Seven from Shelton High
Swimmers state-bound
Seven' members of the
Highclimber boys' swimming
team will travel to the University
of Wasllington tomorrow to
compete in the state swimming
and diving championships.
Qualifying for the honor are
seniors Allan Eaton, Dave Wicken
and Doug Coleman; juniors Eric
Valley, Lloyd German and Barry
Cochran; and sophomore John
Coulon.
Valley, second in both the
200 and 500 free in district,
represents perhaps the Climbers'
best hope for individual honors.
He'll be going in the 100 and
200 frees and will also anchor the
Climbers' 400 free relay effort.
Eric's 1:49.8 school-record
performance in the 200 a week
ago Saturday in district currently
ranks 16th best in the state, and
Climber Coach Doug Hanna
figures it's unlikely all 15 ahead
of Valley will be entered in the
.event this weekend.
"What's more," said Hanna,
"district was only the third time
Eric swam the event all year -
and the first time he had any
competition at all. Really, there's
no telling what he can do."
Only the top 12 finishers in
Friday's prelims go on to the
finals.
Valley's best in the 100 free,
50.6 - another Climber record -
is also competitive, said his coach.
"If he can get it down under 50
seconds - and I think he can,"
said Hanna, "-then he could
well make the top 12 in that
event, too."
Teaming with Valley in the
400 free relay will be Eaton
(52.9), Coleman (54.0) and
Gorman (54.8). Gorman beat out
Barry Cochran for the third-led
spot in a time trial just last week.
With Cochran in, the group's best
time this year was a 3:32.5. The
Climber record, set two years ago,
is 3:30.8 - and ttanna figures
something in that neck of the
woods will be required for a
Climber placement in the event
this weekend.
Shelton's other individual
performer at state, senior Wicken
in the lO0 breast, shattered his
own school record with a fine
1:05.5 earlier this season and has
improved nearly two full seconds
over last year.
"Dave's capable of a
l:04-something," said his coach.
"But so much depends on how he
feels this weekend when he hits
the water. You see, the breast is
kinda funny. One day you can
have your stroke down perfect
and the next it'll be off -- and
having it off just a little can make
a whole world of difference in
your time."
Hanna added that it concerns
him most because the UW pool
has no warm-up area. The
swimmers can't tune up their
strokes prior to the heat. "They
just have to hope they've got their
stroke down perfect," said the
Climber mentor.
Shelton's other state event
will be the 200 medley relay.
Sophomore John Coulon will be
filling in for Valley so Eric can
swim the 200 free and 100 free
both, but Hanna advises that the
team won't give up much in the
bargain.
John's time in the backstroke,
about 29.0, is just about as good
as Eric's, really," he said. "So we
could surprise some people there
if we put it together."
Wicken will swim the
breaststroke leg, and his personal
best is 29.0 - very fast, said his
coach, considering the fact that
the breast is supposed to be far
and away the slowest leg of the
event.
The butterfly leg will be
manned by Cochran, with a best
of 26.6, while Eaton (23.0) will
anchor with the freestyle sprint.
String together their PR splits,
advised Hanna, and the boys
should be able to record about a
1:46 in the event. That would be
a varsity record, by 1.8 seconds.
Do a little better than their
previous bests, he added, and they
might crack the top dozen. "A
1:45 could do it," said Hanna.
Friday's preliminaries are
scheduled to get underway at 1
p.m. The finals will begin at the
same time Saturday.
