Dave Brumwell lowered the 400-yd. individual medley record he set last year at the Easterns to 4:13.301 in the afternoon heats and reached the six man finals. He was unable to equal that time in the championship finals and ended up 6th in 4:15.046. Bob Atkinson of Penn became the first double winner of the meet as he added a record breaking 4:05.076 performance to his earlier 200 IM record first...
Penn's Bob Atkinson, who had broken the Eastern record in the event in his afternoon trial, shaved a few more fractions of a second off that mark in winning the evening's final in 1:55.006. Yntema and Brumwell were unable to keep pace with the Penn star, but they finished a strong three-four. Yntema swam the best time of his career at 1:57.622 while Brumwell faded just a bit but still swam second best in his career with a 1:57.759 clocking...
Dave Brumwell was touched out by Penn's Bob Atkinson in the 200-yd. individual medley, but the sophomore lowered his University record to 1:58.7 in the process. Hess Yntema continued to look unbeatable in the 200-yd, butterfly as the freshman shaved another half a second off his Harvard standard with an excellent 1:54.5 swim. Another frosh, John Craig took second with a career best 1:58.4 in one of the many fine performances turned in by number-two or three Harvard swimmers...
...free could shape up as a close race with Mitchell and Penn's Ted Kriebel within a second or two of each other, but Harvard's Tim Neville is a strong favorite in the 50-yd. free. The 100-yd. free will probably go to Mitchell, but Kriebel or Atkinson, both of whom swam superb legs on a botched Penn 400-yd. free relay in Harvard's 58-55 upset win last year, could...
Harvard's Hess Yntema should remain undefeated in his specialty, the 200-yd. butterfly, but either Dave Brumwell or Yntema could be pressed by Atkinson in the 200-yd. individual medley. Brumwell, however, is a sure bet in his specialty, the 200-yd. breast where a Crimson sweep appears to be a strong possibility...
