You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S
    Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights California cruises to fi rst title in 31 years; Team clinches title by winning 400-yard freestyle relay: The California men’s swimming team, powered by titles by senior Nathan Adrian and a victory in the 400-yard freestyle relay during the fi nal day of the meet, earned its third national championship by winning the 2011 NCAA Men’s Swim- ming and Diving Championships March 24-26 at Minnesota. The Golden Bears, led by fourth-year coach David Durden, won their fi rst NCAA team title in men’s swimming since capturing back-to-back titles under Nort Thornton in 1979-80. In a dramatic conclusion to its national title run, Cal’s 400 free relay team of senior Graeme Moore, senior Josh Daniels, sophomore Tom Shields and Adrian won the meet’s fi nal event with a time of 2:47.39 to give the Bears a 493 to 470½ point victory over Texas in the team standings. Stanford placed third in the meet with 403 points. Texas won two events, but couldn’t fully overcome a 63½ -point defi cit at the start of the fi nal day to win the team title. Earlier on the fi nal day, Adrian won his second title of the NCAA meet by capturing the 100-yard freestyle for the third straight year, recording a time of 41.10. He is the third Cal athlete to win the national title in the 100 free three years in a row, joining Olympic gold medalists Matt Biondi (1985-87) and Anthony Ervin (2000-02).

  • Pan American Games History
    60 Years Ago In Swimming History Prepared by the International Swimming Hall of Fame for the UANA Congress at the XVI Pan American Games Origin of the First Pan American Games The 1st Pan American Games were held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, 25 February-9 March 1951. The Pan American Games' origins were at the Games of the X Olympiad in Los Angeles, United States, where officials representing the National Olympic Committees of the Americas discussed the staging of an Olympic-style regional athletic competition for the athletes of the Americas. At the Pan American Sports Conference held in 1940, it was decided to hold the 1st Pan American Games in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1942 and a Pan American Sports Committee was formed to govern the Games. Avery Brundage, President of the USOC and Vice-President of the IOC, was elected as the first President. However, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor brought much of the Americas into World War II, thus forcing the cancellation of the 1942 games. A second conference was held in 1948 at the London Olympic Games. Avery Brundage was re-elected as the President of the PASC. It was decided that Buenos Aires would still host the 1st Pan American Games, this time in 1951. Argentine President Juan Peron and his co-leader, Madam Eva Peron (addressing the Opening Ceremonies, above) were the honorary Presidents and were given a special exhibition of synchronized swimming, while Mario Negri, FINA Bureau Vice President and UANA President presided over the aquatic events, which were held at the Institute of Technical Research, Ministry of Public Works.
