Competitive history

Ishimatsu has been a member of the U.S. national diving team since 2006, medaling in over ten different competitions nationally and internationally.[1]

Ishimatsu is a member of the 2008 U.S. Olympic team in both the 10-meter platform and the synchronized 10-meter platform event with Mary Beth Dunnichay.[4] In the synchronized competition Ishimatsu and Dunnichay earned fifth place scoring 309.12.[5] In the individual event, Ishimatsu finished tenth with a score of 329.00 in the preliminary round,[6] but did not make finals, finishing in 14th place[7][8] with a score of 292.95.[8]

Ishimatsu continued diving in preparation for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, stating:[9] "Now I know what the experience is like, some of the surprises," Ishimatsu told the Associated Press. "I'll be able to deal with it better."[9] However, Ishimatsu failed to secure a return to London, faltering badly on her 4th dive in the June 2012 diving trials in Seattle, WA.
