They quickly discovered that it wasn\u2019t just their names that went together (I mean how can you beat Cook-Bacon?).<\/p>\n<p>They became friends despite living in different parts of the country and kept that friendship going while competing against each other at USA and college meets on the biggest stages.<\/p>\n<p>Now, they are competing together, as well as against each other.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/kassidy-cook-returns-as-usa-diving-champion-after-devastating-injuries-retirement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cook<\/a> and Bacon are aiming to make the U.S. Olympic team in synchronized diving as well as individually on the 3-meter springboard.

But also a very important part, especially in our partnership, is having a good friendship,\u201d Kassidy Cook said. \u201cI have known Sarah since I was about 10 years old. We competed against each other in junior diving, then NCAA diving. We were always close but became even closer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I am up there with her I don\u2019t only want to do well for myself, but I also want to do well for her. Having that chemistry is really important as well as technical similarities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the USA Diving Winter Nationals in December 2019.

Photo Courtesy: Kassidy Cook<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Cook made the 2016 Olympic team and helped Stanford win an NCAA championship in 2018 before retiring from the sport for a time because of injuries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI missed the sport and felt like I would regret it if I didn\u2019t try once more. I had my third shoulder surgery and my body was just kind of exhausted,\u201d Cook said. \u201cI had that pressure to set myself up for life after sport and those pressures and the toll the sport was taking on my body led to the decision to retire. But I quit my job and went back to training. I really missed the sport. These years are special to me and I would have definitely regretted not going for the Olympics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bacon won both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/sarah-bacon-wins-third-straight-1m-diving-ncaa-title-for-minnesota\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">springboard<\/a> NCAA titles in March for Minnesota. She is a four-time NCAA champion and a worlds silver medalist.<\/p>\n<p>With Bacon living in Minnesota and Cook living in Texas, they don\u2019t get to train as much as they would have liked to, especially during the pandemic, but that hasn\u2019t stopped them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe live in different states so we have tried to train together once a month, but starting in March 2020, we couldn\u2019t for a while. We started picking back up on our training in October and have been doing trips back and forth ever since then,\u201d Kassidy Cook said.<\/p>\n<p>Bacon said that having school online at the University of Minnesota has been vital to that training.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are completely online, so that has made it easier for Kassidy to come train with me or me to go to Texas to train with her. I can do schoolwork online and I just hop on Zooms at her house,\u201d Bacon said. \u201cIt has made training easier for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And their friendship has made everything else easier.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have known each other for a very long time. Our coaches talk to each other on a daily basis about what we are doing in and out of the pool. If I am doing a lot of lifting, Kassidy is doing that. Our workout plans are similar. We spend a lot of time together. I will go down and spend a week with her at Texas,\u201d Bacon said. \u201cWe spend a lot of time together, we buy matching outfits \u2014\u00a0if you can find a partner you can have fun with, it just makes you grow more and makes diving more enjoyable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And it could mean a Cook-Bacon sizzling experience in Tokyo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Divers Kassidy Cook and Sarah Bacon met at a young age.
