I was delighted to see Jed Graef ’64, Olympic and world record holder in the 200-meter backstroke, on the list. In his time, he was the best there was at his event.
I would also consider Ross Wales ’69 who was unbeatable in his event and medaled in the 1968 Olympics in the 100-meter butterfly. (It was also fun to watch him during swim meets sitting studiously on the bench with glasses on reading until it was time to take off his jacket and win his event, dry off, and pick up his book and resume where he had left off.)
