UNC diver Aranza Vazquez prepares for second Olympic appearance

Posted Jul 12, 2024
After placing sixth in the 3-meter springboard competition at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, UNC diver Aranza Vazquez has one personal goal left to check off before her time at UNC ends — medaling at the Olympics. "Being on the podium, I think that’s my biggest dream," Vazquez said. "At that point, I don’t care about the color, as long as it’s metal, I want it." (Daily Tar Heel)
