TODD WINES 50-Yard Freestyle Santa Ana Valley, Sr. Third-place in 1992 left a bad taste in Wines’ mouth. He swam faster--21.11 compared to last year’s 21.31--and smarter in 1993. He was also third in the 100 free.

MATT CORNUE 100-Yard Freestyle Villa Park, Jr. Three swimmers vied from start to finish in a race Cornue was hungriest to win. Cornue, second in the 200 free, was .07 seconds better than Marina’s Jon Kenyon.
