Jim Hogan, also of San Clemente, is expected to challenge Lambresi and Andino this week. Hogan won three of the first four events last season, but he has been bothered by a knee injury this season and has not won.

In the bodyboard competition, Lani Mucha of Anaheim is 348 points behind leader Scott Aichner of Ventura in the overall standings.
