Julio Osuna Joins Wayne State Men's Swimming and Diving Team

DETROIT -- Wayne State University swimming and diving head coach Sean Peters has announced the addition of Julio Osuna, a diving transfer from Indianapolis, to the 2024-25 roster.  Osuna competed for three seasons as a Greyhound while being named the College Swimming & Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) National Diver of the Year each of the past two years.

The Warriors' third-year diving coach Jason Trout had this to say about the incoming senior:  "I am thrilled about the addition of Julio this year.  He brings a wealth of diving experience and leadership to an otherwise young diving team.  Wayne State diving has a long tradition of top men's divers at both the GLIAC and Division II level and Julio is an excellent addition to that story.  While we may only have Julio for a year, I believe that his impact will be a lasting one on the program."
