PASADENA, Calif. — David Boudia and Thomas Finchum scored a career-high 464.04 points to win the 10-meter synchronized platform title at the U.S. national diving championships today in their final meet before the Beijing Olympics.

Boudia and Finchum earned three 10s and received at least one 9.0 on all six of their dives as temperatures hit the 90s at the Rose Bowl Aquatic Center. The duo from the Indianapolis area are contenders to win a synchro medal in China.
