Gunn senior Sarah Snyder opened Sunday's USA Swimming Futures Championship finals with a nice victory in the 100-meter freestyle. She ended the day swimming the anchor leg of Palo Alto Stanford's 400 medley relay team that finished in a first-place tie.

It seemed fitting that Gunn grad Jenna Campbell, who finished fourth in the 100 free, swam the breast leg of the relay, setting up Snyder's freestyle. Stanford grad and Olympian Dana Kirk coaches both swimmers and Campbell is Snyder's "big sister."

There are some who consider Campbell and Snyder to be twins, just born four years apart.

It was another successful day for PASA, giving an indication of, perhaps, successes yet to come.

While Campbell and Snyder were among the meet's top scorers, many others contributed to the noteworthy effort put forth by PASA. The 100 free, like Saturday's 50 free, felt like a PASA showcase.

Snyder won in 56.99 and Campbell placed fourth in 57.81. Grace Anderson (58.04) was 10th overall, Sloane Reinstein (58.59) finished 13th and Ashley Stahmer (58.60) was 14th. Danielle Carter, Sophia Balmaceda, Audrey J-Cheng and Claire Lin each swam in the preliminaries but did not advance.

Castilleja's Marie Williams placed fourth in the 200 individual medley, turning in a time of 2:23.01. J-Cheng was second in the B final with a time of 2:22.47. Castilleja grad Natalie Tuck, swimming unattached, was 13th in 2:23.98.

Carter swam a qualifying time in the 200 IM (2:26.07) but did not pursue it. Alexandra Rudolph, Snyder, Palo Alto junior Amy Wu, Megan Ross and Sacred Heart Prep sophomore Gabrielle Ma all swam in the prelims.

Riley Rhodes placed sixth (2:21.57) in the 200 back. Paige Gambetta (2:25.36) was 23rd and Williams (2:25.53) was 26th.

Grace Tramack was 13th in the 1,500 free. Tramack, Snyder, Stahmer and Melanie Julia, who swam at the Speedo Junior Nationals, are part of a talented Gunn girls team that have to be considered the favorite to defend their Central Coast Section title.

PASA's Joe Molinari swam to his second silver medal in as many days, swimming 2:07.52 to place second in the 200 individual relay Sunday at the USA Swimming Futures Championships in Santa Clara.

Molinari also helped the PASA 400 medley relay team finish third, .11 out of second. Molinari joined Lucas Walker, Yannick Bohbot-Dridi and Brooks Taner to record a time of 3:55.47.

Gunn's Shogo Moridaira placed 23rd in the 200 IM, swimming 2:11.33. Walker was 36th in 2:12.52. Taner finished 17th in the 100 free (53.51).

Walker and Kelvin Tay competed in the prelims of the 200 back but did not advance.
