JASON Lezak has never swum in an individual Olympic race.<\/p>\n<p>Emily Mason has never even made an Olympic team.<\/p>\n<p>But <i> both<\/i> these swimmers may well be the mainstays of the U.S. Olympic team come Athens, if results from the second day of the TYR Swim Meet of<br \/>\nChampions at the Marguerite Recreation Center Pool here are any indication.<\/p>\n<p>Lezak, who as an Olympian last year saw America&#39;s undefeated streak in the 400 free relay fall beneath the waves of the Sydney International Aquatic Centre by a very determined Australian team, swam an impressive meet-record 49.74 to run away from the field in the 100 free.<\/p>\n<p>Mason won a pair of races (200 fly, 400 free) to highlight the women&#39;s competition.<\/p>\n<p>Lezak, a 25-year-old graduate of the University of California at Santa Barbara who&#39;s been training in nearby Irvine with Coach Dave Salo&#39;s Novaquatics team the last few years, was runner-up to Cal&#39;s Anthony Ervin at this year&#39;s World Championship Trials in the 50-100 frees.  Thus he&#39;ll get a chance at avenging that relay loss to the Lads Down Under come next month in Fukuoka.<\/p>\n<p>And he&#39;s more than looking forward to the opportunity.<br \/>\n&quot;That [relay] loss really rankled us,&quot; he said after his win.  &quot;They [theAustralians] made such a big deal out of beating us and we&#39;d like to return the favor in Japan.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Lezak&#39;s 100 pr is 49.15 from last year&#39;s Olympic Trials and this year ranks fifth globally with a 49.26 from the WCTs in Austin.  He said he had just come off weights earlier in the week and had been doing doubles until Thursday &#8212; when he &quot;only&quot; went a hard two-hour morning workout &#8212; so 49.7 in heavy training is an oustanding swim.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;I feel good about my training and I&#39;m in a much more confident frame of mind going into Japan than I was last year.  I&#39;m looking forward to swimming against Anthony [Ervin] and all the other great sprinters and of course my goal is to win a medal,&quot; he said, adding &quot;I want to get in the 48s too.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Salo said it was a &quot;solid&quot; swim and a good indication Lezak&#39;s training is on track.  &quot;He looked good in the water and he&#39;s pumped.  He&#39;s getting anxious about the meet [world championships] and he wants to prove he&#39;s on a par with all the top guys.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The old meet record was 50.46 from last year by  &#8212; you guess it &#8212;  the same Mr. Lezak.<\/p>\n<p>Keeping things all in the family, former Stanford All-America Gabrielle Rose, who swam at Sydney last year in the 200 IM, set a meet record of 56.62 en route to the women&#39;s 100 free title.  She picked up a second goal anchoring Irvine&#39;s victorious 400 free relay.<\/p>\n<p>Mason, an 18-year-old representing the Scottsdale AC, where she is coached by Jim Nickell, was third at last year&#39;s Olympic Trials in 200 fly, right behind runner-up, Kaitlin Sandeno.  This year Mason just missed a spot on the plane to Fukuoka when she finished third, half a second behind Shelly Ripple in the 200 fly (2:12.26) at the World Championship Trials.  But the disappointment didn&#39;t faze her in the least today, as she clocked a solid 2:12.57 to win going away over Canada&#39;s Jessica Deglau&#39;s 2:13.35.<\/p>\n<p>In the final women&#39;s race of the evening, the attractive blonde youngster held off 800 free champ Rachel Komisarz and Santa Barbara&#39;s Adrienne Binder<br \/>\nto win the 400 free in 4:16.98.<\/p>\n<p>Mason&#39;s time ranks her 36th globally and is her pr.  She was not among the Top 150 in the world last year.<\/p>\n<p>After the race she was interviewed for the tv broadcast by Mission Viejo&#39;s own Brian Goodell, a double world record-setter and Olympic gold medalist at Montreal in the 400-1500 frees, and said that<br \/>\n&quot;after the fly my arms were hurting.  But I warmed down and felt pretty good by the time of the 400 so I<br \/>\njust went for it.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Her persistence may also in part be due to the fact that the highpoint winner gets a spiffy new laptop.<\/p>\n<p>In other races, Novas&#39; Olympic 200 back silver medalist Aaron Peirsol won his specialty in 2:00.37.  He leads the world with his 1:56.56 from the Trials but made a rather uncharacteristic gaffe when he went on top of the lane line near the end of his second 50.<\/p>\n<p>Peirsol was so surprised he nearly stopped, then recovered his composure, flipped and won by more than five seconds.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;You don&#39;t do that and win a gold medal at the World Championships,&quot; his coach observed.<\/p>\n<p>Peirsol will enter his senior year at Newport Harbor High this fall and every college coach in America is anxiously waiting his decision as to what school &#8212; if any &#8212; he will attend in the fall of next year.<\/p>\n<p>However, the matter may be academic if Peirsol decides to take advantage of prize money offered gold medalists by U.S. Swimming at Fukuoka.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;He&#39;ll take the money and go to Harvard,&quot; joked one of his teammates.<\/p>\n<p>Actually he may take the money amd still be eligible to swim collegiately.  A &quot;deal&quot; is in the works between the NCAA and the U.S. Olympic Committee that would allow an athlete to win prize money at an Olympics or World Championships and still retain his collegiate eligibility if the money is funneled through the USOC.<\/p>\n<p>But first he has to win the title for any of this to matter. <\/p>\n<p>The women&#39;s 200 back went to Canadian record-holder Jennifer Fratesti (2:13.35) while countryman Mark Johnston &#8212; a Sydney Olympian &#8212; won the 400 freestyle (3:55.73. USC&#39;s Klete Keller (NCAA 200-500 free champ) was second and St. Petersburg&#39;s Robert Margalis third.<\/p>\n<p>Both Keller and Margalis will comepte at Fukuoka, the former in the 200 free and 800 free relay; the latter in the 1500 free-200 IM.<\/p>\n<p>The men&#39;s 200 fly went to Irvine&#39;s Jeff Somensatto, who was third at last summer&#39;s Olympic Trials in a pr 1:58.07.  Somensatto is a former All-America for Coach David Marsh&#39;s Auburn Tigers.<\/p>\n<p>Irvine has another Auburn swimmer, sprinter Scott Tucker who was the fourth-fastest 100 man last year and swam on the sprint relay at Sydney.<\/p>\n<p>Salo modeslty attributes this influx of ex-Southeast Conference stars to &quot;my great coaching&quot; and the fact that &quot;they&#39;re all trying to get Peirsol&#39;s phone number.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>              2001 TYR SWIM MEET OF CHAMPIONS<br \/>\n            Hosted by the MISSION VIEJO NADADORES<br \/>\n                      JUNE 21-24, 2001<br
