Meet floods'68 swim team with memories
Kansas swimming's present team had the chance to meet its past Friday night at the Robinson Natorium in Robinson Center.

Nine members of the Jayhawks' 1968 Big Eight championship team returned for homecoming activities and an exhibition meet at the pool Friday night.
The 1968 team was the first team to win a Big Eight championship for Kansas and started a string of eight straight conference titles.
The night was a chance for team members to share memories and reminisce about some of the best times of their lives.
Dick Reamon, who coached the 1968 team, said he remembered the team because it won the championship in its home pool.
Tom Van Slike, who swam for Kansas until he graduated in 1967 and became the team's assistant manager the next year, said the reunion had
"The thing that really sticks is the fact it was won here," Reamon said. "This place was special."
"I helped run the team that year," Van Slike said. "The best times of my life were spent swimming here."
The night also gave Reamon the chance to reflect on some of the changes that have occurred since 1968. Reamon coached from 1962 to 1977. One change was the addition of a women's team in 1974. But the biggest change for team members has been in facilities, he said.
brought back the best memories for the team.
"We used to swim in an old 20-yard pool," Reamon said. "Now, they have a pool for warm up and cool down. It's great."
The conference also has changed — from eight members to four, Kansas, Missouri, Iowa State and Nebraska have conference swim teams.
"It's a little sad to see the old teams go," Reamon said. "It's not a cheap sport to field a team in."
Reamon said it had not been a cheap sport in 1968, either.
Dick Reamon, former swim coach who led the 1968 team to a Big Eight championship, signals that he will swim only one lap while Bob Timmons, former track coach, and Gary Kempf, current swim coach, cheer on swimmers. Nine members of the '68 team returned for an exhibition meet at Robinson Center Friday.
"Overnights weren't common, and we split up scholarship money so each member would have a little," he said.
The exhibition meet also provided a chance for present swimming coach
Gary Kempf to meet a few of his personal heroes.
He said that the 1968 team had been one of the teams that helped build Kansas' strong swimming tradition.
the first team to win a conference title, and they need to know how important they are."
The team topped off its weekend with honors at midfield during halftime of the Kansas-Iowa State homecoming football game.
"These guys feel a strong loyalty to the school," Kempf said. "They were
Montana. Allen lead Chiefs past Chargers

SAN DIEGO — Kansas City's oldtimers were too much for San Diego's rookies.
The Chargers, seemingly given new life by two rookies, found out what it is like to give Joe Montana and Marcus Allen too many chances. Montana directed a nine-play, 80-yard drive that Allen capped with a 1-yard run with 1:57 left, and the Chiefs beat the Chargers 17-14 westerday.
After getting knocked out of two games with injuries and missing two others, Montana was around to show his fourth-quarter magic.
San Diego had gone ahead 14-10 on John Friesz's 4-yard pass to Anthony Miller 1:05 into the fourth quarter, set up by rookie Darrien Gordon's 54-yard return.
But Neil Smith blocked two field goal attempts by John Carney, including a 31-yard try with 3:28 left to give the Chiefs the ball at their 20. Smith also blocked a 46-yard attempt by Carney in the third period.
The Chiefs got an immediate boost after the second block when Montana completed a 22-yard pass to Keith Cash. Shawn Lee was called for
roughing Montana, taking the Chiefs to the San Diego 43.
After three straight incompletions, Montana hit Willie Davis on a 12-yard pass on fourth-and-10, then throw another 12-yarder to Hassan Jones. Allen ran a draw play 18 yards to the 1 just before the two-minute warning, then scored his second touchdown of the game and 103rd of his career.
Trailing 10-7 and repeatedly hurting itself with penalties, San Diego got a spark from Gordon. The rookie cornerback from Stanford pulled in Bryan Barker's punt at the San Diego 43, slipped a tackle, worked his way inside and was pulled down by former Charger Martin Bayless at the Chiefs' 3.
Miller got free in the right flat and made it to the end zone ahead of Albert Lewis for the Chargers' first lead.

Earlier, San Diego got its first touchdown in three home games from another rookie, Natrone Means. He broke through one pile and bulled through safety David Whitmore at the goal line to tie the game at 7.
Montana then moved Kansas City 66 yards to the San Diego 17, and Nick Lowery's 35-yard field goal attempt bounced off the left upright.

Means also recovered a fumble by Friesz on the drive that ended in the second blocked field goal.
Montana was interceded for the
first time this year by Carrington at the San Diego 6, 2:37 before halftime. But Bayless intercepted Friesz's pass at the Chiefs' 46 with 1:34 left, leading to Lowery's 37-yard field goal as time expired for a 10-7 lead.
