Lechuga Earns Third ACC Diving Accolade of the Season

THE FLATS – Ruben Lechuga has been named the ACC Men’s Diver of the Week for the third time this season, as announced by the conference on Tuesday.

Throughout the season, Lechuga has been an undeniable champion in the men’s diving events and he continued that success this past weekend. In Tech’s win over Pitt and Boston College, the senior swept the men’s 1 Meter (388.95) and 3 Meter dives (416.70). Throughout competition this season, Lechuga has remained undefeated in the two events.

Competitive Drive Initiative
In a unified endeavor, Georgia Tech, the Georgia Tech Foundation, Georgia Tech athletics and the Alexander-Tharpe Fund have come together to accelerate funding for student-athlete scholarships with the launch of the Competitive Drive Initiative. The initiative kicks off with the Accelerate GT Match Program, where any new gift to the A-T Fund’s Athletic Scholarship Fund made through Dec. 31 will be matched dollar-for-dollar by the Georgia Tech Foundation, up to $2.5 million. Should Accelerate GT reach its $2.5 million fundraising goal, the matching gift would result in a $5 million impact for Georgia Tech athletics.
