That new look starts at the top with fi rst-year head coach Dennis Pursley and extends through a staff that includes fi ve new assistant coaches to go with two returners from a year ago. Plenty of the new faces look awfully familiar though, and once again that starts at the top. This will be Pursley’s second stint with Alabama swimming and diving following a career spent at the highest echelon of the sport. The Louisville, Ky., native worked under Tide legends John Foster and Don Gambril to start his coaching career in the mid-1970s, following an Alabama career that included earning All-Southeastern Conference honors and an SEC 200 breaststroke title. He also earned both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree from the Capstone.

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.

  • ROWDY GAINES: a WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE by Mark Muckenfuss
    ROWDY GAINES: A WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE By Mark Muckenfuss Check out the January issue of Swimming World Magazine and read all about Rowdy Gaines, past and present, in Emily Mason's "Still Kicking" column. In 1984, Rowdy won the 100 meter free at the Olympic Games in Los Angeles. Following is the story of Rowdy's Olympic triumph as it appeared in Swimming World back in September 1984: Sentimental favorite Rowdy Gaines polished off the end of his individual career with gold, achieving what he has so many times failed to do in the past few years: coming back in a final heat with a time faster than in the morning prelims. What looked like the end of a great American comeback story was tarnished, however, by a controversial start that left a bad taste in the mouths of many of the other competitors, particularly Australian Mark Stockwell, who won the silver, and American Mike Heath, who finished fourth. After congratulating Gaines on his win, Heath, who was caught off balance on the start and was the last swimmer off the blocks, struck at the water with his fist and angrily left the pool. He reportedly said he could have gotten a better start at a novice meet. The Australians filed a formal protest. Peter Evans, Stockwell's teammate, was furious. "You were robbed, mate," he told Stockwell as the medal winners walked to the awards presentation. The complaint was that the start was too quick. The Australians said official Francisco Silvestri of Panama fired the starting gun before all the swimmers were set.

  • Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S
    Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights Michigan wins fi rst championship since 1995, 12th overall: — When Michigan’s Bruno Ortiz pulled himself out of the water after swimming the anchor leg in the 400- yard freestyle relay at the 2013 Division I Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships, the singing started. “Hail to the Victors” echoed around the Indiana University Natatorium at IUPUI March 30, beginning with two Michigan spectator sections on one side of the building and carrying over to the Michigan bench area on the pool deck. The Wolverines did not win the 400 free relay; they fi nished second. But it didn’t matter. Michigan had wrapped up its fi rst national team title since 1995 long before that fi nal relay event. It was the 12th national title for Michigan, and meant it was no longer tied with Ohio State for the overall lead in Division I men’s titles. “This morning, we just kind of let our passion drive us. And that was it,” said Connor Jaeger, who began Michigan’s title drive on the fi nal night of the three-day meet with a victory in the 1,650-yard freestyle. He also won the 500 free in the meet’s fi rst individual race. Michigan’s victory halted a two-year title run by California, which fi nished second. “We started four years ago working on this,” said Michigan’s fi fth-year coach Mike Bottom. “You do it one day at a time; you do it one student-athlete at a time.
