Riley Boys Swimming and Diving
|
The 2010-2011 season has come to a close. The boys had a great season of hard work filled with a bit of disapointment. The 2011-2012 season will start in November! The captains for next season are Miguel Santos and Jarred Pfaff. Boys are welcome to join regardless of their previous swim experience. Good luck Wildcats!
The ISMMD class would like to recognize John Buchanan for winning the 100 yard Butterfly as a freshman in the '57 State Championship. He went on to place 2nd at State for the next 3 years and was an All-American all four years. The RHS Swim Team team won state in '56, '57, and '58 led by John Buchanan, Tom Bloom, John Odusch, Dave Richards, and Dennis Floden. In '61 the team (captained by Dan Swihart) placed 2nd at State. And in '62 the swim team (led by David Buchanan) got another State title. The RHS Swim Team would like to honor Lee Hitchcock who swam with these fine young men before serving in the Vietnam War and never returning home.
