The finals for the 36th edition of the Foothill Swim Games take place Saturday following Thursday’s prelims for girls and Friday’x prelims for boys.

Based on Thursday’s results, Santa Margarita could be well-represented atop the podium. Alex Delaney (200 freestyle), Shannon Mack (200 individual medley) and Meagan Brown (500 free) all were top qualifiers for the finals in their individual events.

Northwood also had three top qualifiers, including a couple of relay teams. One of the best performances belonged to JSerra’s Casey Mims, a freshman who was 1/100th off All-American consideration time in the 100 breaststroke.
