Purdue sophomore Steele Johnson won his second title in as many days on Friday night at the 2017 NCAA Division I Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships in the 3m diving. Johnson won the 1m diving title last night, as he puts himself in contention to be the first diver to sweep all three boards at the NCAA Championships.

Johnson won the title with 502.20 points ahead of Miami, FL’s Briadam Herrera at 477.30 and LSU’s Juan Hernandez at 464.35. Tennessee’s Liam Stone, Indiana’s Michael Hixon and James Connor, Minnesota’s Matt Barnard and Texas’ Grayson Campbell also competed in the 3m final.

Purdue has now won four 3m diving titles. Johnson joins David Boudia (2009-2011) as a winner in the 3m diving title for the Boilermakers.
