The Associated Press

Steve Busse celebrates freestyle victory Friday.

CANTON, Ohio - St. Xavier's 200 medley relay team and Moeller's Steve Busse captured state championships on the first day of the Ohio high school swimming and diving championships at Branin Natatorium here Friday night.

' St. Xavier was fifth and Anderson was sixth in the boys team standings after the first day of competition. St. Xavier coach Jim Brower couldn't be happier. · "Winning the first event of the meet is great," Brower said. "Tomorrow's our strongest day. We've got five individuals and a strong free relay team. Andy (Kendrick, a member of the relay team) is also third in the diving aft~£ the prelims."

St. X led from start to finish in bringing home its state title with freshman Mike Andrews taking the lead i'n the first leg, the backstroke. "It's just great to be here," Andrews said. "Leading the whole way is really exciting, especially with this crowd." "This was especially sweet for me," said Brian Sheehan, who kept the lead in the breaststrok~. "I won the spot in•a swim-off against another teammate last week." Senior co-captain John Kathman held off a strong charge from St. Francis' Steve Mayes in the butterfly, the third leg of the event. "I knew St. Francis had a strong swimmer," Kathman said. "But we had a great lead. I was confident." __ · Kendrick, who also advanced to today's finals in the diving, finished off the victory in front of the noisy packed house. "I'm always nervous when we have the lead," Kendrick said. "If we lose, 'who's fault is it?' I've never lost the lead yet, and I wasn't going to

tonight." Busse's winning time was 20.79 and Johnson's 21.01. The start of the race was twice delayed because of crowd noise. ' "I got fired up just listening to the crowd," said Busse, who will go for a second state title today in the 100 free. "It's just awesome." Lakota's Johnson swam his best time against Busse after getting a great start. "My turn was tough," Johnson said. "I came off the wall and knew I had a chance. I thought I might have won, but that's my best time. · It was great race." Anderson's Wharton finished second to Yellow Springs' Matt Brunsman in the 200 individual medley. Wharton was less than a half second behind after leading most of the race. "I ,ljlew he was gpipg to come

on strong," Wharton said. "I tried to hold him off but didn't quite make it. My time was good and it feels great." Turpin, Seton and McNicholas were 5-6-7 in the girls team standings. Anderson freshman Angie Rosser finished fifth in the 50-free. "It was a great race," said Rosser. "The difference between third and sixth was just a fingertip. I'm looking forward to tomorrow (400 free relay)." Silbersack will try again for a"' title today in the 100 butterfly, where her district time was a full two seconds faster than anyone in the field at state. Girl• team .core•-1.

Budding swimmer just might be able to meet tall order By Dave Schutte Post contributor

Dan Ragland stares in disbelief every time he sees Steve Busse, a 6-foot-6, 230-pound senior, walking the halls at Moeller High School. It's not that Ragland, the Crusaders' secondyear basketball coach, has never seen a student with such physical attributes, but the fact that the 17-year-old Busse opted for swimming rather than football or basketball. "It's unusual for an athlete Steve's size to excel in swimming," former Sycamore swimming coach Larry Lyons said. "The first time I saw Steve was last year in a meet at Sycamore, and I knew when he stepped onto the blocks that he was the big moose who everybody said could sprint like crazy." What Lyons observed at that meet left a lasting impression. "Right away, I could tell that Steve would be a factor in the 50 freestyle and also in the relays for Moeller," Lyons said. "As it turned out, Steve finished second in the 50 at the state meet and also anchored both relay teams." Lyons, who now coaches the Anderson Barracudas, of which Busse is a member, predicts his new student could accomplish an unprecedented feat. "No high school swimmer has ever gone under 20 seconds in the 50," Lyons said. "I may be wrong, but I think Steve will be the first to do it this year, and it could possibly come at the state meet." It's striking that Lyons, one of Cincinnati's most respected swimming coaches, speaks so highly of Busse's potential. It wasn't until last summer that Busse started swimming competi':.ively at the Anderson Hills Swim Club. Until Lyons took over recently, Busse had little or no coaching. "Steve was torn between football and swimming," Lyons said. "Because of his size and athletic ability, everyone assumed that he would play football rather than a swim." Busse's father, Pete, also was surprised when his son choose swimming. "I played football in high school and enjoyed knocking people down, but Steve is the opposite," Pe~e Busse said. "Steve played football at Moeller for three seasons and started last year as an offensive lineman, but this year he decided to stick with swimming." Many refer to Busse as the "gentle giant," and his father agrees that's a correct assessment. "Steve just isn't a mean person, and he's not vicious enough for football," Pete Busse said. "Swimming is more to his liking, and I hope he does well." Lyons said Busse is nowhere near his potential. "Steve's a kid who's fun, frustrating and exhilarating all at the same time," Lyons said. "I don't think he understands how good he can become or what it takes to get there. There's no telling how

Moeller High senior Steve Busse apparently has the potential to be a top-class amateur swimmer.

far he can go." Despite Busse's lack of experience and development as a swimmer, Lyons predicts he will become one of the country's most heavily recruited high school swimmers within the next few months. "The colleges are looking for fast kids who are undeveloped and physically big," Lyons said. "Most quality high school swimmers have been performing for seven or eight years and have reached their potential. Steve's the type of kid who will continue to develop and improve, and that's exactly what the colleges are looking for.'' Last week, Busse qualified for the U.S. Open Swimming Championships in Indianapolis, where he finished 24th in the 50-meter freestyle against a tough international field. "This may not seem like much of an accomplishment, but Steve's performance was outstanding for a high school kid," Lyons said. "This was his first international meet, and he was swimming against some of the best in the world.'' Lyons is working on training and conditioning Busse for the 100 and 200 events. "Steve is light years ahead of where he was last year," Lyons said. "I think he's capable of going longer distances, although many colleges would be satisfied with him doing only the 50."

SPORTS A tale of two divers

Sycamore's Dean Panaro and Moeller's Matt Borman are among this country's best

By Steve Hyman

In many ways this week's Southwest Ohio Swimming and Diving Classic was typical of every other dive meet this year. When all was said and done, the same three names stood atop the standings. Sycamore's Dean Panaro, St. X's Andy Kendrick, '"" ·and Moeller's Matt Bonnan.

While he won't commit to anything, he doesn't rule anything out. Deep down, you can't help but think that what Dean or Matt won't say out of respect to their friends and competitors Is the desire to be Olympic teammates. After all the years training together, It might just re-unite them after they go to the colleges of their choosing. Until then, there is other business to be taken care of. Specifically, each and every dive that has to be made somewhere down the road. Maybe watching Dean Panaro dive says It all. As he makes his way over to the the board he chats with other divers. Even as he climbs onto the board he claps for the preceding diver. Then the concentration turns on and a stillness comes over him. If there Is an opponent for Dean his name Is not Matt or Andy. It Is Dean Panaro. The dives themselves are Incredible. The time It takes to blink an eye translates to more athletic effort for a diver than the spectator can comprehend. In a way. the dives Dean, Matt, and Andy perform are so above and beyond the competition at local meets it Is almost comic. Whether they get to where they want to go or not. they deserve a round of applause for what they have already given us and each other.

As usual,

Unusual amount of local swimming talent By Steve Hymon

Four area schools have just recently started their competitive swim seasons. Sycamore, Ursuline. and Moeller have been homes to top swim · teams for several years and beg the sportswriter's favorite question of whether or not they. can do it again. CCDS, not always known as a swimming powerhouse, has put together a boys team that Is making its mark upon the city's standings. Here. then. is what to expect for the 1988~ 1989 season: SYCAMORE -Coach Mark Sullivan In his first year coaching the boys team, has not wasted any time in getting around to doing what Sycamore swimmers usually do - win. Sycamore was 1-1 before winning last weekend's Turpin Invitational by beating seven other area teams. Even better ·news is that the Aviators are . winning despite only returning three swimmers and two divers . that made It to districts last year. · Sullivan feels that the "lack of • real depth is pretty evident" with the team not winning many races.

Mlfway point of the race 42-hundredths of a second behind Brunsman, of Yellow Springs. : The defending state champ then put the race away with a 29J8 leg on the breaststroke. Farnham clocked 32.76 on the leg and finished in 1:52.07- 2.61 seconds behind Brunsman, who missed a meet record by 49-hunckedths of a second. Guist, on the other hand, clocked a career-best 21.41 in the 50 freestyle. Unfortunately for him, Hawken senior Greg Harper w,as 25-hundredths of _a second faster. ,~~."I swam my race and I swam as hard and as fast as I could," said Guist. "But I guess on this day he (Harper) was just a little faster. '~I came into the meet just hoping to get into the final six in the. 50. I did that and finished second, so I'm very happy from. that standpoint. ''And I'm very excited about

my chances in the fly. That's the race I really thought I had a shot at winning coming intn the meet." Firestone senior Jeff Pillars finished third in the 50 freestyle with a lifetime-best 21.58. "We were very pleased with Jeff's effort," said Firestone coach Tim Davis. "But we weren't happy at all with what happened to our medley relay team. "We swam Jeff on it in the prelims, but then two minutes before the finals an official told Jeff he couldn't swim on it because he didn't swim on it at the district meet. "We had listed him as an alternate on it at the district meet and then, when he only qualified in one individual event at the district, entered him on the medley relay at the scratch meeting. "Everything went fine and he swam in the preliminaries. Then they pulled that on us right before the finals and we had to get Ed Parish out of the stands to

swim." But all of that became elementary when the Falcon foursome, which had reached the championship finals with a 1:39.94 clocking in the prelims, was disqualified for an illegal dolphin kick out of the turn on the breaststroke leg. Cincinnati St. Xavier clocked 1:34.71 to set a meet record in the event. The previous best was 1:34.85 by Hawken in 1988. St. Thomas Aquinas' medley relay squad of Doug Kling, C.J. Phillips, Chris Beinlich and Jason Bing won the consolation finals in 1:39.83 to finish seventh. St. Xavier sophomore Joe Hudepohl set a meet record in the 200 freestyle when he clocked 1:38.84. Louisville's Ginger Kroft's eighth-place finish in the 50 freestyle was the highest placing recorded by an area swimmer in the girls' competition. Kent Roosevelt's Shelly Mendiola recorded the highest score in the first round of girls' diving competition.

The Rough Rider senior posted 196.30 for the five dives and had an 8-tenths of a point lead over Kathy Carboy of Cincinnati Anderson heading into this afternoon's final round of six dives. It begins at 1: 30 p.m.

Xavier reasserts its strength in sectional swimming meet By Doug Uhlenbrock Post contributor

St. Xavier showed its supremacy in high school swimming Friday night with a convincing preformance at the Cincinnati Sectional at Anderson. St. Xavier has 13 state titles to its credit and contends yearly for the state championship. At the forefront of the St. Xavier push for a 14th state crown is a sophomore who didn't even compete for the Bombers last season. Joe Hudepohl set two individual pool records Friday in the 100- and 200-yard freestyle events, ·and also had a hand in

another pool record in the 400 free relay. · In the 200 freestyle, Hudepohl led by a half-length for the first 70 yards before leaving the rest of the field in his wake, winning in one minute, 42.45 seconds. "I felt pretty good tonight," Hudepohl said. "In the 200, I went out taking it easy because I was concentrating on working on the second half of my race:: Though St. X's state championship hopes don't ride exclu·sively on Hudepohl's shoulders, coach Jim Brower sees his swimmer's talent. ·~He is one of the best at this

level for his age," Brower said.

Reardon's visualization exercises also helped Friday when Worthington set a state record in the 200 medley relay. Other girls winners Saturday included Shannon Handley of Columbus East in 1-meter diving, Tina Silbersack of Cincinnati McNicholas in the 100 butterfly, Liz Nelson of the Columbus School for Girls in the 100 freestyle, and Susan Wolfle of Bowling Green in the 500 freestyle.

Boys winners were Dean Panaro of Cincinnati Sycamore in diving, Thomas Carey of Springfield Central in the 100 butterfly, Steve Busse of Cincinnati Moeller in the 100 freestyle, Jake Harms of Toledo St. Francis in the 500 freestyle, John Lardas of Hawken in the 100 backstroke, Chris Vondran of Elida in the 100 breaststroke and the Cincinnati Country Day 400 freestyle relay team.

Sheris set records Kraus gets third, White gets national mark By CHRIS TOMASSON Repository sports writer

When Massillon swimmer Sheri Kraus awoke Saturday, the butterflies in her stomach felt more like wasps. "I was a wreck before the preliminaries," Kraus said. "I kept thinking about not being nervous, but that just made me more nervous, I think the prelims in the morning are more nerve racking because you've got to worry about qualifying for the finals." Despite her big-league jitters, Kraus managed to post the thirdbest qualifying time in the 100 breaststroke on the final day of the high school state swimming meet. Saturday night at C.T. Branin Natatorium, a more relaxed Kraus finished third in the state final. But don't think the Massillon junior didn't improve. Her morning time was 1:07.22. Her finals time was a school-record 1:06.41. "We're worried more about time than placing," said Massillon coach David Rotthoff. "That's the best she's ever swam. I'm so proud of her." Defending champion Maggie West of Springfield Central Catho-

lie jumped out in front early and won the 100 breaststroke with a time of 1:04.94. Kelly Leaman of Centerville was second in 1:05.54. Kraus' finish gave Massillon 12 points, placing the Tigers 27th in the girls team standings. Worthington won the team championship with 140 points, while Gates Mills Hawken, which had won five straight titles, was second with 108.5 points. Upper Arlington was third with 87 points. Hawken did defend its title in the boys competition with 132 points. Akron Firestone was third with 95 points, while Cincinnati Xavier was fourth with 94. Kraus was the only Stark County girl to score Saturday. The only Stark boy to dent the scoreboard was St. Thomas Aquinas senior Chuck Moore, who was ninth in the 100 butterfly. "This is the third time I've been to state, and the first time I've scored, so I'm happy," Moore said. "This is a good way to end my career here.'' North Canton's Gordy Woolbert, the top boys swimmer in Ohio, had to miss the meet because of a shoulder injury. However, the top girls swimmer in Ohio was on

hand, and she didn't disappoint in the least. Worthington senior Sheri White, who won the 200 freestyle Friday, capped off her high school career by winning the 100 backstroke and swimming the anchor leg on Worthington's victorious 400 freestyle relay team. In the backstroke, White set a national record with a clocking of 56.00. But to White it's simply a personal best since she held the previous record of 56.03, set at last year's state meet. "Actually, I wanted to break 56.00," White said. "The scoreboard said 55.99, but then they rounded the time up to 56.00. Oh well." As far as unseating Hawken for the team title, White credited Worthington's . Jim Reardon. "He's our sports psychologist," White said. "He's taught us to visualize everything that could happen in a meet. Before every race, we visualize winning. And before my leg in the freestyle relay, even though we had a good lead, I visualized that I was even with the other swimmer." â€˘SWIMMING C-8

IHIGH SCHOOLS Firestone coach thinks his team has chance, if . .. By Bill Lilley Beacon Journal staff writer

The Firestone boys' swimming team's preseason goal of a top-5 finish at the state meet , looked more like a wild dream ~than an attainable achievement ~just six weeks ago. Teacher strikes like the 2week one the Akron Public Schools suffered through in January have a tendency to disrupt - sometimes even disintegrate - athletic programs for that season. Firestone was in that position as the Falcons jumped from pool to pool in an attempt to find enough training time. But if there's one thing Coach Eric Smith has learned in his first year of coaching it's to expect the unexpected from his team. Last Saturday the Falcons delivered a shocking testimony to their resiliency. They won their 12th consecutive district title- and by a 151-point margin over runner-up Wooster. So what can the surprising Falcons do for an encore at this weekend's state swimming and diving championships at C.T. Branin Natatorium in Canton? Smith can't wait to find out. "A top-5 finish is going to be tough, but it's possible and these guys made a believer out of me last weekend that they can do whatever they want to do," said Smith, a 3-time state meet competitor during his swimming days at Firestone under former coach Mike Wilcox. "We've got very good depth. We've got at least one swimmer in every event except the 100-

STATE SWIMMING yard backstroke and 100 breaststroke. "We've also got some very good potential big-point scorers. Our 200 medley relay is seeded third and our freestyle relay is seeded fourth. "Junior Chris Akins is seeded third in the 100 butterfly, and senior Brent Ferguson is seeded second in the 50 freestyle and first in the 100 freestyle. "We're expecting Brent to have some great time drops. Last week he wore three suits, was unshaven and wasn't fully tapered or rubbed down. "This week we'll go for it all for him and everybody else." The Falcons also are counting on senior Bob Violette ( 200 individual medley, 500 freestyle), sophomore David Ohler (50 freestyle), junior Jeff Pillars (100 freestyle) and sophomore diver John Butcher to score. "Hawken has a lot of talent and has to be the pre-meet favorite to win the boys' championship again," said Smith, who works part-time as a clerk in his father's law office. "But Hawken has made mistakes in past meets and who knows what could happen if everything fell into place for us.'' Hudson sophomore Jamie Farnham won the the 200 IM in the Cleveland district event and is seeded third. He also qualified in the 100 backstroke. The girls' team title also appears to be destined to end up at

Niki Adams . Kent Roosevelt star Hawken again this year, but Coach Joe Shehan of Canton District ch~mpion Kent Rooseveh thinks his squad can break into the top 10. Perhaps more impressive is senior Niki Adams' attempt to become the first swimmer in the school's history to win a state title.

Adams won the 200 IM and 100 backstroke in last Friday's

district affair. Her best shot at a state title, however, is in the 200 1M as the 100 backstroke features defending champion and na twnal high school record hollller Sherri White of Worthington. "I'm looking for a substantial drap in Niki's IM time," said Sbf'han, "and that should put her at the top. ..We'd also like to have the freestyle re]ay team of MeUssa Backer, Meilani Smith, Jen Horak and Nikii reach top six and receive All-America honors!'

SPORTS A tale of two divers

Sycamore's Dean Panaro and Moeller's Matt Borman are among this country's best ·

By Steve Hyman -; In many ways- this week's Southwest Ohio Swimming and Diving Classic was typical of every other dive meet this year. When all was said and done, the same three name~ stood atop the standings. Sycamore's Dean Panaro, St. X's Andy Kendrick, ·and Moeller's Matt Borman. The fact is that while one would expect these three to be rival divers from rival schools, their common skills and poise seem to have transcended that. What you will flnd is -three friends pushing themselves and each other to be better divers. Not only are they better divers because of it, but they are by far the best young divers in not only · the Cincinnati area but the country as well. For Instance, Panaro won the dive meet this - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Moment• of truth; Dean Panaro, left, and Matt Borman, right - - - - - - - - - - - - - - weekend and set a meet. record of 595.9 points.

as Matt and Andy do well also. Matt is hopeful of having the really good meet it will take to break the top three or, even better, as he says it "the top two." Where do these guys see themselves down the road? Dean is looking at the Olympic team for the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain. If he doesn't make that, he feels he is young enough to try for the '96 summer games. Matt is shooting for a diving scholarship that he hopes to get next year. While he won't commit to anything, he doesn't rule anything out. Deep down, you can't help but think that what Dean or Matt won't say out of respect to their friends and competitors is the desire to be Olympic teammates. After all the years training together, It might just re-unite them after they go to the colleges of their choosing. Until then, there is other business to be taken care of. Specifically, each and every dive that has to be made somewhere down the road. Maybe watching Dean Panaro dive says it all. As he makes his way over to the the board he chats with other divers. Even as he climbs onto the board he claps for the preceding diver. Then the concentration turns on and a stillness comes over him. If there is an opponent for Dean his name Is not Matt or Andy. It is Dean Panaro. The dives themselves are Incredible. The time it takes to blink an eye translates to more athletic effort for a diver than the spectator can comprehend. In a way, the dives Dean, Matt, and Andy perform are so above and beyond the competition at local meets It is almost comic. Whether they get to where they want to go or not. they deserve a round of applause for what they have already given us and each ,... ~ t .........

Freshman helps St. Xavier dominate district showdown By John Costello Post contributor

Two relative newcomers to swimming and a Yellow Springs High School junior turned in the top individual performances with double victories Friday night. But St. Xavier's depth provided a flurry of points as the Aqua-Bombers nearly doubled the point total of its nearest competitor in the Southwest District Swimming Championships at the Keating Natatorium. The Bombers racked up 221lh points in their final tuneup before next week's state meet. Country Day turned in a strong performance to finish second with 114 points. Anderson, Moeller and Waynesville rounded out the top five. St. X freshman Michael Andrews led off the 200-yard medley relay that put the Bombers on top after the first event, a position they never relinquished. In the ninth event, the 100yard backstroke, Andrews shaved 1.2 seconds off his sectional qualifying time to nip Dayton Oakwood's Jason Campbell by 12-hundredths of a second. "I'm new to the team - I really look up to the upperclassmen and co-captains," Andrews said. "It's very exciting to be going to the state meet in two events as a freshman." Moeller senior Steve Busse won both the 50- and 100-yard freestyle events with slower times than he logged last week at the sectional meet. Although a number of people have been impressed with Busse's outstanding times in only his second season of year-round competitive swimming, Busse felt his performance was lacking. "I'm a little worried," the 6-6,

Swimming 220-pound former varsity football player said. "My times aren'-t as good as I would like. We have a new coach (Larry Lyons) at my club team, the Anderson Barracudas, and it's taking a while to adjust to his style. Maybe things will fall into place for me this next week. I think my state-meet experience from last year will be an asset." Matt Brunsman of Yellow Springs put all 32 of his team's points on the board with firstplace finishes in the 200 individual medley and 100 breaststroke. TEAM SCORES 1. St. Xavier 221'12, 2.

St. X wins district; CCD strong second BY KERRY SMITH Enquirer Contributor

St. Xavier captured the Southwest District swimming meet championship Friday night at Keating Natatorium at St. Xavier, advancing nine swimmers in five different events to the state meet next weekend at Canton, Ohio. Mike Andrews was the lone ~vent winner for St. X, taking frrst m the 100 backstroke in 54.64. But junior Andy Kendrick has a good chance of qualifying for the state meet in two events, diving and the 50 freestyle. Kendrick placed second in diving competition Wednesday, and was sixth in the 50 free. Only the top three placers in each event automatically qualify for the state meet. But But additional qualifiers will be added after times from all Ohio district meets are compared - and since St. X competes in the traditionally strong Southwest district, Kendrick's chances of qualifying as an at-large entry appear good. . The Aquabombers totaled 221.5 team points, with Cincinnati Country Day second with 114.5 and Anderson third with 100. . CCD fmished a strong second, 'Ylth four swimmers qualifying in flVe events. Anderson was third with four swimmers headed for Canton in three different events. Doug Wharton of Anderson, the defending state champion in the 100 breaststroke, finished third with a time of 59.90, behind Western Hills' Todd Radel (59.61) and Matt Brunsman of Yellow Springs. Wharton wil attempt to defend his state title next weekend. CCD was led by four swimmers, who qualified for the state meet in five events. Darryl Baker finished second in the 50 freestyle (21.74) and will Âˇmake a return trip to state, where he placed 14th in the 50 freestyle last year.

Swimming "My time was just two-hundredths off my best ever in the 50 free," Baker said. "I felt good and thought it was a good time:" Baker also finished in a tie for third (48.07) in the 100 freestyle, and swam the first leg of the . victorious 400 freestyle relay ' team, which has posted the fastest time in the state so far this year. CCD's Brad Bobbitt is headed for the state meet after placing ! second (1:45.32) in the 200 yard Âˇ freestyle. "That's by far my best time ever," Bobbitt said. "I got off to a slow start but I stayed strong mentally and knew I would be able to bring it back." Sophomore David Scheer also will qualified for the Indians, placing third (53.13) in the 100 yard butterfly. Scheer, Bobbitt, and David Osterhus will team with Baker as CCD attempts to win a state title in the 400 freestyle relay. "That's been a goal of ours all year," said Bobbitt. ''We've been maturing over the past two years and it's starting to show." Cincinnati area schools took seven of the top ten places in the final team standings.

A tale of two divers ~

....

By Steve Hymon ~

In many ways.~ this week's Southwest Ohio Swimming and Diving Classic was typical of every other dive meet this year. When allwas said .and done, the same three names stood atop the standings. Sycamore's Dean Panaro, St. X's Andy Kendrick, ·and Moeller's Matt. Borman. The fact is that while one would expect these three to pe rival divers from rival schools, their common skills and poise seem to have transcended that. What you will ftnd is .three friends pushing tliemselves and each other to be better divers. Not only are they better divers because of it, but ~hey are by far the best young divers In not only · the Cincinnati area but the country as well. For .Instance. Panaro won the dive meet this weekend and set a meet record of 595.9 points. Who's record did he beat? Andy Kendrick's mark of 480 from last year's meet. This year, Pan.aro and Borman have been setting tht· pace. Of the two Panaro Is. bette I . known. Now. in his senior year. Panaro has been to the state championships all three years of high school and the last two years he has won it. Earlier this year Dean just missed making the Olympic trials by a small margin. He was also recognized as the top high school div:er in a national poll of high school coaches. Last spring he traveled to China to compete· in an International event and finished sixth In the preliminary's. Borman is right on his tail though. He was· the national champion on the three meter board when he was 12 years old. At 14 he made the U.S. International Team for his age group and traveled to Spain. Fr::tncP..

St. X wins district; CCD strong second BY KERRY SMITH Enquirer Contributor

St. Xavier captured the Southwest District swimming meet championship Friday night at Keating Natatorium at St. Xavier, advancing nine swimmers in five different events to the state meet next weekend at Canton, Ohio. Mike Andrews was the lone ~vent winner for St. X, taking first m the 100 backstroke in 54.64. But junior Andy Kendrick has a good chance of qualifying for the state meet in two events, diving and the 50 freestyle. Kendrick ~laced second in <Jiving competition Wednesday, and was sixth in the 50 free. Only the top three placers in each event automatically qualify for the state meet. But But additional qualifiers will be added after times from all Ohio district meets are compared - and since St. X competes in the traditionally strong Southwest district, Kendrick's chances of qualifying as an at-large entry appear good. . The Aquabombers totaled 221.5 team points, with Cincinnati Country Day second with 114.5 and Anderson third with 100. CCD fmished a strong second, with four swimmers qualifying in five events. Anderson was third with four swimmers headed for Canton in three different events. Doug Wharton of Anderson', the defending state champion in the 100 breaststroke, finished third with a time of 59.90, behind Westem Hills' Todd Radel (59.61) and Matt Brunsman of Yellow Springs. Wharton wil attempt to defend his state title next weekend. CCD was led by four swimmers, who qualified for the state meet in five events. Darryl Baker finished second in the 50 freestyle (21. 74) and will make a return trip to state, where he placed 14th in the 50 freestyle last year.

"My time was just two-hundredths off my best ever in the 50 free," Baker said. "I felt good and thought it was a good time:" Baker also finished in a tie for third (48.07) in the 100 freestyle, and swam the first leg of the · · f v1ctonous 4 0 0 reestyle relay team, which has posted the fastest time in the state so far this year. CCD's Brad Bobbitt is headed for the state meet after placing second (1:45.32) in the 200 yard freestyle.· "That's by far my best time ever," Bobbitt said. "I got off to a slow start but I stayed strong mentally and knew I would be able to bring. it back."

Silbersack edges friend Carter BY KERRY SMITH Enquirer Contributor

McNicholas High freshman Tina Silbersack outdueled Turpin senior Jennifer Carter at the Anderson girls sectional swim meet Saturday night at Anderson High School. Swimming in adjacent lanes in the 200-yard individual medley, Silbersack set a pool record with a . winning time of Jenmfer Carter 2:11.03. Carter finished, two seconds behind in 2:13.56. Both qualified for the district meet next weekend, as did the top four swimmers in each event from three sectional meets. Twelve additional qualifiers from sectionals ~ill be added to district competition. "Tina and I are friends, we train together all summer," Carter said. "She is such a great swimmer there's an awful lot of pressure at state, but I think she can win there." While Silbersack has already been a national meet finalist - she swam the 200-yard butterfly at an international event in Indianapolis last summer - Carter has some lofty credentials of her own. She finished fifth in the 100yard backstroke and eighth in the 200-yard individual medley last yew at the state. meet. She was

Swimming one of nine Turpin swimmers to qualify for the state meet last year. Jennifer was the only swimmer at Anderson Saturday with a sub-one minute time in the 100-yard backstroke this year. "I'm a better tapered swimmer," Carter said, explaining the difference in performance when a swimmer rests and cuts down on long distance practice ·swims in preparation for a race. "My times always improve at the end of the season," she said. "Tina (Silbersack) is a better natural swimmer than I am, but I expect to better my times at district by cutting down my practice swims and resting this week. My goal is to be in the top three at the state meet." Debbie Lingo s*-am a leg in the 200-yard medley relay for Turpin and also won her heat in the 200 individual medley. "There's a little pressure to do well," said Lingo, who just missed making the state meet last season in the 100 breaststroke, her specialty. "I had the flu for five weeks, so I am swimming much faster now than I was in the middle of the season." McAuley sophomore Julie Speier won the 200-yard freestyle at Anderson with a time of 1:57.57. McAuley's team is coached by Mimi Strenk, who is a former Mercy swill\ team member.

St. X in new bid for watery fame BY KERRY SMITH Enquirer Contributor

The Cincinnati Enquirer/Jim Callaway

St. Xavier's Eric Welte won both the 100 and 200 freestyle events at the Anderson Sectional Friday.

The St. Xavier swim team qualified t'ight swimmers in eight different events Friday night, easily outdistaneing Cincinnati Country Day and Anderson for the Anderson sectional swim meet title. The Bombers opened by setting a ~ool record in the 200-yard medley relay with a time of 1:40.80, breaking a mark set in 1981 by a St. Xavier team. The sectional at Anderson will combine with meets at Princeton and Sycamore to produce four automatic qualifiers in each event to the district meet at St. Xavier next weekend. Twelve additional swimmers with the next fastest times, from all three sectional meets, will be added to district competition. Junior Andy Kendrick, who won the sectional diving competition Thursday at Anderson, was part of the winning relay team and also finished fifth in the 50-yard freestyle. St. Xavier showed its dominance by placing three of the first seven finishers in the 50 free, Ian Stewart and Rob Sheil finishing with top times along with Kendrick. The Bombers also swept a heat in the 200-yard freestyle. Junior Eric Welte won with a time of 1:46.92, sophomore Rob Drumm was second (1:48.92) and senior Eric LeMay was third (1:49.09). Welte is the Bombers' best freestyle swimmer and competes in the 100and 500-yard freestyle events as well. "We all get psyched when the sectionals start," Welte said. "There's quite a bit of pressure but you want to carry on that tradition."

Swimming Success stems from a legacy of 12 straight state swimming championships in the 1970's and 80's. St. Xavier was declared the mythical national high sehoul swimming champion twice in that period. It returns some 100 swimmers for an annual alumni swim meet each December. There were other outstanding performances. Anderson senior Doug Wharton swam to an easy win in the 200-yard individual medley (backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly and freestyle). He finished in a time of 1:58.39. Wharton, defending state champion in the 100-yard breaststroke, finished second to Todd Radel of Western Hills Friday, Cincinnati Country Day's David Osterhus won the 50-yard freestyle with a clocking of 22.40. The Indians placed four swimmers among the top seven finishers in the 50 free, combining with St. Xavier to dominate that event. Senior Darryl Baker (22.60) and sophomore Derek Scheer (22.93) placed in the 50 freestyle for CCD.

Moeller's Steve Busse has the state's best recorded times in both the 50 freestyle (21 .36) and 100 freestyle (47.02) this season.

Busse makes a big splash as freestyler BY KERRY SMITH Enquirer Contributor

At 6-foot-6 and 200 pounds, it's hard to mistake Moeller's Steve Busse at a swim meet. But after abandoning high school football and basketball for competitive swimming, Busse is now noticed for more than just his size. He is bidding for a state swim championship. At the district meet Friday night at St. Xavier, the senior will attempt to qualify for next week's Canton state meet in three events, the 50 freestyle, 100 freestyle and 400 freestyle relay. He had the fastest time in the sectional meets in both the 50 free and the 100 free. "He has a great chance to win both events (50 and 100) at the state meet," said Larry Lyons, Busse's coach who is the foremost authority on swimming in the area. "He's really just scratching the surface as a swimmer." That's because Busse has been swimming seriously for just two years. Although he had been a member of the Anderson Hills Swim Club and competed in summer meets, it wasn't until his junior year at Moeller that it became a priority. "In training, he has the swim experience of an 11-or 12-yearold," Lyons said. "But physically, he has the size and strength of a 21-year-old, so he really has gotten to this point on talent alone." Busse was a starting offensive tackle at football-rich Moeller in his junior season, when the team went 7-3. He also started on the junior varsity basketball team as a center in his sophomore season. "I just didn't enjoy football that much," Busse said. "I had always felt a lot of pressure to play because I was always overweight. I broke my wrist my junior year and after I found some success in swimming and met so many great people, I decided to concentrate on that." Busse gave up basketball his junior year and football his senior year to direct his efforts toward

Prep swimming swimming. He has met with neither failure nor frustration. "My first meet with the swim team was my junior year at Talawanda," Busse said. "I remember thinking I didn't do that well until the next day in practice when my teammates said what a great time I had. That made me realize what I could do." In that first meet he swam the 50 freestyle in 22.73 seconds. Since then, he has posted a 21.13 time in finishing third in the state meet last year and a 20.90 at the junior national meet in Alabama last summer. He missed qualifying for the 1988 Olympic Trials by .03 seconds, with a time of 23.82 in a longer 50-meter race. And he was part of a 400-yard freestyle relay team which brought home a state title for Moeller last year. This season, Steve has the state's best recorded times in both the 50 free (21.36) and 100 free (47.02). Not only would he like to win at the state meet, he would also like to set some records. Both the national mark in the 50 free (20.19) and the state record in the 100 freestyle are within reach. "Steve is as fine a raw talent in his specialty as there is," said Dick Beerman, who is swim team moderator a1 Moeller. "And when he steps up on the blocks at a meet, everybody roots for him. He has a special c1arisma about him." "He is just now learning to be dedicated to the sport," said Lyons. "With what he has been able to achieve with raw talent alone, there is no limit to what he could do with extensive training." Busse will attempt to qualify for the state meet by finishing among the top three swimmers in each event at Keating Natatorium at St. Xavier Friday night, with the meet beginning at 7:30 p.m .. The girls district meet is at St. X Saturday at 7:30 p.m., and the top four finishers in each event automatically advance to state for the girls.

BORMAN BREAKS SEVENTEEN YEAR RECORD Matt Borman, senior Moeller diver smashed a seventeen year old diving record at the Sycamore New Year's Invitational Swimming and diving meet this past weekend at Sycamore High School. Matt scored 319.55 points in six dives to surpass the old record held by Gary Kuhre of Sycamore set way back in 1973 ot 301.70 points. In addition to setting the new record, this was the fourth consecutive year that Matt has won the Sycamore Invitational.

The day of reckoning is quickly approaching for Mike Klug, Moeller High School's outstanding freestyle swimmer. Unbeaten in the 200-yard freestyle this season, Klug will square off with St. Xavier's Joey Hudepohl, the best in Ohio, at next Friday's district swim meet at Keating Natatorium. "I've never swam against Hudepohl but I'm looking forward to it," said Klug after winning ·Friday's 200 freestyle at the sectional meet at Sycamore High School. "He (Hudepohl) has better times but I'd like to see how well I can do.", On paper, it appears that Klug has little chance against Hudepohl, who has recorded a 1:39.87. Klug's fastest time of 1:46.66 came in three weeks ago. The Cincinnati Enquirer/Steve Perez "I'm not happy with tonight's time (1:49.36)," Klug said. "I'd IKevin Klasmeier of Sycamore like to be under 1:48 and then go finished first in the third heat of for a 1:42 at the state meet, the individual medley, coming in which should put me in the top at 2:17.65.

six.".

Myers pulls diving upset Oxford Talawanda's Travis Myers pulled off the biggest upset .at the Sycamore sectional meet, edging heavily favored Matt Borman of Moeller in the diving compstition. In a career-best effort, Myers, a 14-year-old freshman, compiled a score of 490.60, nearly six points better than Borman,, who came in at 485.15. What made the feat even more impressive is the fact that Myers is deaf, a definite disadvantage for a diver. He needs a more intense concentration to properly gauge the spring of the board. "Travis was born deaf and attended a school for the deaf in Washington, D.C. last year," Talawanda swimming coach Jeff Russell said. "Apparently, he

didn't like it and came back to Talawanda." Russell belie~es Myers has a good shot at winning two or three state champibnships before graduating in four years. "I don't think Travis can win this year because he's a virtual unknown," Russell said. "It's important that the judges know a diver and what he can do in the way of difficult dives. It's not a political thing, just familiarity with the performer." SYCAMORE SECTIONAL <At Sycamore High School) Top four individuals in each event qualify for District Team Standings: 1.

Budding swimmer just might be able to meet tall order By Dave Schutte Post contributor

Dan Ragland stares in disbelief every time he sees Steve Busse, a 6-foot-6, 230-pound senior, walking the halls at Moeller High School. It's not that Ragland, the Crusaders' secondyear basketball coach, has never seen a student with such physical attributes, but the fact that the 17-year-old Busse opted for swimming rather than football or basketball. "It's unusual for an athlete Steve's size to excel in swimming," former Sycamore swimming coach Larry Lyons said. "The first time I saw Steve was last year in a meet at Sycamore, and I knew when he stepped onto the blocks that he was the big moose who everybody said could sprint like crazy." What Lyons observed at that meet left a lasting impression. "Right away, I could tell that Steve would be a factor in the 50 freestyle and also in the relays for Moeller," Lyons said. "As it turned out, Steve finished second in the 50 at the state meet and also anchored both relay teams." Lyons, who now coaches the Anderson Barracudas, of which Busse is a member, predicts his new student could accomplish an unprecedented feat. "No high school swimmer has ever gone under 20 seconds in the 50," Lyons said. "I may be wrong, but I think Steve will be the first to do it this year, and it could possibly come at the state meet." It's striking that Lyons, one of Cincinnati's most respected swimming coaches, speaks so highly of Busse's potential. It wasn't until last summer that Busse started swimming competitively at the Anderson Hills Swim Club. Until Lyons took over recently, Busse had little or no coaching. "Steve was torn bet.ween football and swimming," Lyons said. "Because of his size and athletic ability, everyone assumed that he would play football rather than a swim." Busse's father, Pete, also was surprised when his son choose swimming. "I played football in high school and enjoyed knocking people down, but Steve is the opposite," Pe~e Busse said. "Steve played football at Moeller !"or three seasons and started last year as an offensive lineman, but this year he decided to stick with swimming." Many refer to Busse as the "gentle giant," and his father agrees that's a correct assessment. "Steve just isn't a mean person, and he's not vicious enough for football," Pete Busse said. "Swimming is more to his liking, and I hope he dJes well." Lyons said Busse is nowhere near his potentill. "Steve's a kid who's fun, frustrating and exhilamting all at the same time," Lyons said. "I don't think he understands how good he can become or

Moeller High senior Steve Busse apparently has the potential to be a top-class amateur swimmer. far he can go." Despite Busse's lack of experience and development as a swimmer, Lyons predicts he will become one of the country's most heavily recruited high school swimmers within the next few months. "The colleges are looking for fast kids who are undeveloped and physically big," Lyons said. "Most quality high school swimmers have been performing for seven or eight years and have reached their potential. Steve's the type of kid who will continue to develop and improve, and that's exactly what the colleges are looking for." Last week, Busse qualified for the U.S. Open Swimming Championships in Indianapolis, where he finished 24th in the 50-meter freestyle against a tough international field. "This may not seem like much of an accomplishment, but Steve's performance was outstanding for a high school kid," Lyons said. "This was his first international meet, and he was swimming against some of the best in the world." Lyons is working on training and conditioning Busse for the 100 and 200 events. "Steve is light years ahead of where he was last year." Lyons said. "I think he's capable of going longer distances, although many colleges would

aters and Producers, which copresents the awards, firmly believes,· however, that the Tony should remain what it has always been - exclusive Broadway property. "The Tonys have been, and are, a uniquely Broadway award," said Harvey Sabinson, the league's ex-. ecutive director. The debate has been vehement, with forceful expressions of feeling, and there is little middle ground. What is at stake is the glamour of national recognition through television exposure, and the financial success that most often comes with the award. The awards have real box office value - a value that is illustrated by the history of last season's Tony winner for best play, David Henry · Hwang's "M. Butterfly." The show was doing well before it won the prize, but after its victory it sold out for montl1s. It was the only new Broadway play Ia_st .season to be a major fi-

nancial winner. The Tcmys will be presented from 9 to 11 p.m. June 4 on CBS. They are given each year just before summer vacation time, and as tourists descend on New York, the play that wins the Tony alrP.ost always becomes a must-see item. · That translates into a lot of money at the box office. The awards cover presentations in 38 theaters that are officially designated as Broadway houses. The rules state that the theaters must have atleast 499 seats. All the designated theaters are, roughly speaking, in mid-Manhattan, from W. 41st toW. 65th streets. The m·ea goes up to 65th Street to take in the Vivian Beaumont Theater a tLincoln Center. The approximately- 30 offBroadway theaters - those with fewer than 499 seats, situated in places like Greenwich Village, SoHo, Chelsea and the Upper East and West Sides, and including organizatioi1S like the Public Theater and the Manhattan Theater Clubare not eligible.

Long-lost feature film has screening which helped arrange the sp¢cial· screening. The barn had been rented by Lasky and DeMille for $75 and now has been transformed into. the Hollywood Studio Museum. It's the only museum in HollyWood devoted to film history and contains such memorabilia as iBen Hur's chariot, Mary Pickf()rd's makeup case and Mabel Normand's traveli1.1g trunk. . . 1i .\ ·. "This building played a veryiinportant part in the evolution of movies," said Hollywood Councilman Michael Woo. Dan Sartell, a former assistant· to ~asky who came from his home in Jamesville, ·wis., said LaSky would be thrilled to see the film so well preserved.
