Cahalan was never even afforded the chance. He barely missed qualifying for the Australian Olympic swim team in 1984, and consequently he does not swim anymore. What he does, though, is help coach Miami's men's and women's swim teams. He now helps future Olympi ans on UM's squad deal with the possibili ty of not qualifying for the Olympics. That was a possibility Fiore faced this summer. Though he eventually made the U.S. baseball entry to Seoul, he did so af ter successfully beating out many other players in try-outs this summer. Of the seven Olympians who either still attend UM or just graduated this past May, Fiore of the class of '88 was the only one to taste the true sweetness of an Olympic gold medal. The U.S. baseball team de feated Japan by a score of 5 — 3 in the fi nal.
