Jake Mannarino, a 17-year-old national champion diver from Winter Park High school, achieved a historic feat by winning the 1-meter diving competition at the FHSAA state championships in Ocala. Mannarino's record-breaking score of 683.80 points shattered a longstanding FHSAA state meet record. The talented diver, who has won 16-18 national age group titles, credited his success to the Orlando Dive Academy, directed by his parents Terry and Jaq Horner, and his aquatics coach Joe Auer.
Mannarino, a virtual school student from Orange County Public Schools, committed to Tennessee, securing a full ride scholarship and NIL money. His teammate Denzo Senekal won the 100-yard backstroke, while Orlando-area schools secured three first-place medals across swimming events.
