I saved about thirty of these little guys from my pool this morning. Any ideas on ID? Tucson, AZ. I was thinking possibly a wolf spider carrying it's babies fell in. They were in between 1/4 and 1/2 inch dls. Three are now living with me!

Edit: after looking at pics these don't really look like wolf spider babies. Possibly A. Chalcodes?

Just found today that some of my Scotophaeus blackwalli's babies can be seen
inside the egg sac now.

Agelenopsis pennsylvanica (Grass spider). Wild caught in Illinois. Not a great picture, but you can see the long spinnerets that differentiate it from the wolf spider, which people commonly confuse it with (myself included). I actually caught this guy after he wandered into my basement. At first I thought he was a wolf spider, then I thought he was a mature male looking for a female because he wasn't in his web, and now I'm not sure. If grass spiders have an ultimate molt, I don't think he or she has hit it yet. He's not as big as other grass spiders I've seen, no sign of the enlarged palps, and he or she readily built a funnel web in their enclosure.
