CONFERENCE SUCCESS
• After missing the New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) Championships due to injury as a rookie in 2024, Krol earned his first podium finishes by placing second on 3-meter (493.50) and third on 1-meter (469.50) at the 2025 championships at WPI.

RECORD BREAKER
• Krol broke the 6-dive program record on both boards in 2024-25, scoring 342.30 on the 1-meter board to break his own program mark of 321.35, and 348.60 points on 3-meter to surpass the mark of 332.45 by Paradis in 2008.
• Krol scored a career-high 514.92 points on 3-meter at last weekend's NEWMAC Championships, which was less than three points on the four-decades-old program record of 517.75 set by Paul Cuneo '85.
