Dive Bomb? I Don't Think So!

Canada has done it again!

Moments ago were the Women's Syncronized Diving finals off the 10 meter platform. Wearing the maple leaf was Meaghan Benfeito, and her diving partner Rosaline Filion. Their diving history is somewhat comedic. Back when they first started diving, they were partnered up because they were the two shortest people on the team. The pairing turned into a close friendship, and that friendship has lead them to the podium (the first time Canada has medalled in this event since 1996). This medal-winning performance is Canada's second of this Olympics thus far. Bravo, ladies, bravo!

Congrats to Filion and Benfeito on your Bronze Medals!

Go, Canada, Go!
