With the end of the regular season, the men's swimming and diving team is now preparing for the Eastern Seaboard Championships March 1-3 at Army.

Penn State will take 16 swimmers and four divers instead of the usual 17 swimmers and two divers because of the depth of the diving team.

Swimming coach Peter Brown and diving coach Craig Brown hope the divers will make the difference and boost the Lions to their first Eastern championship.

Each swimmer can compete in up to three individual events and up to four relays. Because there are five relays, Peter Brown must chose a team with enough depth to swim fast enough in the heats to qualify for the final.

He remains undecided on who to take but here is a list of the Penn State swimmers who have qualified for Easterns:

Ed Adelman 50, 100 freestyle. Andy Archer 100, 200 breaststroke; 200, 400 IM. Eric Becher 200 butterfly. Nick Boyce 100, 200 back; 100 fly; 100 free; 200 IM. Tim Boyd 50, 100 free.
