...Hackett and Harvard's wild finish in the 800 free relay last night. Or consider the unfortunate fact that Geoff Seelen banged his head on the starting block while pulling himself up for the start of the 100 backstroke after looking like a shoo-in for his first Eastern gold, and consequently had to settle for a silver...
...breast and a certain medal from butterflier Bill Specht. Specht, however, is unshaven (he's saving it for the NCAA's) and took only fourth in last night's 100--"his best event" according to coach Farely. So he may not be able to swipe the gold in the 200 fly final--which might include Harvard hero Mike Coglin and hopefully will see Campari Knoepfler and Dan Menichella in the field...
Disappointment was nowhere to be found after Crimson British sophomore phenom Mike Coglin ripped to a blazing 1:52.80 in the 200-yd. individual medley to bring home the gold. Coglin's record-setting time, which earned him a trip to scenic Cleveland State (site of NCAAs later this month), left everyone else in the race in his wake by almost a full two seconds. Princeton managed to hold on to a tenuous 79-71 lead, but the Tigers were hurt again by the fact that senior captain Bruce Kone, after missing a month of the season because...

The Crimson's steady duo of Steve Schramm and Jamie Greacen racked up 33 points by landing second and third, respectively. There had been a great deal of concern over whether Schramm, who hit his head on the board two days ago, would be fit to dive. But the former New Jersey state champion dispelled all fears when he nailed his first two dives...
