1971 - 1972 Swimming Team The 1971 - 1972 season saw Babbitt post its best record since the beginning of the high school. The Knight swimmers, with a record of 13 and 3, were defeated by perennial range powers Virginia and l-Iibbing and were upset by Eveleth in Eveleth's pool. One week later the swim team reversed that loss with a resounding defeat of Eveleth in Babbitt's own pool. A few of the high points of the season were the establishment of new school records by some of the Babbitt swim team. The Medley Relay Team of Torn Olson, Doug Beckwith, Dan Chamberlin and Gary Poffenberger, Dennis Johnson in Diving and Doug Beckwith in the 100 yard Breast Stroke, and Dan Chamberlin in the 100 yard Butterfly, were record breakers for the year. In December the swim team had another first when they won the Biwabik quintantular for the first time in five years of trying. As of now we don't know how many, if any, of our swimmers will qualify for the state meet but we are always hopeful that at least as many as last years six will make it. The best individual performance to date was probably that of Co-Captain Dennis Johnson winning the diving at the Virginia Invitational, February 24. He defeated the best of 17 other schools to earn that distinction. Hi' siWS31'v 1 'K if Practicing Success! !
