McDonough set pool and meet records in both his events; Jed Graef of Princeton met a new meet and pool mark in the 200-yard backstroke; and Peter Fogasy, a Hungarian now at North Carolina state, broke his own 1961 EISL and Yale pool records in the 200-yard breaststroke...
Sophomore phenomenon Jed Graef shattered the pool record, as expected, by more than three seconds to poet a time of 2:01.4. But no one expected him to heat Pringle by only a touch. The Crimson junior knocked more than four seconds from his previous best to post a time of 2:01.6, followed by Welch's third place time of 2:02.0. The event was the fastest backstroke race ever swum in dual meet competition...
...Bill Zentgraf shaved half a second from his university mark of 2:05.1 and shattered Yale great Bill 's year-old pool record. Graef was supposed to give him a real battle, but after Zentgraf churned off the first 50 in 23.2 and the hundred in 50.3, Graef was practically out of the race. He finished some two seconds behind Zentgraf's new standard...
...backstroke, Princeton has the best one-two punch in the East, and probably the nation, with Jed Graef and Tom Welch. Graef, only a sophomore, has already posted the second fastest 200 time in the world, a sizzling 2:00.1. Welch has not yet matched Crimson captain Bob Kaufmann's pool record of 2:03.2, but his season best of 2:03.8 makes him a threat to top it tonight...
Princeton's big weakness is the freestyle. The Crimson can probably take first place in all the freestyle events, but Graef is a possible threat in both the 220 and the 4-40. Zentgraf's best time in the 220 is 2:05.1 against Navy; Graef has swum 2:05.2, also against the Middies. Either could easily break the pool mark of 2:05.0, set last year by Yale star Bill Chase...
