Rudolph, whose time of 51.06 seconds set a meet record, had beaten Biondi and world record-holder Tom Jager in the men’s 50-meter freestyle Saturday.

In another upset, Stanford-bound Summer Sanders of Roseville, Calif., beat Michelle Von Kotze of Australia and Janet Evans of Placentia, Calif., triple gold medalist in the 1988 Olympics, Sunday in the women’s 200-meter individual medley. Sanders’ time was a meet-record 2:17.79.
