Cal had themselves a morning for the ages. They picked up 52 points over their seeds. Texas were pretty good too picking up 30.5. The other big gainer on the morning was Harvard who picked up 48 points over seed.
Adding yesterday’s points to today’s scored prelims and the scored psych sheet for the next two days there is now a projected score of 452 for cal 358.5 for Indiana and 354.5 for Texas. However, diving prelims for today and the diving events from the next two days haven’t been factored into those numbers yet.
Texas return 81 diving points from last year. Cal’s projected swimming point advantage is currently at 97.5, over that 81 point threshold.
If Cal gains 20.5 more points than Texas over their seeds every day at this meet, the swimming point advantage will be unbridgeable by divers; however, their performance this morning was extremely strong and this type of point gain may not be repeatable.
That means that as things stand this meet is a toss up. Good news for swimming fans. Every point counts. Tight finishes can decide everything.
Indiana have strong diving too and can’t be counted out yet, but their gains vs seed lagged far behind Texas and Cal this morning. The Hoosiers project to a gain of only 6.5 points over their seeds tonight.

Heckfire Tennessee is the team under performing after this morning by -29, last week their Lady Vols were down I think -30! The difference for the MAN Vols is we have great diving to make us look better! If ZipZenger can win tonight we gonna be vaulted into the top ten! Yea for diving!
Highest paid coach in country has 0 points scored today!!! He has been there long enough to recruit and develop!
Yeah he’s really done a pretty underwhelming job at ASU
Lost Cameron Craig too after getting him down to I believe a 1:32. #Overrated
Texas got two in the finals of the 1 meter. Cal actually did better than before but their diver was 2nd alternate. Tennessee has one up one down. Indiana has one up.
What is Michigan doing? They look sick even if they aren’t! Bottom’s got to get this right sometime soon.
They were pretty good last year iirc. Women looked pretty good so idk what’s going on.
Cal has very little room to move up and plenty if room to move down. The opposite is true for Texas, excepting Townley’s 500.
And Kibler’s 50
Kibler was 19.0 twice hopefully he can hold on to that speed
400 MR.. They’ll probably get top 3
Don’t look now, but Ohio State could beat Michigan at this meet
Rest up boys and get after it tomorrow! Go Blue
I’m struggling to comprehend where Stanford is now. And Devine, most of their points attribution, is a senior.
Levant, Mestre, Shoults are all out. They would have been big points and all 3 would have contributed on relays (Shoults on 800 FR, Mestre is the best sprinter on the team, and Levant can do anything)
They’re missing Shoults and LeVant due to health reasons, really going to hurt them at this meet, but here’s hoping they both recover strong for next season.
I’m a Stan Fan. I think you have to go all the way back to 1979 (pre-Skip Kenney) to see a worse Day 1 prelims performance. Stanford finished 15th in 1979. Especially disappointing is the performance of the vaunted D-group in the 500 (no qualifiers).
