SWIMMING for the state tourney. Also undefeated was tri-captain Dave O’Brien representing the team at the States in the 157 lb. class for the second year in a row. Eddie Wilcox, the third captain, was kept out of state competition after a controversial match in the sectional tourney where he was penalized after he had won and time had run out. The swim team again had a winning season which saw the participation of girls equal to that of the boys for the first time since they began to swim on the team. They finished fourth out of ten teams a the G.B.L. Conference Championship. The first two losses came to perennial swimming powers Haverhill and Danvers who annually replenish their teams with the cities’ AAU-YMCA swimmers. A disqualification filled, controversial meet at Medford resulted in the only other loss. Four of the five wins were solid Tornado victories, the fifth was the last meet of the year where the Tornadoes took a second and third in the final relay to edge a strong Salem team by two points. 919: a school record lonely sports 21
