Ohio State

[edit]

Bradshaw was an outstanding diver for Ohio State University, where he was mentored by the highly skilled Coach Vince Panzano, a former dive team member and graduate for Ohio State in 1973. At Ohio State, Bradshaw was a four-time All-American and won the NCAA springboard title in 1983.[2]

International competition

[edit]

Bradshaw twice won a silver medal in springboard at the Pan American Games, in 1991 and 1995.[2][1]

He won two bronze medals at the 1990 Goodwill Games in the 1 and 2-meter springboard.[3]

In 1999, he was made the head diving coach at Arizona State University, a position he held for over a decade. He was recognized as the Pac-10 Conference Coach of the Year in multiple years and led ASU divers to several Pac-10 titles. He has also served as the head diving coach for Finland at both the 2004 and 2008 Olympics.[1]
