Diving coach Monique Demaisip said: "Lexie and Paulina got to compete against divers from the top schools in the Pac-12, including a silver medalist from the most recent Olympics. During the regular season, we don't have much of an opportunity to participate in meets of this caliber. Today was great exposure for Pepperdine and a good learning experience for our athletes."
