1980 saw Loara ' s first co-ed swimming and diving team. The California Interscholastic Federation made the deci- sion to intermix the men ' s and women ' s teams. Jackie Hus- baund, Loara ' s award-winning coach, felt that the co-ed team worked out fine. The one problem was that the meets lasted twice as long because all 40 events had to take place at one meet. Some of the weaknesses of the team this year were that many members dropped out because of other obligations. It ' s getting more difficult each year to find people. , says Coach Husband. We had a very talented team this year. Top members included Erik Price, junior; Don Schneider, junior; Jack Seymour, senior; John Kane, junior; Joel Clark, senior; and Laura Neff, sophomore. Divers included Leslie Cornelius, Kari Silverman, seniors; Alan Scearce, senior, and Cindy Leon, junior. Our top events were the relay, 50 and 100 free swimming, and the breast stroke. Many school . records, including the breaststroke, the backstroke, frees- tyle, 4x100 freestyle, and the relay were broken. [1.

Outstanding swimmers included Tom Martindale, soph- : more; Victor Bennett, sophomore; and Greg VantHul, iophomore. The team was fairly small and was made up Tiostly of sophomores. The co-ed decision by the C.l.F. had an effect on the ).V. earn as well as the varsity team. There were three girls on he team. These girls added a great deal to the team. says Zoach Husband.
