This meet is in PRELIM/FINALS MEET FORMAT!

**Prelims will be swum in the morning sessions for individual events, and the top 8 swimmers at prelims in each single age group will return at night to compete in Finals (No more than 2 single age groups in each event).

**Scratches for Finals – As soon as the results for an event are finalized during prelims, the 8 finalists plus 2 alternates will be posted and also announced. Swimmers will have 30 minutes after the announcement is made to scratch from finals at the scratch table near the entrance to the pool if they do not intend to return to swim in finals that evening. Once the scratches are tabulated and finalized, the final list will be posted that shows the top 8 finalists who will swim in finals, plus 2 alternates. Alternates will be put in the event if any of the top 8 finalists listed on final list don’t show up at finals.

**All individual awards are based on a swimmer’s place at finals.

**Each finalist’s name will be announced at finals before each race!

**No relays swim at finals. All relays swim as timed finals in the prelim session and awards will be given based on those results.
