  • Freshman year in high school. We were the defending Newark (NJ) City League Champions and I was home getting over the measles. I was so disappointed not to be able to swim. My father, who had attended most of my meets, had gone to the championship meet to cheer on the team. About half way through the meet he called my mother and told her to bring me down to the meet. I was not feeling one hundred percent but I got to swim on the freestyle relay that placed third.
