  • OK ... so, here are the questions I probably shouldn't post in pixels: If I was to enter a USS meet, I would only enter events I was confident I could make the Q-time, enter a meet I was confident I would train for so ... what kind of proof is required to enter the meets? on the off chance I missed the Q-time in the actual meet, what kind of penalty is there? Realistically, as much as I'd like to, I'm not going to make it to Austin. However, I will be in town and do want to swim a USS meet in May in Arizona. While I can register for USS, registering the times or getting them "viewed" seems like kind of a hassle. Do I need to go through that? Or, can I just register for USS and ensure I beat the Q times when I show up for the events?
