The 17-year-old boy who had been reported missing in the water near Davenport Beach early his week has been identified as Dennis Cyncor-McMillan of Los Gatos. According to reports, "[a]round 4 a.m. Monday, Dennis and his 17-year-old friend decided to swim to a pinnacle a short distance out in the rocky cove." After straying from his pal, the Cal Fire, State Parks, U.S. Coast Guard, La Selva Fire Department, a boat, and a helicopter failed to find him. The search has been suspended.
Cyncor-McMillan was described as "popular on many fronts." Dennis, the Mercury News goes on to report, "was a member of the Los Gatos High School football team, and he would be the second player on the team to die suddenly in the past few months. Michael Halpin, a member of the team, collapsed at school and died Dec. 2."

Swimming in 50 degree water at 4am. Our pool (of the genetic variety) just got a little cleaner...
While on the cross country team in high school, I too used to swim in the ocean around that time. It's not that uncommon. Very refreshing, in fact.
Cross country, Brock? How fetch!
bad call, haggie.
but Brock, swimming at 4:00 AM in socal you have water that is MAYBE in the 60 degree range plus little swell and not too many rocks. Davenport is much much different. Bad Call
These things happen in threes. If I'm a member of the Los Gatos High football team, I just got very nervous.
And yeah, Lenny said it best: "Alcohol and nightswimming, a winning combination."
