MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. - TCU sophomore diver R.J. Hesselberg completed the first of three days at the 2007 NCAA Division I Men's Swimming and Diving Championships on Thursday at the University Aquatic Center in Minneapolis, Minn.

Hesselberg, a native of Saskatoon, Canada, posted a score of 262.90 in six dives in the one-meter preliminary event to place 30th. The top eight divers of the preliminaries automatically qualified to the finals, while the next eight moved on to the consolation round.
