Tyson was yet another nationally accomplished swimmer and water polo star who contributed to Caltech’s storied tradition of aquatics success. A two-time All-America selection alongside fellow Hall of Honor inductees Gregg Wright ’69 and Henry DeWitt ’68 as part of the Medley Relay which placed fourth and sixth at the NAIA National Championships and an individual SCIAC champion in the 100-yard Breaststroke, he also captained the SCIAC Tournament-winning water polo team, having developed into a significant contributor after joining with little familiarity but earning the team Most Improved Player award earlier in his career.
