At risk of "beating a dead horse"....at least in respect to broaching this topic again! I had a number of conversations at convention with people who would like to see USMS move to a 3rd Championship meet in the fall for short course meters.
There are some great Zone meets going on...when you have 600+ going to Long Beach or New England why not up the ante a bit?
Thoughts?
The NE meet is already pretty much at its maximum capacity, calling it a national championship only means it will close earlier, not get bigger or faster. I don't know the situation at LB.
Spring nationals can already be SCM, of course.
By at capacity, do you mean the BU facility? If the meet was extended an extra day (like a National Champs) that would spread the events out more.
Has there been consideration of this at Convention?
