The Women’s NCAA Championships are rapidly approaching, and to prepare yourself for the meet (and prep for the pick ’em contest), you can keep track of all of SwimSwam’s event-by-event previews and winner selections below.
Don’t miss a moment of our preview action and the concurrent comment section discussion – you can bookmark this page, which will be updated with links to each preview as we publish them. Disagree with our winner picks? Well, they are infallible, but if you really don’t buy it, you can leave your own picks, predictions, expectations in the comments, and/or sound off our sub-heading titles, I won’t stop, regardless of how bad the puns are or how far the quote or song title has to stretch.

The University of TekSucks will choke.
Book it!
Emphasis on “Sucks”. LOL!
Do you hate Stanford or Texas more I can’t tell
He hates whoever poses the biggest threat to Virginia. So he’ll probably start going after Cal/Florida/Tennessee soon
No shame in finishing runner-up to the Virginia dynasty! Sticklen and Cox will lead the Horns to a 2nd place standing!
I really enjoyed Coleman’s interview of Emma Sticklen. She sounds great and pretty funny, and of course she is the real deal in the pool.
