The Mutual of Omaha Duel in the Pool is Tuesday
In just its second year, the Mutual of Omaha Duel in the Pool – held this year in Irvine, Calif., on Aug. 2 – will be a coming out party for some young stars, a chance for established stars to continue their domination and a chance for standouts entering their final quadrennial to further cement their legacies.

I agree about age group participation for boys. At USA swimming meets in our area, we typically have more than 2x the number of girls' heats compared to boys' heats. High school swimming is still somewhat popular, but unfortunately many of those participants aren't year-round swimmers.
Strange that our men's team is so strong despite this problem. It seems like right now we're riding the strength of Phelps and the Texas boys. Hopefully, we're not headed for a downturn when those guys retire.
