livingston, the 2007 NCAA platform champion, redshirted during the 2007-08 Texas women’s swimming and diving season and has one season of collegiate eligibility remaining.
