SCORING SYSTEM
Correctly picking a swimmer to place:
- 1st – 7 points
- 2nd – 5 points
- 3rd – 4 points
- 4th – 3 points
Correctly picking a swimmer to place in the top 4, but putting them in the wrong spot, will earn you 1 point.
Picks will close at 6pm Eastern Time on Saturday, July 20th, and at that time, we will post everyone’s picks for them to see.
You CAN go in and edit your responses up until 6 PM on Saturday. You can also use this “edit responses” ability to go in and print or save your answers.
The tie-breaker for prizes, if necessary, will be the most correctly-picked winners in the relevant time period, then 2nd-place finishers, then 3rd-place finishers, etc. in the relevant time period.

When will we be able to view our entries?
I thought I’d enter but then ‘US and Canada only’ ok then…
You can enter. Lots of people from outside Canada and USA do I think. Just can’t win prizes .
This is correect.
I can’t get into the site..any way other than google..the site freezes
Hey Mindy – this is the only way to enter. Might try updating your browser, or using Google’s browser (Chrome) if you’re having issues.
Luca Urlando, 200 fly. Wait… nvm.
Well i just picked Finland for first, second, third, and fourth in the women’s 4×100 medley relay part deuce,
I think you need to fix the google form…
what’s up with the Finland only race? I only picked Finland for first and left 2nd, 3rd and 4th empty.
it’s fixed now!
It’s only letting me choose among the top 6 Seeds in the Men’s 200 IM. Any way we can get the full list of seeds added?
I know this has been discussed before, but never feel like a solid reason was given. How/why would this affect college eligibility, as it doesn’t cost anything to enter, so its pretty similar to free march-madness style brackets?
You think the NCAA isn’t going to try to stomp out fun wherever they can??
The form looks like the women’s medley relay is listed twice (last 8 questions) ?
