The 1977 NCAA Division I Championships were notable for setting new NCAA Records in every event. Actually, records were broken in 16 of the 15 swimming events, because the 1,000 yd Freestyle record was broken on the way in the 1,650 yd Freestyle. This rewriting of the entire record book is believed to be a unique situation.
