FORMAT
The

than 30 minutes before the beginning of the session. Heat sheets will be posted around the pool

lane. There will be no bullpen.

heats of the 1650 will be swum fastest to slowest, alternating girls and
boys. Girls and boys may be combined if

efficiency if deemed necessary by meet management, but will be scored
separately.
