Bonus – Bella Sims
A human Swiss Army Knife, Sims, is entered in a staggering 11 events. While it is highly, highly, highly improbable that she will swim all of her events over the course of the next week, we thought it would be an interesting table to see. All told, if she were to swim every event and make every final, she would have raced 9500 meters.

The Walsh sisters aren’t stars?
No 200 for Alexy?
MeetMobile is updated:
Sims scratches the 100 Fly in favor of the 400 Free. She’s the only scratch on the women’s side.
Dillon Hillis does not appear on the 100 Breast psych sheet. This is his only cut, so he appears to have pulled out of the meet.
A couple big names dropped the 400 Free on the men’s side, including Drew Kibler, Luca Urlando, Alex Enyeart, Baylor Nelson, and Ivan Puskovitch. Kibler appears to be going all in on sprint freestyle events. Urlando has already scratched the 100 Free and 200 IM, so he appears to be all in on fly and the 200 Free. Enyeart and Puskovitch both still have the 800, 1500, and 400 IM.… Read more »
Is there any international coverage via VPN??
Does any other country have semi finals for a trials meet? Seems exhausting.
The Chinese team’s trials also held a semi-final, the two countries in accordance with the Olympic schedule of competition, the other countries of the trials did not find a semi-final
This is why the US is often successful in the Olympics. Because the trials is organized and the selection of athletes is based on the same schedule as the Olympics.
It’s Christmas Eve for U.S. swimming fans.
And the best part is Super Christmas is only a month and a half away.
Watch!
Bella Sims ends up only swimming the 400 FR, 200 FR, 100 FR, 200 BK.
“only” lol
Some quite swimmer-friendly schedules for most.
Then you look at Bella’s schedule and shudder.
Good luck to all the American swimmers during trials. And I hope the crowds enjoy a real spectacle.
I looked at it and thought – ‘pretty normal teen meet’ just not at elite level. When LSC change went to 4 days and u could swim 3 events a day premium/final. But u only swam the mile once. I always skipped the 1Ba
Bella will scratch half her events
