Coach of swim team
surpasses win records
By LANA BERMAN
Sports Writer
Winning is nothing new to Jack
Bauerle. After Georgia’s dual swim
meet victory over Emory Univer
sity earlier this season, Bauerle be
came the winningest swimming
coach in Bulldog history with 119,
surpassing B.W. Gabrielson.
‘Gabrielson was a great man,”
Bauerle said. “He was Georgia
swimming and the more stories I
hear about him the more I wish I’d
known him."
The Pennsylvania native arrived
in Athens in 1970 as a student and
Bulldog swimmer during the 1973
and 1974 seasons, Bauerle served
as team captain before beginning
his coaching career as a graduate
assistant.
Bauerle returned to Pennsyl
vania, but only for a year before re
turning to his alma mater. In 1979,
he took over as head coach of the
women’s team and in 1983 he as
sumed head coach responsibilities
of both the men’s and women’s
teams.
‘This was the first time Georgia
ut both teams under one coach,”
auerle said.
He said he credits much of his
success, including the highest win
ning percentage (.752) of any
Georgia swim conch, to assistant
coach Harvey Humphries.
“I’ve had so much help from
Harvey, I wouldn’t have been able
to do much without him,” Bauerle
said.
Humphries joined Bauerle in
1979 as a graduate assistant and
said Bauerle’s success is due to his
persistence and desire to win.
“He’s the type of person who if
he loses, hell try to analyze why
and hell practice tirelessly to cor
rect the weak point,” Humphries
said.
Sheila Taormina, academic All-
American for the Georgia women’s
team said, “He loves to win and
he’s really dedicated to the team.”
But Bauerle also cares for his
swimmers out of the pool as well,

Cole plus Green equals success

For Litterial Green, letting Rod
Cole run the floor for Durham’s
Dogs is just fine with him.
Halfway through the 1989-1990
season, Green is very comfortable
with his more productive role as
scoring guard. Last season playing
point guard, the Moss Point, Miss.,
native’s scoring capabilities were
not fully tapped as he was mostly
used to run the floor. This season,
Green hands over the offensive
control to Cole and is now able to
utilize his scoring skills.
“We thought that he had to be
freed from not having to handle the
ball all the time,” Georgia associate
coach Tevester Anderson said. “We
thought he could add something to
our scoring by not having to bring
the ball up the floor. If he brings up
the boll, it takes more time to get
the offense set and gives him less
opportunity to score.”
“It feels good being looked upon
by your teammates as a scorer first
and a passer second,” Green said.
“I try to open up the inside game by
nailing jumpers.”
The threat of Green scoring
points from the perimeter releases
some of the pressure on Bulldog
center Alec Kessler.

“He cares about your grades and
he wants you to gain something
from the program besides swim
ming," Ryan said.
Peggy Rothenberg, a senior
swimmer, said she feels Bauerle’s
greatest asset is his love for
Georgia.
“I don’t think hell ever leave
here," Rothenberg said.
After 19 years of coaching in Ste-
geman Hall, Bauerle said he has no
intentions of leaving Athens.
“I like the people here and I
don’t feel like it’s been that long,”
Bauerle said. “I remember dis
tinctly my first win. It was against
Brenau College and was the only
time I was thrown in the pool."
‘You get your adrenalin
flowing a little more
against great players
and great opposition.
(Green) needs to give
110 percent against
everyone he’s playing
against.’
Tevester Anderson,
associate coach
‘They’re always going to double-
team Alec inside so when we’re
having a good gome from the pe
rimeter, they can’t afford to double
team him," Green said. “They’ve
got to piny us even. I think that’s a
mismatch for me. I just keep in my
mind that I don’t feel that anyone
can guard me. I’m not being cocky
or anything. I’m just a confident
ball player.”
In transition, Green looks to
make things happen when he looks
for passes from Cole. Cole feels his
passing abilities and Green’s
scoring talent gel together to form
a formidably fast break tandem.
“I’m more of a passing and
helping player and he’s a better
scorer than I am so it really helps
him out,” Cole said. “He has helped
me playing point guard because it
gives me a lot of control that I
didn’t have playing last year.”
Before his days at Georgia,
Green’s offensive productivity was
impressive as he averaged 39.7
points per game in his senior
season in high school. He scored a
career high 58 points against his
good friend Chris Jackson of Gulf
port (Miss.) High, now an All-
American at LSU.
It’s against high-quality players
like Jackson where Green plays his
best. Against Jackson and LSU
last season, Green averaged 30.5
points in the two contests and this
season scored 28 points playing op
posite Georgia Tech’s Kenny An
derson.
Green feels however that he
needs to motivate himself better
against lesser opponents.
"When we’re not playing that
strong of a team, I’m not there,”
Green said. “I just kind of float
along and don’t concentrate and
don’t focus in on my job and what I
have to do.”
“You get your adrenalin flowing
a little more against great playera
and great opposition,” Anderson
said. “He needs to give 110 percent
against everyone he’s playing
against. That’s what a great bas
ketball player is suppose to be
like.”
