...NOTEBOOK: When Sappey beat teammate Bott to the wall in the 200-yd. backstroke, it marked the Englishman's first loss in North America in that event. Because he had already swum three events and was only an unofficial entry in the race, however, Bott argues that his showing does not count and leaves his record unblemished... The second event of the afternoon was supposed to be the 1000-yd. freestyle, but Hackett, Countryman and Ted Chappell decided that they needed some practice in the 1650-yd. free as well.

...Eastern Seaboard Championships to be held in March.

Debbie Zimic, another freshman, also debuted with a splash this fall. Blessed with talent in all four strokes, Zimic has swum well in all events ranging from 500 free to 100 back. Although her real strength lies in the Individual Medleys, she will probably be called upon to help fill the gaping hole in the Crimson backstroke lineup...
