Show Winter Sports Utah sent swimmers to NCAA Meet where, for the first time, they placed. Left to Right, Row One: Alan Peterson, Joe Jacobson, Mike Wallace, Edward Rogers, Dale Perrin, Jackie Stanton, Bob Bell. Row Two: Jay Kirk, Rodney Reed, Tom Thorn, Russ Sneddon, Dave Taylor, Dick Lewis, Darwin Killpack, George Milne, Coach Don Reddish. This year's swimming team, coached by Don Reddish, was the finest team to ever be turned out of the University of Utah. They scored new varsity records in every event but two. The season started on January 11, with Utah winning the decision over Idaho State College. The next two meets were with Utah State, Utah winning both times. On February 8, the University of Idaho lost to the Ute Paddlers after which time Utah went on to garner first place in the Western Division Meet. On February 22, Idaho State was again the victim, as were the University of Colorado and the Air Force Academy later. The only disappointment was the loss to Denver in the Conference Meet. 166 |
