The Geneva High swimmers, as expected, showed marked improvement from previous years as a result of our new, much enlarged pool. Although winning only three meets (which is better than the past several seasons), the Panther Finmen often were not beaten until the last event. Co-captain Gary Voss was responsible for the breaking of three school records: the 100 yard butterfly and the 200 and 400 yard freestyles. In the Class B. sectionals, Gary placed fifth and sixth in the 100 yard butterfly and the 200 yard freestyle respectively. Also representing the Geneva team in the sectionals were Scott Smith, a third in diving, Tom Currie, sixth in the 100 yard butterfly, and the medley relay team, composed of Bob Myles, Murray Heaton, Tom Currie, and Joe Tandle, came in sixth. 26 The Senior Finmen.

A terrific offense and defense sparked the Big Red to big victories as they completed the season with an average edge of 21 points every game. Herb Sellers paced the cagers offensively with a 17 point average, while Don Williams and Steve Lahr monopolized the rebounds. As the 5 starters all averaged more than 12 points every game, the Panthers boasted of great team effort and versatility. In the sectionals Geneva continued its fine playing and running as they defeated Irondequoit in the pre-quarterfinals. Corning East in the quarterfinals, and Monroe in the semifinals, before bowing finally to a tremendous Brockport team in the finals. Leaving this season after helping Coach Spader to a 37-3 record over the past two years will be the five outstanding seniors: Rich Blue, Henry Howard, Herb Sellers, Donnie Williams, and Dave Ferris. 28
