The highlight of the early swim season for Del Campo was their fourth consecutive victory in the prestigious Davis Relays. Additionally, the Cougars have won this meet five out of the last six years. The tankmen were led by victorious 400 breastroke and 200 medley relay teams, with the breaststroke relay being in record time. Guiding the Highly Regarded Cougars to the number two ranking in the area were Dan Camilli in the sprints and butterfly, Jim Hitchcock and Ken Reardon in the breaststroke, Karl Grubaugh in the backstroke, and Steve Zirbel and Russ Smith in the distance freestyle. Smith, a freshman, was also D.C.'s top performer in the individual medley. Coach Wayne Geri praised the Cougars as one of his best teams ever and expected them to end Rio Americano's dominance of swimming at the Capital Valley Conference championships at the end of April.
