OSU Beaten y knocking off defending NCAA rnpion Ohio State 56-49 last drday, the Gophers have es- ished themselves as contenders this season's national cham- pionship. Ten of the 11 swimmers that scored points at the last NCAA Meet for Minnesota are competing this season and seven of them are juniors. Minnesota boasts two NCAA champions. Steve Jackman is the NCAA recordholder in the 50-yd. freestyle and has won the 100-yd. freestyle race the past two sea- sons. At the past two Big Ten Meets, he has won both sprints and also holds both sprint records. Virgil Luken took the 200-y d. breaststroke championship and finished fourth at 100 yards as a sophomore last season. He was beaten by Buckeye sophomore Bruce Norvell Saturday but should be ready for Dick Nelson and Geza Bodolay Monday night. Both Gopher relay teams made the NCAA finals. The freestyle team of John Bergman, Ralph Al- len, Dan Crocker, and Jackman tied Michigan State for the cham- pionship. Crocker transfered to Carleton but the other three are still at Minnesota. In the medley relay, Bud Erick- sen, Luken, Bergman, and Allen were fourth in the finals. This was an all-sophomore team which should be better than ever this season. Three sophomores have demon- strated that they are just as good as the Gopher veterans. Mike Stauffer has replaced Crocker in the freestyle relay. He holds the Minnesota freshman records in the sprints. Against OSU, he took a second and a third place.
