Team members sacrificed morning sleep in order to practice before school at the Northwest Suburban Y.M.C.A. pool. These practice hours, devoted to the develop- ment of form and speed, were worthwhile. The Aquaknights placed second in the St. Viator Invitational Meet and third at Glenbrook South, defeating Arlington, Forest View, and Wheeling. Captained by senior Hugh Wesler, the team finished the season with a 2-8 record. Team standouts, Bob Angstadt, Larry Salerno, Barry Timko, and Hugh Wesler, provided the basis for an optimistic outlook in conference and district com- petition. He butterfiied his way down the pool. Barry Timko executed o graceful dive.

The main cause of this upset was the numerous iniuries of team members. Sopho- mores this year mastered basic football fundamentals and practiced the basic slot-T formation. Through the many hours of hard practice on the gridiron, sophomores gained precious experience in football tactics. Coach Mudge expressed pride in his hard-working team, and through his instruction, guidance, and support, the players fought hard for success.

TO VICTORY IN SWIMMING Practice and more practice made perfect. A group of determined frosh-soph swimmers and their coaches, Mr. Barrett and Mr. Sandine, began practicing early each morning before breakfast at the Northwest Suburban Y.M.C.A. The key word of the tankers' season was improvement. More precise timing, more adequate stroking, and a smoother style were all goals toward which the young swimmers worked. Al- though their overall record was not as desirable as originally expected, the frosh-soph team's marked improvement was evi- dent at two tinal meets of the year. Prospect won both meets and established eighteen new school records. Great individual improvement among the frosh-soph swimmers was very en- couraging, and the outlook for next year promised to be more successful. Prospect gained points with a perfect back dive. .xl , cg.: , rx .f ' ' i s . Tai. a ' .- . - - - K ,-' un, ,.f ' 'L k .' ,M gifs ju, -1 Pw r I i -gg: Y ' 3'5 -'f-e, ' it 1 .Yr L' F TQ '1 r .
