III Crown"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>OXFORD. Ohio, March 23.  KENYON Coach Jim Steen is philosophical about his team&#39;s inordinate success in the pool.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You win some and then you lose,&quot; he is fond of saying, suggesting that the old maxim &quot;you can&#39;t win &#39;em all&quot; applies.<\/p>\n<p>Well, coach, we&#39;ve got news for you: you CAN win &#39;em all!<\/p>\n<p>In Kenyon&#39;s case &quot;winning &#39;em all&quot; meant winning a record 23rd-consecutive men&#39;s NCAA Division III Swimming and Diving Championshs this evening at<br \/>\nhost Miami University&#39;s Student Recreation Center Natatorium, just a stone&#39;s throw down the interstate from the Lords&#39; campus in Gambier.<\/p>\n<p>Kenyon smashed a pair of national meet records while scoring 187 points on the meet&#39;s concluding evening to wrack up yet another national championship with 589 points &#8211; somewhat down from the 669 it won with last year.<\/p>\n<p>Kenyon&#39;s closest competitors were Johns Hopkins and Emory University, who finished with 382 and 358 points, respectively, to take second and third in<br \/>\nthe team-title race.  Fourth and fifth were Carnegie Mellon (269) and Hope (262).<\/p>\n<p>Oh, it&#39;s true, Kenyon DOESN&#39;T win &#39;em all.<\/p>\n<p>Why, just last season the Lords (gasp!) lost the DIII women&#39;s championship to intra-state rival Denison, coached by Greg Parini, a Kenyon grad with three champiionship titles on his curriculum vitae.<\/p>\n<p>But that was obviously an aberration &#8212; just a &quot;bump in the road&quot; &#8212; as Kenyon came storming back this season to handily win the women&#39;s crown here last weekend, its 19th in the last 21 years (the meet&#39;s only been swum 22 times).<\/p>\n<p>Steen was here this evening, in spirit if not actually in the flesh, as he&#39;s on sabbatical for the 2001-02 season as Special Assistant to the Kenyon&#39;s Dean of Students.  In his &quot;steen&quot; the Lords are under the guidance of key aide Pete Casares, who joined the staff last year after a stint as an assistant here at Miami and also was responsible for the women&#39;s<br \/>\nchampionship last weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Carares&#39;men&#39;s team victory tonight was its 23-straight title, making that streak the longest by any team in any sport in any division in NCAA history. <\/p>\n<p>With 40 championships overall, Steen is also the most successful coach of any sport in any division in collegiate history too.<\/p>\n<p>Casares&#39; dual wins the last two weekends make him the only other swimming coach other than Florida&#39;s Randy Reese and now Auburn&#39;s David Marsh ever to win a women&#39;s and men&#39;s swim title with the same school.  Of course he&#39;s the ONLY man besides Steen to do it in the same season &#8212; and all he&#39;s got to do now is win another 17-consecutive seasons to accomplish what his &quot;boss&quot; has done. <\/p>\n<p>(That also applies to Marsh, who&#39;ll be trying for Auburn&#39;s third NCAA men&#39;s D1 championship next weekend in Athene, GA. and at the same time try and halt Texas&#39; two-year win streak.)<\/p>\n<p>The NCAA DIII men&#39;s meet has been in existence since 1975 (28 years) and Kenyon has 23 championships.  Hopkins (1977-&#39;79) is No. 2 and Chico State (CA) and St. Olaf (MN) have the other wins.<\/p>\n<p>That Steen hasn&#39;t been snapped up by some Division 1 program wanting to turn its fortunes around (let alone some high-powered club program) is more a testament to Steen&#39;s devotion to his Kenyon swimmers than any lack of foresight on the part of athletic directors and\/or club presidentes, as the veteran Kenyon coach has had innumerable opportunities &#8212; offers &#8212; to go elsewhere since he came to Gambier more than a quarter-century ago.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;I enjoy what I do, I&#39;m proud of our success, we&#39;ve built up a great program here, we have quality kids so why would I want to leave?&quot; he posits.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Now&#8230;if they came and asked me to be head coach for United State Swimming, and then offered to move the program here to Gambier and said they&#39;d duplicate all that great stuff they have in Colorado Springs, well&#8230;&quot; he says facetiously.<\/p>\n<p>Lord sophomore Marc Courtney-Brooks, with wins in the 100-200 freestyles plus golds as a member of four of five winning relays, was voted Swimmer of the Meet.<\/p>\n<p>Other individual awards went to Derek Chicarilli of Middlebury as Diver of the Year, Johns Hopkins&#39; George Kennedy as swimming Coach of the Year and Greg Rape of St. Olaf as the diving Coach of the Year.<\/p>\n<p>The Lords opened the final evening session in impressive fashion as a pair of swimmers established DIII Championship records.  First, senior Michael<br \/>\nBonomo, who last season set a record en route to the 1650 title (15:27.85), made short shrift of that standard with his 15:25.73.  It was Bonomo&#39;s third<br \/>\ngold in this race and a fitting way to end his collegiate career.<\/p>\n<p>Next, 100 back runner-up Leandro Monteiro, a freshman, followed by racing to the 200 backstroke title in a DIII-record 1:47.21.   He also collected a pair of golds as leadoff swimmer on Kenyon&#39;s two winning medley relays.<\/p>\n<p>The Lords&#39; run continued apace as Courtney-Brooks blasted to a 44.80 100 free victory, adding a second individual title to the 100 fly he won last evening.<\/p>\n<p>Courtney-Brooks was absolutely Coughlinesque on Kenyon&#39;s relays, leading off the 200 free in 20.59 (only sub 21), anchoring the 400 medley (44.35),<br \/>\nleading off the 800 free (1:37.12 &#8212; a mere .03 off the DIII record of 1:37.09 for the 200 free) and anchoring the 400 free quarter (43.88!!!)<\/p>\n<p>For good measure, he was runner-up in the 50 free and the race&#39;s top qualifier (20.57).  Not a bad effort, that.<\/p>\n<p>Hope senior Joshua Boss, last year&#39;s Swimmer of the Meet, halted the Lords&#39; string of victories and continued his own in the 200 breaststroke as he<br \/>\nstroked to a 1:59.38 win &#8212; not far off his meet record 1:58.90 from 2001.<\/p>\n<p>Boss has now won the 200 four-consecutive seasons and is the only DIII swimmer ever under 55.0\/2:00.0 for either the 100 or 200.  Only a loss in the 100 his soph season mars his otherwise unblemished record.<\/p>\n<p>Kenyon got back on the winner&#39;s platform in the next race, however, as Lord Carlos Vega &#8212; a junior &#8212; hit the wall first in the 200 fly with a 1:48.78. The win moved him up a notch from last season where he was runner-up 1:50.40).<\/p>\n<p>Vega&#39;s going to have to do some heavy lifting to get the DIII record as that&#39;s a 1:45.19 by former Kenyon star Pedro Monteiro from the 1997 Championships.<\/p>\n<p>In three-meter diving action, Kalamazoo&#39;s Anthony Holt narrowly edged Middlebury&#39;s Chicarilli, 454.30 to 452.70.<\/p>\n<p>In the final race of the meet, the 400 free relay, Kenyon won its fifth of five titles as 200 free champ Read Boon, Monteiro, Jon Philipsborn and Courtney-Brooks splashed to a 2:59.87, more than two seconds faster than Denison&#39;s second-place 3:01+.<\/p>\n<p>Kenyon&#39;s time was just off their 2:57.98 record from four years ago.<\/p>\n<p>With Courtney-Brooks, Boon, Monteiro and Vega all back for next season, that&#39;s not a bad nucleus to try and build championship team No. 24 around.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Bill Bell<\/p>\n<p>      NCAA DIVISION III MEN&#39;S SWIMMING &#038; DIVING CHAMPIONSHIP<br \/>\n               STUDENT RECREATION CENTER NATATORIUM<br \/>\n                        MIAMI UNIVERSITY<br \/>\n                      OXFORD, Oh., March 23<\/p>\n<p>FINAL TEAM STANDINGS (Top 10 Teams)<\/p>\n<p>   PLACE  SCHOOL           POINTS<\/p>\n<p>    1)   KENYON             589.0<br \/>\n    2)   JOHNS HOPKINS      382.0<br \/>\n    3)   EMORY              358.0<br \/>\n    4)   CARNEGIE MELLON    269.0<br \/>\n    5)   HOPE               262.0<br \/>\n    6)   KALAMAZOO          229.0<br \/>\n    7)   DENISON            212.0<br \/>\n    8)   WHEATON            170.0<br \/>\n    9)   CALVIN             136.5<br \/>\n   10)   WHITWORTH          136.0<\/p>\n<p>25 Yd.
