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 don't think there are any heats. Every event consists of only the main. I would not want the responsibility of choosing who swims in what event aside from the no brainers like Phelps in the IM races and Hansen in the *** races.
I should have said "fill the lanes" instead of "fill the heats."
I think they should do mixed relays instead of all male and all female relays. Unfortunately, I don't think the relays will be particularly close. Barring a DQ or something strange, U.S. will win the 2 male relays and Australia will win the 2 female relays. But it would be really interesting if they were mixed.
The US seems to be walking all over the Aussies in the points game. We just lost the 400 free to Hackett (Vanderkaay wound up right behind him) but we took 2,3, and 4th so we actually got more points that they did in that race.
So far it looks as though this will be a good meet to watch this weekend. We just took 1,2,3 in the mens 200 IM. Phelps, Lochte, and Margalis respectively. Incredible performances by all of our athletes so far.
EDIT: Forgot to add that Phelps was within 1 second of his WR. Impressive indeed.
