The USC women's swim team
has gotten off to a fast start this
year. Two reasons are freshmen
Jude DeSando and Shelly Cramer.
DeSando competes in the 100,
200, and 400 meter individual
medleys and in the 100 yard free
style. She has qualified for the
AIAW in-each of these events. "So
far this year I have swam all the
best times," DeSando said.
"I started swimming when I was
seven. I competed on an AAU team
then and I've been going strong
ever since," DeSando said.
DeSando added that her mother
influenced her the most in
swimming. "She could see the
talents in me. She pushed and
made me go to practice. I'd cry,
but it's a good thing she did. After
the first couple of years I began to
love it."
DESANDO. a nativp of Rorkvillp
Md., says she has adjusted very
well to college life. "I feel like I'm .
at home, but I just don't see my j
parents," DeSando said. "I love
the campus here and I get along
especially well with my teammates,
which makes it a lot
easier."
Three of DeSando's high points
stick out in her mind most. "My
biggest thrill was being named
swimmer of the year in the
Washington, D.C. area, when I was
12. My second biggest thrill was
making the U.S. National team

thrill was finishing 4th in the Jr.
Olympics in the 200 meter individual
medley," she said.
DeSando has high praise for
Coach Woodburn and his program.
"He is really firm on the deck,
which is what you need, but off the
deck he is really understanding.
When you accomplish something
he lets you know he's proud. I love
him to death," DeSando said.
"THE PROGRAM here is really
what's making me improve. We
definitely work harder than any sport
1 know of. We swim two hours
in the morning, we come back at
night and swim three more hours.
We swim 8-10 miles a day and lift
weights. We do this six days a
week," DeSando said. "If 1 could

Cramer competes in the 100 and
200 yard butterfly and sometimes
the 100 and 200 yard freestyle. "My
best times so far this year have
been a 2:04.3 in the 200 fly and a
57.6 in the 100 flv." she said
"These both qualified me for the
AIAW's and are best times for me
which is really rare this early in
the season.
A native of the Virgin Islands,
Cramer got into swimming sort of
naturally. ,4I always liked athletics
and swimming was the one I stood
out in."
"My parents never pressured
me, in fact I quit once and when I
came back is when I really got
better," Cramer said.

CRAMER SAID being away
from home was no big problem for
ner. "I've been away from home
for two years, so it was not a
problem adjusting to being away
from family. I moved to Atlanta to
follow my coach. I moved in with a
family there. They lived really
close to the high school I went to
and it worked out well," Cramer
said.
Like DeSando, Cramer had high
praise for Coach Woodburn. "He's !
exactly what I wanted. I like him a

Cramer would like to see the {

I think wecan do easily."
