Swim Team Gains Experience The 1972-75 Boys' Swim Team was a team of underclassmen. There were no Seniors to lead the team this year. The team took their knocks this season, but the next year's team should be at the top of the league because of the talent and experi- ence they gained this year. This young team went to the district meet and represented the Chieftains very well as they captured eighth place. Individual winners were Dean Barrus, eighth in diving and junior standout Barry Collier fourth place in the 100 yard Butterfly and seventh in the 400 yard Freestyle. Barry Collier went on to the state meet and placed tenth in the 100 yard Butterfly, setting a new school record of: 56.8. The previous record was: 57.8 which he had set earlier in the season. Collier also set another school record in the 200 Individual Medley, beating Bruce Campbellis 1966 time of 2:18.0 by swimming in 2:17,9 at the 1973 All-City Swim Meet. The 1975 team was co-captained by Vernon Bryant, Barry Collier, and Dave Delong. junior john Watkins is in the lead in his freestyle event.
