About Kassidy:
Kassidy Cook has it all. Looks, charm, charisma, a supportive family, and more importantly ..... a ton of talent! Of all the stars on the rise in the world of diving, hers may be the brightest as she showed at the 2010 Junior World Championships, winning both 1M and 3M and finishing second in 3M synchro. Now having proven herself to be one of the best female junior divers in the country and in the world, she now has her sights set on bigger prizes. And it comes with perfect timing as the London Olympics are right around the corner.
