As expected, Stanford took control of the meet this morning. Before accounting for the mile and diving Stanford project to score 126 points tonight. Cal have 82 projected points in this morning’s events. Additionally the Cardinal are seeded to score 30 points in the mile. Cal have no entries in the mile.
That all adds up to a projected pre platform diving final score of 456 for Stanford and 410 for Cal. That’s a big enough margin that Stanford could DQ the 400 free relay and still win the meet. At this point a Stanford DQ on that relay and a bad performance in the mile is probably necessary for Cal to win the team title.
Additionally the biggest question mark at the meet right now is the health of Abbey Weitzeil‘s right arm. Weitzeil injured it in the 200 medley relay final last night, and swam with it wrapped this morning. After her prelims swim she appeared to be in a lot of pain. If Weitzeil is forced to scratch the 100 free final (she’s seeded 4th), Cal’s already slim title chances evaporate completely.
Both Cal and Stanford essentially held seed this morning. Stanford are seeded with 3 fewer points than they had on the psych sheet from this morning’s events. Cal lost 7 points from seed this morning.
Virginia picked up the most projected points this morning. They project to score 63 tonight, a gain of 29 from the psych sheet projection. With 3 8th place seeds tonight they are in a position to potentially move up even more tonight. They are currently projected to finish 16 points behind their conference rival NC State for 5th.
This is a team battle that could come down to the 400 free relay. In that event Virginia are seeded 8th tonight and NC State are 10th, a clear opportunity for Virginia to gain points vs seed tonight.
The other possible big swing event in the race for 5th is the 1650. Virginia don’t have any swimmers and NC State are seeded to score 20 points (they have the 8, 9, 27,and 36 seeds). A good result for NC State in the mile could lock down 5th place. A bad result could leave the door wide open for Virginia.
The biggest drop off this morning came from Texas who are seeded with 36 points tonight, 20 fewer than the psych sheet. A DQ by Remedy Rule in the 200 fly left Texas with Claire Adams 13th seeded 100 free as their only individual swim tonight.

State milers bageled, and you didn’t factor in diving for Tejas….
Hasn’t Remedy Rule DQ’ed in the 200Fly before at NCAAs?
yes, in 2017: https://swimswam.com/remedy-rule-200-fly-dq-correct/
Stanford not as dominate as everyone predicted! Cal gave them a run for their money that’s for sure.
Please learn the difference in usage between “dominant” and “dominate.”
Wow! Really??!!! Apparently people knew what I was talking about by the number of up votes!
Yea UVA! They’re up and coming, possibly for a team title down the line?
