On January 23, 1939, Tar Heel swimmers and divers par- ticipated in the school’s first varsity intercolle- giate swimming meet against the University of Virginia at historic Bowman Gray Pool on the UNC campus. Since 1939, Carolina’s men’s teams have posted a cumulative dual-meet record of 518- 177-1, a winning percentage of .745. Carolina teams have captured 14 Southern Conference team championships and 17 Atlantic Coast Conference team titles, while posting a 60-3 (.952) Southern Conference dual-meet mark and a 240-60-1 (.799) record in ACC dual meets. On 28 occasions, UNC men’s teams have finished amongst the Top 25 teams at the NCAA Championships. Carolina swimmers have also won four indi- vidual NCAA championships in the history of the program.

UNC’s record in ACC dual meets is a duced one national championship relay team. The pool was completed on March 25, 1938, but the first meet was not held until almost a year later. The pool was a gift to the University from Mrs. Bowman Gray, Sr., in memory of her two sons, Bowman Gray, Jr., and Gordon Gray. Bowman Gray Pool served as home to the Carolina swimming and diving program until the fall of 1986 when the Tar Heels moved into their current home, the Maurice J. Koury Natatorium, which is part of the Dean E. Smith Center complex on the UNC campus. Richard E. Jamerson came to UNC in 1938 from Oberlin College in Ohio to take over the helm of the fledgling Tar Heel team. Dr. Jamerson, one of the top coaches in 1930s collegiate swimming, served as head coach of the Tar Heel program for 11 years. Five of his squads went undefeated and 10 of his teams won Southern Conference champi- onships. The annual awards given to Carolina’s most valuable, most outstanding and most improved swimmers bear Jamerson’s name, as does the timing system at the Maurice J. Koury Natatorium. Ralph Casey Coninues the Tradition Jamerson turned over the coaching reins to his long-time assistant coach, Ralph Casey, Tar Heel head coach Frank Comfort confers with Kari Haag, one of the most gifted swimmers in Atlantic Coast Conference history. Haag was named the ACC Swimmer of the Year in both 1995 and on a full-time basis in 1952. Casey had 1996.

With six titles in a row, the 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998 men’s teams became the first UNC teams since 1956-59 to capture as many as four ACC crowns in a row. The men have also made decided progress on the national level. The 1993 team finished 14th, the best Tar Heel national finish since 1967, and the 1996 team had an outstanding 15th-place standing in the championships. The women have finished in the Top 25 in the nation in 25 of the 29 seasons of Comfort’s tenure and won 15 of the 28 ACC championships since that meet’s inception in 1979. On 11 of the other 13 occasions, the Tar Heels have been conference runners-up, an amazing string of consistency. Comfort’s swimmers also do extremely well in the class- room. The 2005-06 school year was the 19th year in a row that Jimmy Thomas is still considered by some to be the premier Carolina’s swimming and diving Denny Hammond was the first Tar Heel men’s swimmer to win the Patterson Medal as the out- swimmer in Southern history.

That is a continuous record of academic excellence in which the student-athletes can truly take pride. Carolina’s swimming success since the program’s inception cannot be credited only to the outstanding coaches who have direct- ed Carolina swimming fortunes. The program has also been distinguished by a long string of outstanding swimmers and divers. A Who’s Who of Great Talent Seven Tar Heel swimmers have been hon- ored as recipients of the Patterson Medal as the school’s outstanding senior athlete, an amazing number for the sport given Carolina’s rich athletic heritage in so many other sports, particularly men’s basketball.

Norm Sper is one of only two Carolina men’s performers in history to be named a first team All-America in four consecutive years. Sper competed from 1947-1950 and was joined in the elite status as four-year first-team All-Americas by backstroker Eric Ericson (1981-84).

In 1980, the summer before she enrolled at UNC, Sue Walsh earned a spot on the United States Olympic Team which was to compete in the Games of the XXII Olympiad at Moscow in what was then the Soviet Union. She was slat- ed to swim the 100-meter backstroke and was a candidate to swim the leadoff leg on the 4x100- meter medley relay. However, U.S. President Jimmy Carter, in response to the Soviet govern- ment’s invasion of Afghanistan in the early months of 1980, joined with leaders in many other democratic countries to organize a boy- cott of the Games by Western nations. In 1984, at the Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles, Calif., UNC rising junior Chris Stevenson represented Greece in the swim- ming competition. Stevenson was born in Greece and his mother was a Greek citizen, thus he qualified for the team.
