OAK LAWN, IL — Senior Cohen Laylo qualified for the Illinois High School Association State Finals in diving last year, but he aims for even more success this year at Oak Lawn Community High School. The sky is certainly the limit for this Spartan.

He won the Argo Dive Invitational last week and set a new 11-dive school record with a score of 488.20.

“Cohen has been working hard to improve his diving skills, and his hard work has paid off,” said OLCHS head coach Derek Maciaga.
