Rives was unable to compete in the State meet although he was a favorite. The girls' season looked much more promising with the addition of Iuniors Sheila and Ann Rembert, and Sophomore Charla Moore. Led by Sophomore Tammie Graef, and Iuniors Shannon Galvin and Sheila Rembert the girls finished se- cond at District and Regionals. I thought the girls swam as well as we could have hoped for at Regionals, said Coach Ed Lusk. But State turned out to be a dif- ferent story as no one swam very well. Sheila placed eighth in the 200 yard I.M. while Tammie finished third in the same event. vu by Casey Conley After several tense seconds of straining at the mark, Iunior Tjeerd Brink leaps off the block for the 200 yard freestyle during the District meet held Feb. 13 and 14.
