I am curious how many of the posters here swam in high school, college, etc. and how close to the top you got. Thus the following not terribly detailed poll.

Go Redbirds!! I swam for the old guy Archie Harris from 1964 thru 1967,
Weren't the NCAA College Div (they didn't call it Div II back then) championships hosted by your school (and Archie Harris) back in '64 and '65? I swam for San Diego State back then, we won the team championship both years. But the second year four of us got a little too celebratory (alcohol induced) and went on an uninvited and very noisy midnight visit to one of the womens dormitories --- our evening ended up in the local slammer. Made the wire services but our coach had to tell the Aztec press office to cancel the welcome home at the airport since he and us bad boys wouldn't be on the plane due to a pending court appearance.
Met a young lady from Normal IL a few years later who said that our spiritedness had inspired her to transfer to San Diego State!
