MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. - With the 2026-27 campaign on the horizon, St. Thomas University Head Swimming & Diving Coach Caesar Asadi announced the addition of Holly Prasanto as the Bobcats' new Diving Coach. Prasanto heads to Miami Gardens after finding success at the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NCAA) Division I level and on the International stage.

"We are excited to have Holly take the helm of our diving program," Asadi said. "Her passion for diving and coaching philosophy align well with our mission to build better humans. I look forward to helping her build St. Thomas Diving to the standard of excellence in all that we do."

A native of Sheffield, England, Prasanto comes to St. Thomas from Rutgers University where she was a four-time qualifier for the NCAA Zone A Championships in the 1M dive while earning three trips for the 3M event. Earning All-American Second Team status in 2024 behind a top-10 finish at the NCAA National Championship in the 1M dive, she graduated from Rutgers with the fourth-best marks in the Scarlet Knights' record book for both events.

On top of her experience in the NCAA, Prasanto also brings international experience after representing Great Britain at the 2023 European Games.

On the coaching side, she has assisted the Knights Diving Academy and City of Sheffield Diving Club.

The Bobcats are coming off top-five showings on both sides at the 2026 National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) National Championship. Since 2023, both programs have finished in the top-five every season with the men winning the National Championship in 2024 while the Women posted back-to-back National Runner-Up campaigns in 2024 and 2025.
