Houston, which contended for the
National League West title until the
final days of the season in 1979, also got

ATHARVARD FOR NCAA
MEET:
Tankers hope to make a splash
BY JON MORELAND
Ten Michigan swimmers, including
junior All-American Fernando Canales,
have splashed-down in the Ann Arbor of
the East - Cambridge, Massachusetts
- for the NCAA championships.
The Wolverines will be trying to bat-
tle back from the disappointing Big Ten
Championships, when they finished a
not-so-strong second to Indiana in
Michigan's Matt Mann Pool.
Canales has qualified in four events
- the 50-, 100-, 200-, and 500-meter
freestyle competitions - and is the
Wolverine tankers' best bet to bring
home an individual national champion-
ship.

First year coach Bill Farley ex-
pressed disappointment at only having
ten swimmers in this year's finals, heldu
on the Harvard campus.
"We should have had a lot more
qualifiers than we did," said Farley.
"Indiana had a helluva meet (at the Big.
Ten's), but we never should have lost to
them by 150 points." Michigan placed
second to Indiana by the score 752 -
602/2.
Also representing the Wolverines are
sophomore John Spaid in the 200- and
500-meter breaststroke, junior Robert
Murray and senior captain Paul Grif-
fith and the 50- and 100-freestyle,
sophomore Tom Ernsting in the 100-
and 200-breaststroke, and junior Robert
Lazar and senior Dave Price in the 200-
breaststroke.
Noticeably absent from this list are
any of the Wolverine relay teams.
Almost unbelievably, none of
Michigan's strong relays qualified for
the meet, most notably the 800-freestyle
relay.

In the Big Ten meet, this crew set a
conference record except for one small
detail - the anchor man jumped too
early at the beginning of his stint. This
disqualified the relay team, and left its
collective members in Ann Arbor this
weekend.
Michigan's strongest showing in the
meet is expected to come from its
diving troops.eThe Dick Kimball-led
squad's three representatives are Ron
Merriot, Kevin Machemer, and Ken
Vigiletti. Kimball is notorious for
producing a strong team, and this
year's squad is no exception.
