==Competitive diving and trampolining==
A native of Rochester, Minnesota, he was the Minnesota high school diving champion four straight years from 1952-1956. In 1956, Kimball helped lead the Rochester Rockets to the Minnesota AAU outdoor swimming championship. After graduating from high school, Kimball spent one year at the University of Oklahoma before transferring to Michigan. Kimball was a member of three NCAA champion swimming and diving teams at Michigan from 1957-1959. In 1957, he won the NCAA championships in both the one-meter and three-meter springboard events. Kimball's two first-place finishes accounted for 24 of Michigan's 69 points,〔 and were the key to Michigan's 69-61 victory over Yale in the 1957 NCAA championship held at Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The Associated Press reported: "Poised, acrobatic Dick Kimball of Michigan won both the low and high board events." Another account noted: Michigan stood at the top of national collegiate swimming teams today thanks to its divers, a great medley relay team and Yale's failure to qualify more men." Kimball received his bachelor's degree from U-M in 1959 and his master's degree in 1960.
While at Michigan, Kimball also competed on the gymnastics team under Coach Newt Loken and won the national trampoline title.〔 He won the Professional World Diving championship in 1963. He also finished as the runnerup at the World Acrobatic Diving Championships.
