Chad La Tourette, second in the 1650 and sixth in the 500 free last year, is one of the headliners for Stanford, which will also rely on the skills of Bobby Bollier, the 2011 runner-up in the 200 fly and 500 free and sixth-place finisher in the 100 fly. Meanwhile, Curtis Lovelace is coming off a pair of finals show- ings in the breaststroke events. Coach Skip Kenney will also ask for support from Morgan Priestley, Matthew Swanston and Matt Thompson, all indi- vidual scorers last year. Aaron Wayne was a key sprinter for the Cardinal in relay duty and will be expected to contribute on an individual basis this time around. , the No. 1 recruit in the country, leads Stanford’s freshmen. He’s a multi-event whiz and actually post- ed a high school time last year that would have won the NCAA title in the 200 IM.

However, in an event in which and will likely be 1-2 in either order in London, Pereira will probably have to settle for bronze. Hungary’s Laszlo Cseh could be the person most likely to complete the podium in London, winning silver medals at Beijing in the 200 fly, 200 IM and 400 IM. However, Pereira finished 2011 as the third-ranked swimmer in the 200 IM with a 1:57.35 from the Brazilian Long Course Nationals in May. Of course, Lochte and Phelps were in another stratosphere last year at Worlds, clocking 1:54.00 and 1:54.16, respectively. Pereira might also have a shot for a medal in the 400 IM. He finished last year ranked eighth in the event (4:12.52), but his time is only a little more than a second slower than the second fastest time of 2011 (Tyler Clary’s 4:11.17). Lochte turned in the No. 1 ranking with a 4:07.13. ❖

32 March 2012 AGSOTM AGE GROUP SWIMMER of the MONTH Trevor Layden—Jordan Portela’s coach at Lawrence Aquahawks in Kansas—says his young swimmer’s “hard work in the pool at practice and attention to detail is paying off in dividends right now.” The results of that hard work were evident at the Midwest All-Star Meet, Jan. 14-15, in Lawrence, where Portela competed as a member of the Missouri Valley team. Jordan earned the 11-12 boys high-point trophy and set meet records in the 50 yard back (26.40r, good for No. 3 in the NAG Top 10 list as of late January), 100 free (51.65, No. 5), 200 free (1:53.20, No. 10) and 50 fly (25.72, No. 10). He also claimed the No. 10 spot with his 50 free leadoff split (23.85) in the 200 free relay and took first in both the 500 free (5:07.65) and 100 fly (57.52). At last summer’s Central Zone Championships, Aug. 5-7, in Topeka, Kan., Portela came in second in both the 50 yard back (31.19) and 100 fly (1:07.22), third in the 200 free (2:15.68), fourth in the 50 free (27.88) and fifth in the 100 free (1:00.67p). One day, he would like to attend the University of Minnesota and follow in the footsteps of his brother, Anthony, a 2009 graduate and All-American, and sister, Chloe, a current freshman and member of the

Puerto Rican national team. ■ ■ ■ ■ JORDAN PORTELA ■ ■ ■ ■ He also would like to compete in the Olympics—just like his father, AGE 12 Antonio, who competed in 1984 at Los Angeles in the 100 meter free, swimming for Puerto Rico. ❖ Lawrence Aquahawks Lawrence, Kansas
