Several of the 2016 midseason invites for NCAA teams are now in the books, with swimmers breaking Pool Records, NCAA Records, and American Records this past weekend. While a few big invites are yet to come, namely the Georgia Fall Invite and Texas Invite, we’ve put together a list of the top 10 swimmers in each event from the invites that have been swum so far. The lists in this article only include times from the meets throughout last weekend for the women. The men’s version will be published shortly.
You can find full results for each meet by clicking the links below, which includes all meets that uncluded times that made it into the top 10:
(Note: Results are compiled from INVITES ONLY this past weekend. The times listed are from the USA Swimming database, so if any swimmers are missing from the list that should be on it, we’ll update accordingly)

It’s crazy that Nicole Stafford at a 1:45 200 freestyle mid-season will likely be left off of Stanford’s 800 free relay at NCAAs. Stanford is crazy deep.
Over/under on where Ledecky ranks in the 1650 after the rest of the invites? Top 16? Would she make a semi-final?
Looks like teams that distinguished themselves over the weekend were Texas A&M, Mizzou, Kentucky, NC State, Ohio St, and Stanford.
Maybe include Big 10 swimmers’ times from the Big 10 – Team USA Dual Meet?
CraigH – there’s a full list of times available to view on the internet, here we were focusing on helping break down last weekend’s invites because there were so many going on at once.
The 200 back was so deep at the OSU meet.
I mean Kentucky and Standford alone will make up a good chunk of the backstroke finals at NCAAs
Wow, this is great, Lauren. Thanks so much. Please keep us posted .
Thanks!
Awesome work keep it up swimmers and SwimSwam!
