States as a member of -the Swim Team at this summer' s Olympic Games in Barcelona, Spain. We want to take this opportunity to express our pride in having an athlete of such tremendous caliber .from the Concord/Pleasant Hill Swim Team to make the Olympic team and to extend- our best wishes for much success in Barcelona. During his five years on the Concord/Pleasant Hill Swim Team, Pablo was a member of the 1984 Olympic team and won the Silver medal in the 100-meter Butterfly and the 200-meter Individual Medley events. In 1986, he set--and still holds--the world record in the 100-meter Butterfly event. After a near miss to make the 1988 Olympic team, .Pablo entered Yale Law School but never lost sight of his desire to make the 1992 team--and after a leave of absence from law school, he was' able to reach his goal. Pablo Morales is an . inspiration to athletes everywhere, but especially here in Contra Costa County. He still visits the Concord/Pleasant Hill Swim Team to teach clinics and to pass along words of support to aspiring young Olympians. His story is one of dedication and motivation and losses and victories; and no matter what takes place in Barcelona, he will always be a Gold Medal winner in Contra Costa County--Good luck Pablo!
