Laps of Oiscipum Swimming was a challenging sport. However, not everyone realized that fact. ' IT pi ' ' Mike Roberts Look in the water! It ' s a fish, it ' s a porpoise, no it ' s SUPERSWIMMER!! Practicing almost three hours a day, the swinnming team fought a never-ending battle against time, fatigue, and leaky goggles. Many students on campus considered swimming the easy sport ; the sport that anyone could go out for and get a letter. Not so; swim- ming was a challenging sport that took practice and a great deal of effort. As Coach Bill Grisham always said to his swimmers, If anyone ever harasses you about being a swimmer, just ask him to come out to the pool so you can race him. The swim team has been solid for several years. Girls varsity won Ivy League in 1985 and 1986, and placed in the top three again this year. The boys varsity has held its own by winning al- most as many meets as they lost. We aren ' t the supers- wimmers in the league, commented Eve Larson, but we definitely get the job done. Eve, along with the other yell leaders, Mary Vikupitz, Christina Edivan, Joe Filllppelli, and Mike Rob- erts, made sure that the Lions were number one in spirit. Spirit gave us a great psychological advantage at our close meets, evaluated assistant Coach Danny Mill- er. We made the other team know we were going to beat them. The superswimmers of Ar- lington did a great job. The Arlington swim team was something for the school to have pride in, concluded Karen Madokoro.
