She and teammate Chris Vythoulkas—a member of this years Bahaman team—are two of only four FSU swimmers to ever compete in the Olympics while still part of the active roster. The first pair of current Seminoles to compete in the Games was South African Brendon Dedekind and Rob Braknis of Canada when they swam in the 1996 Atlanta Games. Up until 2004 no Seminole had participated in more than two Olympic Games. All of that changed in 2004 as Julio Santos made his third appearance in the games for Ecuador. A two-year All-American, Santos made his first trip to the Games in 1996 then returned in 2000. All told, five Florida State swimmers and divers have participated in more than one Olympics. Florida State has been well represented on the pool deck by a pair of coaches. Head coach Neil Harper, an Olympian himself in 1984 and 1988, served as the head coach for South Africa in 2000, while returning in 2004 as a member of the Swaziland coaching staff. Diving coach Patrick Jeffrey made the trip to Atlanta in 1996 as member of the US coaching staff. With a strong group of returning letterwinners and incom- ing athletes who placed high at their country’s Olympic trials, Florida State should be well represented in the Florida State’s Swimming & Olympics for years to come.

From the world record holders all they way down to person seeded last in lane eight, the dream is there. It’s what drives them to get up at 5:30 a.m. every morning for practice instead of hitting the snooze bar one more time and what makes them swim one more lap instead of hitting the showers even though their body aches. Every Olympian daydreams of seeing their flag rose to the rafters and for former Florida State University swimmer Stephen Parry that dream became a reality. In 2004 he became the first Seminole in 28 years to capture a medal as he took home bronze in the 200-meter butterfly. “I’m really, really proud. It’s an amazing feeling, a fantastic feeling,” Parry said. “I know it’s an old cliché, but it really is a dream come true. I’m so proud to be a part of the British team and give them this medal.” The fulfillment of that dream almost became a nightmare for Parry. Swimming for Great Britain, a ton of pressure had been put on Parry and his teammates after the squad came up dry in the medal count in Sydney, a first for Britain since the 1936 Olympics. Perhaps it was the weight of an entire country on his shoulders or the internal pressure following a fourth-place finish at the 2003 World Championships, irregardless, the preliminaries of the 200 butterfly on August 16 did not go as planned. In fact, the prelims were almost Parry’s only swim of the entire meet.

If he didn’t take his shot at catching Phelps he would never know what might have been. “I thought I’d lost it there at the end,” Parry added. “I saw Michael getting away. I got really excited down that third length. I thought I was reeling him in a bit and I didn’t expect to be there. I came off that last wall and that’s when he showed his true form. He really is fantastic.” During that third lap Parry hit the afterburners—his third split of 29.74 was lap three’s fastest and the third fastest 50-meter split during the final 100 meters of the race— and with 25 meters to go he was neck and neck with Phelps. Unfortunately, the combination of Phelps’ closing ability and not enough fuel in Parry’s tank allowed Phelps to pull away for the gold. “It got really exciting. Steve was pushing Phelps and the two of them just took off,” Harper said. “Stephen tried to make a move at 150 (meters) and caught up to him and it look for a second that he might pull it off, but he ran out of gas and the Japanese guy caught up to him and Stephen held on for the bronze. 200 Meter Butterfly final. Yamamoto also pulled away during the last few strokes as he snuck in for the silver, but Parry would still be on the medal stand. In addition, Parry reset the British record that the stands for the race instead of in the pool. he took down the night before with a time of 1:55.52. With his world turn upside down, Parry turned to a safe haven – Florida State head coach Neil Harper. A confidant from his days as Parry’s assistant coach at FSU and some- one who knows what pressure is like on the British team, Phil Boggs: Florida State’s Harper—who traveled to Athens as a member of the First Olympic Medalist Swaziland coaching staff—was able to put Parry back in When he first came to Florida State in 1968, very few the right frame of mind for the semifinals that night. would have pegged Phil Boggs as a future gold medal win- It’s funny how far a “nothing to lose” attitude can take you. ner in the Olympic Games. It was through hard work and Swimming out of lane eight, Parry not only qualified for a boost of confidence that got him to the top of the medal the finals, but he did something that only one other indi- stand in 1976. vidual had done at the Games, he beat Michael Phelps. The 19-year-old American phenom was the favorite to win five individual medals, but in the semis Parry stole the spot- light as he beat Phelps to the wall and earn the top seed for the finals the following night. All of sudden his rollercoaster ride through the Olympics was heading back up hill at a dramatic pace. Instead of just being another also-ran in the Michael Phelps’ coronation, Parry joined Australia’s Ian Thorpe as the only swimmer at the Games to beat the second-coming of Mark Spitz to the wall. “Sometimes uptight is not the best way for him to per- form,” Harper said. “As you saw from semifinals he’s at his best when he is footloose and fancy-free. You could see by the way he swam that the weight had been lifted off his shoulders. It was fun to watch him last night.” While Parry tried to bring his carefree demeanor to the finals of the 200 butterfly, having the eyes of the world on you and an agitated world record-holder in the lane besides you doesn’t make for a walk in the park. From his observation spot on the deck, Harper noted that as the finalist marched onto the deck for the event, Parry tried to give a wave and a smile to his British teammates in the stands, but clearly his game face is on. As was to be expected, Phelps took an early lead in the race and tried to put as much distance as possible between he and the rest of the field. One of the best in the world at closing out a race, if Phelps had a sizeable lead at the last turn everybody else would be racing for silver. Through the first 100 meters, Parry was firmly in second Phil Boggs accepting FLorida State’s 70 ahead of Japan’s Takashi Yamamoto, but nearly a second first Olympic medal. behind Phelps. Midway through the third 50 meter lap, A four-sport athlete in his native Akron, Ohio, Boggs did- n’t concentrate on diving until his junior year and his first season at Florida State was not outstanding. Instead of heading back to the Buckeye State for the summer following his freshman year, Boggs decided to spend the break in Ft. Lauderdale with coach Bill Barton. “It was fun,” Boggs said of his summer under Barton’s tutelage. “He was the first person to tell me that I had the opportunity to compete on the national level.” Over the course of a summer Boggs was transformed from just another diver to one of the top collegiate divers in the country. At the 1969 NCAA Championships, he picked up his first All-America honor – the first by a Seminole diver since 1961—and proceeded to collect four more national honors over the next three seasons. The year after he won the national championships, Boggs virtually had his ticket punched for the 1972 Games in Munich. A poor dive during the final round of the US Olympic Trials kept him off the 1972 team and put Olympic Dreams on hold for four years. Not only was Boggs determined to be on the 1976 team ▲ in Montreal, he had his eyes set on winning a medal. Neil Harper and Julio Santos Between the 1972 Olympic Trials and the ’76 Games, Boggs won 17 national and international titles, including the 1973 and 1975 World Championships. In four years he had gone from being a spectator to being the favorite for gold. Going into the final round of the 1976 Olympics, Boggs was well in command of the springboard competition, holding a 40-point lead on the nearest competitor, but his experience at the 1972 Trials told him that nothing was guaranteed. He nailed his final dive, a 2.5 somersault with a twist, and when he came back to the surface and saw the judges’ scores, Boggs knew he had the gold medal wrapped up. His final score of 619.05 put him 48.57 points ahead of silver medalist Franco Cagnotto of Italy. “Everything you’ve ever dreamed of is right there. Even if no one else knows, you know it will always be there,” Boggs added. “When the national anthem plays and you’re presented your medal, you feel like the king of the world.” Boggs went on to become the president of US Diving and was inducted into the International Swimming Hall of Fame in 1985. The Phil Boggs Awards is present annually at the US Aquatic Sports Convention, honoring those who Neil Harper and Chris Vythoulkas ▼ have achieved individual excellence in diving and have given back a part of themselves to insure the sport's success continues. Boggs died on July 4, 1990, in Miami, Fla.
