With four relays qualified, this team could make some noise at the Championships. You get double points on relays.

With the athletes we have swimming here, what are our expectations for the Meet? Top ten possibly?

by **DanFreibergerForHeisman** » Sun Mar 11, 2012 7:36 pm

We might have an outside shot at top 10 with an absolutely huge performance. I would think top 20 is realistic for sure.

We are qualified for four of the five relays. The schools in all five relays are the usual types like Cal, Stanford, USC, Texas, Tennessee, Auburn, Georgia, Florida, etc.

A majority of the swimmers in the individual competitions are from the top schools too so they will run away with the top spots.

Some of our qualifying times are pretty decent, so we could have a good shot at being one of the higher teams just underneath the dominant teams in the final standings.

Way to go, ladies. Congrats to Coach Collins and team.

Is there any television coverage for the championships? I imagine there is at least some sort of condensed package at some point on ESPNU or the like...

The NCAA web site has links for live scoring which I assume will be really good (it was pretty easy to follow along at the spring track and field championships at least).

The Championships start Thursday! Go Ponies!

Auburn will stream, free of charge, the preliminary sessions each of the three days and finals on Thursday night (the direct links can be found below). ESPN has the rights to stream Friday and Saturday finals and will do so at WatchESPN.com.
