W&L SWIMMERS REACH FOR DIVISION III MEET

Two swimmers from Washington and Lee qualified for the NCAA Division III National Championships with their performances over the weekend at the Liberal Arts Invitational at DePauw University.

The Generals' men's team finished third out of 12 teams, and the women's team was fifth in an 11-team field.

Freshman John Rowe qualified for the Division III meet by winning the 400-yard individual medley and the 200 breast stroke and placing second in the 200 individual medley. Three-time All-American Doug Brown, a senior and the W&L team captain, won the 500-yard freestyle and the 1,650 freestyle and qualified for the nationals in both events.

The men's championships will be held March 19-21 at Buffalo (N.Y.) State University.
