H2ounds Invitational at Loyola Maryland, not on the list, is 12/4-12/5 with Marist, Loyola, Iona, and St. Peter’s all competing on their mid-season tapers
Just realized someone already commented this one. My bad.
One meet to watch this weekend is the D3 Connecticut Cup at Wesleyan. Coast Guard is undefeated and has a young, talented men’s team that has the potential to upset traditional powerhouse Connecticut College this weekend. Lots of fast D3 swimming sure to be taking place up there.
Total Performance Invite at Kenyon too
Texas Invitational is my third most favorite meet of the year (after NCAAs and TAGS). Lots of energy around the pool, and fast swimming all around. Fun weekend coming up.
Know if this is going to be streamed anywhere?
