In the '91-'92 season, the USC
men's swimming and diving team ar
placed fifth in their first year of *n
SEC competition. The diving team
finished second in the SEC ?f
Championship. This can be attrib- di
uted in part to Matt Borman.
Borman, a junior business man- te
agement major, is a two-year letterman
for the diving team, and those di
two years have been impressive. B
His freshman year was the best er
in Gamecock history. Borman was T1
an NCAA finalist in the one-meter
diving event and placed eighth. He
also won the 1991 Metro H
Conference Championship in the Jn
three-meter diving event, is an All- '1
American in the one-meter and ten
meter events, was named to the ^
All-SEC second team and was
USC's diver of the year. ^
Borman says the 1992-93 season
has been a good one, "but the SEC re
has been much more competitive m
than the Metro."

McKoy led USC with 17 points
on the evening, and Emmett Hall

with 15 and 14 points, respectively.
USC's biggest downfall on the
