I see on the USMS website the dates are set for the summer nationals for Sunday August 8 through Thursday August 12.
I have a few questions.... where is the pool located in the city?
Why isn't the meet Wed through Sunday or Thurs to Monday?
What is the order of events?
There was a request by the championship committee that we agreed to which moved the relay from the end of the last day. It was explained to us that this will improve the accuracy of the team scores. Many relays at the end of the meet change swimmers, etc. It takes time to get that information accurate. Moving the relay earlier improves that.
The revised (last day only) order of events should be released soon. This assumes it is approved by the rules committee and then the executive committee.
