Stein picked up six points in the 50 freestyle by finishing in 26.91. Stein’s finish in the 100 freestyle (58.39) was fast enough to give her a second.

Secord was third in the 200 freestyle with a time of 2:15.56. The 200 freestyle relay team (Heidi Willhite, Brogen Lee, Olson and Laura Greene) was also third in 1:57.81.
