The area most affected by injury was the diving team. Out of five divers, only two were consistent competitors. But these two--freshman Kara Miller and sophomore Hilary Grubb--finished in the top three in most meets and held the team together.
"In terms of the diving team, we were knocked out of commission," Grubb said. "Carrie was hit by a truck and [senior] Marcia [Vital] had recurring wrist problems.
"It was not as strong a season as we had hoped it could be but we did well," she added. "For next season, out top recruits have indicated that they are planning to come [to Harvard] so diving will be doing really well."
Despite these problems for the team, a number of individuals swam best times and, as usual, junior co-captain Deb Kory finished the season with six individual top times and four relay top times. These included two school records.
Currently she is participating in the NCAA tournament in the 400 Individual Medley, 200 Breaststroke and the 200 IM.
"Our team goal this season was mostly t have fun and to see what we could do,' sophomore Greta Steffenson said. "Beating Princeton was a goal but it was more important to have fun and do our best."
