Success began early for Peytton. Her freshman year, she won a state championship, the first girls' diver in school history to accomplish this feat. She then succeeded in winning the state title for a second straight year as a sophomore, narrowly missing a state-record score in the process. She was state runner-up as a junior and state champion again this past season.
Peytton has earned numerous honors in her career. She has been the Enquirer's Northern Kentucky Diver of the Year three times and named to the KHSAA all-region team four times. Last season she was named a diving All-American and was a finalist for Diver of the Year by the USA Today's Greater Cincinnati High School Sports Awards. She has competed in one meter, three meter and platform diving competitions at the national level in both USA and AAU diving meets. She also dives for the IHK Diving club team.
A great student who is active in community service, Peytton's favorite entertainer is Taylor Swift and favorite movie is The Hunger Games. She is going to continue her academic and athletic endeavors next season at New Mexico State University.
