  • It was said before the Stanford meet that the times were set high to encourage people to swim. Remember the meet is spread out over many days, unlike our Nats which are four days, and therefore have an incentive to make it harder to qualify. The diff is that you have to meet qual times at Worlds, or be DQd, but our Nats let you swim three even if you don't qualify.
