Women currently stand at 16 swimmers with Caitlynn Moon 1st alternate. Kassidy Cook qualified in diving for Stanford yesterday so that should bump one of their swimmers out and get Caitlynn in. No diving qualifiers yet, but 3m and tower still to go today and tomorrow.

Men look like they will get 7 swimmers plus whatever relay swimmers (up to 4) they want to bring. 3 divers qualified on 3m last night as well.

Thanks for providing that. When you posted the Psych Sheet, I pulled some of that. I didn't include their Yr. I thought about it once I was just about done, but too lazy to go back. I also don't have the visibility for Relays.

I also wanted to get more info on Henshcel and platform results.

Here is what I had pulled together. I also figured you would post it, so I waited.
--------------------------------------------

2017
Last year we finished 16th with 87 Points. From the looks, we had 4 Swimmers qualify on Individual events. And we had 2 Divers

Relays Only: Ayar, Gonzalez, Koster, Tjon-A-Joe

Bolleter: 50/100 Fr
Bonetti: 100/200 Bk - 5 pts
Castillo Luna: 100/200 Br - 23 pts
Tybur: 100/200 Br - 1 pt

Henschel: 1M/3M/Platform - 28 pts
Thornton: 1M/3M - 6 pts

This year, we have the following qualified, plus the 3 Divers:

2018 (Seed)
Bonetti: (9th) 200IM; (23) 100 Bk; (17th) 200Fly
Castillo Luna: (18th) 100Fly; (10th) 100Br; (5th) 200Br
Martinez: (19th) 100Fly; (16th) 200Fly
Olson: (18th) 200Br
Tybur: (12th) 200Br
Van Overdam: (19th) 200IM; (26th) 400IM; (27th) 200Br
Walker: (22nd) 200Br
--------------------------------------------

Based on seeding and Dive qualifiers... it would seem a Top 10 is likely? If things fall our way, maybe even a Top5? Or is that too ambitious? I didn't want to be too presumptuous because timing sports like swimming, there are so many close times, but this team looks amazing.

Another question I have, as I'm not as collegiate swimming knowledgeable... It would seem to me a school like the Sips have an advantage at the NCAA Championships. Because the BXII only has 3 teams (Sips, TCU & WV), the Sips can really rely on tappering and focusing on the NCAAs, where as they are 3 deep in many relays over WV. Probably 4 deep against TCU.

I think this link helps answer my question...

It doesn't dig into the details or projections, but gives an overview by school.

I love the direction we're headed. ">

It's official Caitlynn Moon is in. She will swim the 500 free, 1650 free and 200 free.
There were two scratched. Stanford scratched freshman Katie Glavinovich from the meet to make room for All-American diver and U.S. Olympian Kassidy Cook. NC state Ariel Finke also scratched from the meet

The Aggies and Stanford will have a full compliment of 18 swimmers and divers at the meet which starts Wednesday.

Expect some firework from Aggies

Women start off with a 9th place finish in the 800 free around a second slower than their SEC winning time.

Claire Rasmus led off in 1.43.01 and was second to Stanford after the first leg.
Katie Portz also was faster than previous with a 1.44.26.
The 3rd and 4th legs were much slower than SEC's
I believe the lead off leg of 143.01 by Claire Rasmus is a school record

Galat moved up from her B-final seeding to the A-final. Our only "misses" for the day were the
200 free relay, seeded 10th, and Rasmus, seeded 9th in the 500 free, as they both missed the B-final.

Tennessee was DQed for "Stroke Infraction swimmer #4: Other - Misc". Swimmer 4 is freestyle. So what could the stroke infraction be? It is freestyle. I thought you could dog paddle is you wanted.

Ahh, google's my friend.

"Tennessee was originally sixth with a 3:29.17, but was disqualified for their freestyle leg kicking on her back."

Can't swim one of the other three strokes during freestyle leg of a medley relay.

After a very slow start, things finally started to stabilize. We are now down 29 points vs psych sheet scoring. I was hoping we could challenge Cal for 2nd in the meet (nobody is touching Stanford for 1st), but I'm guessing that's out the window now. We will now have to battle Michigan for 3rd.

- 4x200 free relay finished 9th vs 5th on psych sheet. minus 10 points

- 4x50 free relay finished 19th vs 11th on psych sheet. minus 12 points

- 500 free Rasmus finished 19th vs 9th on psych sheet minus 9 points

- 200IM finished 3,4,15 vs psych sheet 1,11,13. plus 4 points

- 50 free Gastaldello finished 5th vs 7th psych sheet. plus 2 points

- 4x100 medley finished 7th vs 5th psych sheet. minus 4 points

Can't swim one of the other three strokes during freestyle leg of a medley relay.
It sounds like the rule implemented a couple years ago... often referred to as "The Lochte Rule." It has gone several iterations. I think the current iteration is once the feet leave the wall your shoulders have to be PV towards the breast before you can kick (regardless of scissor/alternating/butterfly kick). Since the only real requirement for backstroke is being on your back... it violates the rule you mention of can't swimming any of the other 3 strokes.

I'll have to look at the video, out of curiosity.

Still sliding a little. Rasumus and Caneta were projected A final and slipped to B. Also, Gastaldello didn't swim the 100 fly and was projected B final.

We just haven't had anybody with a positive surprise. Hope we can hang on to 3rd. Not sure how Michigan is performing vs form.

Rasmus made the A Final.

Texas' diving is going to keep them in it, too. They currently have 2 in position to A Final on 3m with 3 rounds left in prelims. Louisville is also in the mix.

You are right, brain malfunction. I meant Bratton in the backstroke. Seeded 8th, finished 11th in prelims.

ETA: Pickrem's 3:59.05 is a school record.

We're going to need some big swims tomorrow to hold on to 3rd. Good thing we have the 200 breast tomorrow.

We have 6 up/1 down + an A relay led by Pickrem, Galat, Belousova, and Esther Gonzalez in the 200. Gastaldello made the 100 free final and Bratton snuck into the A final for the 200 back. Taylor Pike made the 200 fly B final and unfortunately 5th seeded Quah was DQed this morning.

We're in good shape to keep 3rd against our competitors:
MIchigan 4/1 + A relay
Louisville 2/1 + A relay
Texas 0/1 + A relay

Based on prelim finishes + 1650 psych sheet and excluding diving, I add up the following final scores:

289 Ags
261 Michigan
241 Louisville
217 t.u.

Except for Pickrem/Galat in the 200 breast, most of our points are at the bottom of the A finals so not much downside risk to our point total. Michigan would need a crazy strong performance to close the gap.

I don't know how the diving stacks up other than Ags and Michigan each have one diver in prelims.

Bratton finishes 4th in the 200 back (1:50.74). Michigan finished with 21 pts in the 1650 so we're still doing well.
