W&L Mermen Narrowly
Defeat Virginia 53-51

By Steve Giannini
Cavalier Daily Staff Writer

Washington & Lec handed the
Cavaliers their second in-state loss
in a very close and hard fought
meet. The Generals managed their
win by taking the last event of the
meet, the 400-yard freestyle relay,
by only a stroke. The 53-51 defeat
was Virginia's second while W&L
stands at 3-1.

Billy Ball and John Lawlor were
the two leaders for the Generals.
Ball won the individual medley and
200-yard backstroke while Lawlor
won the 1,000-yard backstroke and
the 500-yard freestyle. The
Generals were a strong and
balanced team. They jumped into
the lead immediately and then held
close for the duration of the meet
until they won it in the last event.

The Cavalier's Mike Dailey took
first in the 200-yard butterfly and
the 200-yard freestyle to be
Virginia's only double winner.
Steve ReMine and J. I. Wainwright
placed one-two in the diving event.

Today the mermen are in
Washington to meet Catholic
University and then on Tuesday to
take on Georgetown University.
