He finished nearly 10 seconds ahead of the field.<\/p>\n Eagle Aquatics\u2019 15-year-old Erika Pelaez<\/strong> won the 50 free in 25.42, less than a second off the national age group record for 15-16. She held off Ohio State\u2019s Amy Fulmer<\/strong> (25.76).<\/p>\n Indiana\u2019s Jack Franzman<\/strong> won the men\u2019s 50 free in 22.29 to hold off Kevin Gillooly<\/strong> (22.60), who was swimming unattached.<\/p>\n Ohio State\u2019s Emily Crane, Josie Panitz, Kitkat Zenick<\/strong> and Amy Fullmer<\/strong> won the 400 medley relay in 4:07.41.

Half the swimmers are in Greensboro, N.C., while the other half are in Irvine, Calif. The meet replaces the standard end-of-summer championships for senior-level and junior-level athletes, with the two usual events combined due to typical low turnout when the meets are around the same time as the Olympic Games. Older swimmers and 18-and-under swimmers had different time standards required for qualification. Most of the top American swimmers either just finished competing at the Olympics or are taking the summer off after narrowly missing the Olympic team.<\/p>\n\n
