tate bound, practice in new pool We have a lot of depth this year, a trait we haven't had in the past, said swim coach Richard Cooper. We have a good chance for and state ti- tles. This year the swimmers will practice in the new Eastern Hills pool which Mr. Cooper helped design, the concentration being on speed and practibility. The team also got new starting blocks as a result of a cake sale which almost cleared one hun- dreddollars. Sprinters on the team will include Kent Markle and John Chambers in the 50 freestyle with John Marsalla and Steve Rutter in the 100 freestyle. The 100 backstroke and breaststroke swimmers are Dee Crawford, Paul Bow- den, Jim Kelton and Jim Lenhart. The team finished off with distance swim- mers Bill Ullery, Doug Northway, and Steve Garrigan. Divers for Sahuaro were Greg Pacheco and Bill Emrie. The JV team consists of members of the varsity who fail to qualify for a varsity meet. A unique quality about Sahuaro's JV is that it was coached by distance swimmer Bill Ullery, They will face the same schedule as varsity. S PORTS 143
