Where'd you go to school?

Swam in my first college meet when I was 15 and still a junior in HS. Bob Horn was coaching at Cerritos JC and let me swim unofficially in the outside lane against Peter Daland's mighty USC Trojans. I actually managed to beat a couple guys. Swam and played polo at San Diego State four years starting in the fall of '63. Had a lot of fun. Our workouts were open to some of the local high school stars and even some older guys. Dr. Ransom Arthur was a regular, found out later he was one of the founders of masters swimming. Also our water polo coach, Bill Phillips, who later became a standout masters swimmer was usually in the mix. We did lots of speed work, never more than about 3500 yards/day. We managed to win the NCAA Div II title twice, but partying was where we really made our mark.
