Ten Harvard aquamen and three coaches journeyed to Cleveland on Wednesday to participate in the NCAA swimming championships being held this weekend, Led by coaches Peter Orscheidt and John Walker, the Crimson swimmers and divers set the modest goal of just bettering their times not winning the tournament itself.
When everything was said and done at the qualifying round for divers held at Cornell University this past weekend, Crimson sophomore Jamie Greacen and junior Mike Total performed well enough to gain admission to the NCAA diving championships to be held at Cleveland State on March 24-26.
Greacen managed to place fourth in the one-meter competition and became the final qualifier in that event since only the final qualifier in that event since only the top four divers advance to the Nationals.
The other two Harvard divers, Craig Gavin and Steve Schramm, both freshmen, did not qualify for the Nationals although Schramm dove well enough to place sixth in the three-meter event and tenth in the one-meter competition.
So for these four divers, the season is this weekend. How they perform today and Saturday will determine whether they go to Cleveland for the national meet in two weeks or start planning their spring vacation instead. For at least one of them, Cleveland should be in order.
