S Talk about practice! The Varsity Swimming team put in plenty. Work- outs were held Tuesday through Fri- day from 6:00 to 8:00 a.m. and also Monday through Friday 3:00 to 5:30 p.m. Saturday practice was also a must, from 8:00 to 10:00 a.m. If a per- son also was a swim member of the AAU, 110 of Walnut's swimmers werel practices were mandatory on Saturday 4:30 to 7:00 p.m. and Sunday 8:00 to 10:00 a.m. and 4:30 to 7:00 p.m. That's almost 30 hours per week. Coach Bob Woolley explained, We're willing to put out that much effort to reach our goals for the sea- son: winning league and having a good representation in CIF. New to the swim team of 1980 was a Booster Club. They were a great support to the program, plus they donated a much-needed record board for swimming. The season also brought Walnut's own invitational, which included 14 schools in all. The support of the student body and spectators was very important during swim meets because of the combined Boys' and Girls' seasons. At least six timers were needed to start a meet, but in order for a swim to count for CIF, three timers on the lane, or a total of 18 timers, were mandatory. The majority of the time these timers were volunteers from the stands. One noteworthy characteristic of the Varsity team was their closeness. Many of the players served on the Waterpolo team earlier in the year, and coupled with all those hours of practicing, closeness was under- standable. Coach Woolley helped- promote this feeling by planning activities for the team such as the trip to Los Angeles for a USC-UCLA swim meet. I wanted to show the boys how much excitement is generated in a meet of that caliber by the cheer- ing and rooting of the swimmers and spectators, remarked Mr. Woolleyg immers Given a Boost i ASTRETCHING HIS BODY AND HIS MUSCLES to swimming because it enabled the swimmer t their fullest extent, lohn Lordi dives out over the reduce his time. water. The dive was a very important aspect of Mergers!Boys' Varsity Swimming
