June 16, 2007 Brennan, Bryant give U.S. another silver, bronze on 3-meter at Italian Grand Prix ROME – Allison Brennan (Huntington Beach, Calif.) and Kelci Bryant (Chatham, Ill.) gave the U.S. two more medals on 3-meter at the Italian Grand Prix on Saturday. Brennan, the 2006 U.S. national champion, scored 325.65 points for silver and Bryant tallied a 299.90 for bronze behind Italy’s Tania Cagnotto, a two-time World Championship bronze medalist who won the gold with 329.20 points. The medals were the first individual medals in international competition for both Brennan and Bryant, although Bryant has won several medals in synchronized diving events. Their medals also marked the first individual medals for U.S. women this year. U.S. divers have won 18 medals in 2007 Grand Prix competition, but the majority of those have been on the men’s side – including a silver from Troy Dumais (Ventura, Calif.) and a bronze from Chris Colwill (Brandon, Fla.) on 3-meter on the first day of the Italian Grand Prix. Men’s 10-meter was also contested Saturday, and David Boudia (Noblesville, Ind.) led the U.S. with a fifth-place 458.55. Thomas Finchum (Indianapolis, Ind.) was ninth at 456.70. China’s Li Junbai scored 560.50 for the gold. The Italian Grand Prix concludes Sunday, June 17 with all four synchronized diving events.
