William Thomas Darnton (born June 16, 1940) is an American former competition swimmer who represented the United States at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, Italy.[1] Darnton swam for the gold medal-winning U.S. team in the qualifying heats of the men's 4×200-meter freestyle relay.[1][2] He did not receive a medal, however, because under the Olympic swimming rules in effect in 1960, only relay swimmers who competed in the event final were medal-eligible.
