Swimming Varsity Boys Kept Their Top Notch By Sarah Massengill This past year the Boys Varsity swim- mers literally beat the pants off of their competitors. With the many returning swimmers and the many new recruits, they swam to an out- standing season. Keith Opstad stat- ed, We have the tools and the talents which make us a great team. Still, we really worked hard to perfect them. Just about every day the boys were found perfecting their strokes, swim- ming up to ten hours a week under the coaching of Mr. Moore. This was my first year with Mr. Moore as my coach and all I can say is that he was wonderful, added Todd Ogi. Mr. Moore projected a positive attitude which forced them to try to do their very best. At the beginning of the season Rob Miller We supported and congratulated each other whether we won or lost. - Brent Alfonzo predicted, Since we have a lot of good swimmers, we should do well this year. Rob's prediction became reality, and they began the season with an undefeated re- cord thanks to the hard work-outs and team spirit. Also, we must give spe- cial note to the team captains, Ray Un- derberg, Mike Jacoway, and Mike Napierala, because according to Coach Moore, These guys are excellent lead- ers and the source of our team's enthusiasm! ln the future, the boys hope to, Hswim faster, destroy Mt. Carmel, and place in the top three in C.l.F. With the excellent train- ing and outstanding performances, bright promises of the future suddenly material- ized in the present.
