The Utes\u2019 swim program added three men and five women to the 2015-16 roster, while head diving coach Richard Marschner added one diver on the men\u2019s side and a pair of women divers to the roster as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI couldn\u2019t be more excited to welcome these 11 talented student-athletes to our team,\u201d said Dykstra. \u201cThey come from a wide range of backgrounds and geographic locations, but all have the qualities we are looking for in that they are highly motivated to improve, want to be a part of a great team dynamic, and love the University of Utah. They will definitely come in and contribute immediately and help us keep the program on an upward trajectory over the next four years.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>MEN<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Cole Avery<\/strong><br \/>\nHometown: Bellingham, Wash.<br \/>\nHigh School: Sehome High School<br \/>\nHigh School Coach: Don Helling<br \/>\nClub Team: Bellingham Bay Swim Team<br \/>\nClub Coach: Sean Muncie<\/p>\n<p>Avery is a No. 5-ranked recruit out of Washington, according to CollegeSwimming.com.

Avery chose Utah over West Virginia, U.S. Naval Academy, Cal Poly and San Luis Obispo.<\/p>\n<p>Why Avery Chose Utah: \u201cUtah demonstrates excellence both academically and athletically. The team environment is very supportive and positive. I felt at home right away with all the amazing people and the gorgeous campus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coach Dykstra on Avery: \u201cWe have done very well recruiting the Pacific Northwest the past two years and Cole definitely continues that trend for us. He is a great under water kicker and that skill lends itself to success in collegiate swimming in a variety of events.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Connor Cain<\/strong><br \/>\nHometown: Clovis, Calif.<br \/>\nHigh School: Buchanan High School<br \/>\nHigh School Coach: Lindsay Crawford\/Teresa Hall<br \/>\nClub Team: Capital Divers<br \/>\nClub Coach: Dede Crayne<\/p>\n<p>Cain is a two-time Tri-River Athletic Conference champion and a two-time CIF Central Section Division I champion as well. He was named the 2014 NorCal Diver of the Year and was a 2014 NISCA Diving All-American. He was a finalist in the one-meter at the 2014 USA Diving Age Group Nationals. His top scores include the one-meter (504.30) and the three-meter (497.05). Cain chose Utah over Cal Poly, UNLV and Florida.<\/p>\n<p>Why Cain Chose Utah: \u201cThe first time I stepped onto Utah&#8217;s campus, all I could think of was how perfect it was. Then I met the team and fell in love all over again. I love how the swim and dive teams are a family rather than acting like two totally separate teams. I can&#8217;t wait to call the University of Utah home next year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coach Marschner on Cain: &#8220;Connor is already a high level diver and I think he has great upside. He isn&#8217;t able to train very much in the winter due to a lack of opportunity in Fresno, so he will really develop once he gets here. Connor is a very hard worker with a great attitude that will fit in seamlessly with our team.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel McArthur<\/strong><br \/>\nHometown: Lakewood, Calif.<br \/>\nHigh School: Lakewood High School<br \/>\nHigh School Coach: AJ Butler<br \/>\nClub Team: Lakewood Aquatics<br \/>\nClub Coach: Jon Moore<\/p>\n<p>McArthur is a No. 8-ranked recruit out of California, according to CollegeSwimming.com.

McArthur chose Utah over Alabama, USC and Michigan.<\/p>\n<p>Why McArthur Chose Utah: \u201cThere are many reasons I decided on the University of Utah, but what it really came down to was the extreme enthusiasm I experienced from the coaching staff and the motivation I saw in the entire team to be the best.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coach Dykstra on McArthur: \u201cDaniel is one of the highest ranked recruits to ever commit to Utah and we are so excited he chose to come join our program after being heavily recruited by several of the traditional powerhouses in our sport. He is already fast enough to score in multiple events in the Pac-12 Conference, and has the potential to be an NCAA qualifier and possibly an All-American as a freshman. He has great size, great work ethic, and a desire to keep getting faster and make a name for himself at the highest level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colten Montgomery<\/strong><br \/>\nHometown: Winters, Calif.<br \/>\nHigh School: Winters High School<br \/>\nHigh School Coach: Kevin Chester<br \/>\nClub Team: Davis Aquamonsters<br \/>\nClub Coach: Matt Crawford<\/p>\n<p>Montgomery\u2019s best events include the 50 free (20.22), 100 free (45.85) and the 100 fly (49.93).

I believe they can and will continue to do big things in swimming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coach Dykstra on Montgomery: \u201cColten comes from a small town in California and has to commute to Davis to train. He has already graduated high school and is using this year to get stronger and more race-ready for Pac-12 competition. He has a great feel for the water and a wiry kind of strength. We can\u2019t wait to get him here and start him in our sprint program.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>WOMEN<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Jordan Anderson<\/strong><br \/>\nHometown: Granite Bay, Calif.<br \/>\nHigh School: Granite Bay High School<br \/>\nHigh School Coach: John Sherman<br \/>\nClub Team: Sierra Marlins Swim Team<br \/>\nClub Coach: Scott Shea<\/p>\n<p>Anderson is a No. 50-ranked recruit out of California, according to CollegeSwimming.com.

She placed fifth overall at CIF finals in 2014 and was a finalist for All-American accolades.<\/p>\n<p>Coach Marschner on Payne: \u201cOlivia is a bit of an under the radar recruit who we think extremely highly of. She has some serious untapped potential with the drive and work ethic to become great. She will be one of those divers in a couple years and people will say &#8216;where did she come from?&#8217;, because she is going to be great but people haven&#8217;t gotten the chance to see that in her yet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Genevieve Robertson<\/strong><br \/>\nHometown: Guelph, Ontario Canada<br \/>\nHigh School: John F Ross<br \/>\nHigh School Coach: James Ball<br \/>\nClub Team: Guelph Marlin Aquatic Club<br \/>\nClub Coach: Don Burton and Kendra Burton<\/p>\n<p>Robertson is ranked No. 11 internationally, according to CollegeSwimming.com.

The campus is gorgeous and training at altitude would definitely be beneficial. I have not yet visited the school, but I am extremely excited to do so. Also being apart of a competitive conference was important, and Utah is part of the Pac-12, which is highly competitive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coach Dykstra on Robertson: \u201cGenevieve is one of the top ranked breaststroke recruits in the world this year and we are thrilled for her to join our team.

The coaching staff has some really great ideas and the University was beautiful! I am really looking forward to the next four years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coach Dykstra on St. John: \u201cYou always need to sign a good sprinter in every recruiting class and Gillian is certainly that for our women\u2019s class this year. Gillian fit in so well with our team on her recruiting visit and I knew it would be a great match right away. She has the speed and athleticism to immediately make our \u201cA\u201d relays next year, and she will be a big boost to our team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Julienne Tadena<\/strong><br \/>\nHometown: Orangevale, Calif.<br \/>\nHigh School: Granite Bay High School<br \/>\nHigh School Coach: John Sherman<br \/>\nClub Team: Sierra Marlins<br \/>\nClub Coach: Scott Shea<\/p>\n<p>Tadena is a No. 45-ranked recruit out of California, according to CollegeSwimming.com.
