All swimmers qualify for CIF playoffs Every single member of the swim team qualified for the CIF playoffs, but all were disqualified in the first round. Facing harder competition and more experienced swimmers than in past years the men's swim team did little more than capture an Empire League fourth place. Several injuries also stopped the team from making a better show- ing in the CIF playoffs. Senior Trent Pettijohn was bothered by a badly sprained ankle and didn't do as well as was hoped. Coached by first year walk-on coach Doug Kimberly who replaced former swim coach Bob Gaviglio the team, according to Kimberly, did set individual goals. Even though the boys didn't place in CIF I feel that all of them reached their goals, said Kimberly. .. 'f f 4 brig? . .E ,Q I of - .

Honors student can Swim Swimming mainly for fun and to keep in shape senior Trent Pettijohn has been an active member of both the swim team and the water polo team for the past four years. Pettijohn, along with senior John Ma- tusek, dispel the stereotype of the dumb jock . Pettijohn, like Matusek, is an honors student and has one of the two highest grade point averages in the school. Pettijohn, as well as being an outstanding athlete, is also an out- standing academician. In the fall Petti- john will be attending the University of California at Irvine and will partici- pate in their water polo, but not their swim program. Pettijohn, whose specialty is the breast stroke, did qualify for CIF this year, but was disqualified in the first round due to a badly sprained ankle that ham- pered his performance. Pettijohn praised new Coach Doug Kimberly saying that Kimberly is an excellent coach and that the team ap- preciated the amount of time Kimberly spent with the team. , W. 13 'ff . .fe . . f f .
