The Minnesota Pork Board announces synchronized diving duo Kassidy Cook and Sarah Bacon are joining Team Pork. Cook and Bacon are nationally recognized divers who train in Minneapolis, MN.

As new members of Team Pork, the athletes will engage in social media, a community food bank donation, and in-person appearances on behalf of Minnesota Pork. Cook and Bacon will promote pork as a healthy protein source suitable to fit any diet.
