KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Cumberlands (Ky.) freshman diver Aiden Crutchfield had an impressive debut for the Patriots, hitting national cuts on both boards at last week's Centre Diving Invite.

Crutchfield opened with a 212.92 on the 3-meter board to hit the national standard of 200 points. That score ranks second in Cumberlands' program history.

He followed with a 214.94 on 1-meter for his second national cut. Both marks are top in the NAIA this season. Crutchfield is the first Patriot to win the honor in program history.
