'78 Tankers Surpass 3 Records , l lenbrook South Tank- ! ers of the spring of '78 really whaled, fin- ishing with an overall .700 re- cord of 7-3. The record left them in conference and third in district. The team's record is not the only proof of its strength. Six swimmers broke school re- cords. George Lillig, john Pel- louchoud, Del Waters and Mike McKevitt broke the re- cord for the 200-yard medley relay, Lynn Stetson broke the 200-yard freestyle record and Gary Hannigan set a new div- ing record. These swimmers were an outstanding group of workers, capable of working under a great deal of stress, said Mr. Bill Stetson, coach of the swim team. Throughout the season, these six proved their ability enough to go to the state meet where Stetson placed tenth in the state finals. The team named Lillig as most valuable swimmer and most improved swimmer was Bill McVay. This year's team has great possibilities. We have the largest senior class of swim- mers that there has been in a while, said Stetson. Junior Varsity swimmers while being coached by Mr. lack Simms, concluded its season with a 7-4 record and placed second in its confer- ence. Lynn Stetson, who broke the school record for the 200-yard freestyle dur- ing the 1978 spring season, swims the freestyle during an after school prac- tice. Boy's Swimmmgf59
