About Amy:
Amy Cozad has won four national titles, all of which have come in synchronized platform. Three of the titles were with Laura Ryan and the other was with Amy Korthauer. Both Ryan and Korthauer are teammates at Indiana University. Get the picture? Synchro teammates that train together, win together.
Her most recent title has qualified them for the 2012 FINA World Cup in London, and despite the fact that 2008 Olympians in synchro Mary Beth Dunnichay and Haley Ishimatsu are competing together again, may give them an inside track to London. But first things first, they need to qualify the U.S. to compete in the event at the World Cup.
