3 4 Aqua Jocks The never ending battle for victory! Who else would handle it well then the Sheridan High School’s, one and only. Boy's Swim team! The fearless Team Captain, Jim Benepe helped unite the team along with Coach Kirk as they strive for the glorifing goal of VICTORY! Although the glory of winning sounds good, it takes training and a great output of dedication. These dedicated young men come to practice at the time that most students are still in bed. they arrive at 6:30 a.m., to practice in the cold uninviting water. After school from 3:30 to 6:00 p.m. they meet again to swim, lift weights and train. All together it is estimated that they swim 10 miles a day! Five days a week and sometimes more. Making their big SPLASH in the 80-81 year the Swim Team won 15 meets with only a loss of 4. The team won the Lander Relays, took second in the Cheyenne Invitations, and First Place here at the Sheridan Invitationals. The team also won second at State. As Coach Kirk feels. It was great to have such a high ranking in the State. After loosing 7 All Stater's last year, the team did remarkable in staying in the high ranks. The second State Champs who won the 200 yard Medley Relay were, Tom Hudson, Jim Benepe, Bruce Johnson and Dave Brisch. At the 100 yard Breast Stroke, the winner, Jim Benepe. In all. the team did a terrific job! We now look towards the New Age of the Aqua Jocks! I. Immediate front: Tom Hudson takes the head start. 2. Bob Hancock pauses for a picture. 3.
