I Men: Princeton Edges Harvard for Eastern League Title"},"content":{"rendered":"

CAMBRIDGE, Ma., March 2. SIMILAR to their counterparts at the University of Pacific 3000 miles to the west, the Princeton Tigers' men's team won its
\nseventh Eastern Championship here this evening.<\/p>\n

Coach Rob Orr's Tigers emulated the record-breaking feat of UOP Tiger coach Ray Looze, whose team stopped Santa Barbara's 23-year Big West win streak the third weekend of last month at Long Beach's Belmont Plaza Olympic Pool, when they stopped Harvard coach Tim Murphy's skein of six-consecutive EISL titles with a 1522-1494 win. Yale was third with 1201.5 points.<\/p>\n

Perhaps making the victory doubly sweet for Orr, a former USC All-America who's in his 23rd year at Princeton, was that the championship was won in arch-rival Harvard's Blodgett Pool, site of the 1980 NCAA men's championship and also the '81 U.S. Swimming Spring Nationals.<\/p>\n

Princeton was led by record-breaking junior Jesse Gage, who won three individual races (50-100 frees, 20.10-44.15) and the 100 fly (47.81). In the latter he broke his own meet and Eastern record of 47.84 from his freshman year.<\/p>\n

Gage's time is slightly slower than the pool-record of 47.34 by former Cal star Par Arvidsson, set when he swam on the Bears' '80 NCAA championship team.<\/p>\n

That meet was the final weekend of March.<\/p>\n

Less than four months later Arvidsson, a member of Sweden's national team, won the gold medal at the Moscow Olympics with a then world-record of 54.15 for the meters version of this race.<\/p>\n

Whether Gage will even swim the Olympic Trials in Long Beach in about two and-a-half years is of course uncertain at this point, but he certainly has a good precedent to follow.<\/p>\n

Gage also swam on four of Princeton's winning relays (200 free-medley, 400 free-medley), so seven golds in seven races is certainly a Spitzian feat.<\/p>\n

Tiger teammate Garth Fealey also had a record-breaking swim on Day 2 when he splashed to a 54.30 100 breast clocking, breaking the old meet and Easterns mark of 54.43 by former Prinetonian Rich Korhammer from the 1989 NCAAs in Indianapolis.<\/p>\n

Fealey also won the 200 breast tonight with a pr 2:00.12, NCAA "B" cut.<\/p>\n

The Tigers went 1-2 in the meet's final individual event, the 200 fly, with junior Carl Hessler stroking to a 1:45.73-1:47.14 over teammate Juan Valdivieso, a sophomore.<\/p>\n

Hessler's time is just off his meet-record of 1:45.60 that he swam during his freshman year and also shy of the all-time Eastern record of 1:45.22 (his pr) that he swam during the Yale-Harvard-Princeton tri-meet last season.<\/p>\n

Although he resides during the non-academic year in Landover, Md., Valdivesio is a Peruvian national and finaled at last summer's U.S. Nationals in Clovis with a national-record 1:59.89 from the prelims.<\/p>\n

Hessler's winning time made the NCAA "B' cut.<\/p>\n

Harvard had its share of outstanding performers too with sophomore John Cole winning the distance triple (500-1000-1650 frees) and junior teammate Dan Shevchik taking the IMs and the 200 back,<\/p>\n

Last season Cole was fifth in the NCAA 1650 free (Eastern- and Harvard-record 14:49.48)a and Shevchik's been 3:46.60 in the 400 IM and 1:44.43 for the 200 back, both at last season's Easterns in West Point.<\/p>\n

So Crimson coach tim Murphy is not without his stars too, but he'll have to wait a year before trying to start another EISL championship win streak.<\/p>\n
