College Swimming Preview: 10/16/17 – 10/22/17

The college swim season really heats up this week with the highly-anticipated Texas-Florida-Indiana triangular meet on Friday and Saturday. That could give us a rematch in the ongoing Caeleb Dressel-Joseph Schooling rivalry, as well as pit 200 free stars Townley Haas and Blake Pieroni against each other.

A few other top-tier programs will be competing: Georgia travels to Wisconsin and Northwestern on back-to-back days, ACC stalwarts Louisville take on Michigan, Auburn gets Texas A&M in an SEC showdown and we get to see the new-look Virginia Cavaliers under head coach Todd Desorbo take on Pitt and LSU in a tri meet. In addition, NC State will battle Duke and Penn State.

Below is a list of the D1 meets we’ll be covering at SwimSwam this week. If we missed any, please leave them in the comments and we’ll get them added.

Predicting we see Schooling in the medley relay, freestyle relay, 100 fly, and 200 fly. Dressel in the medley relay, freestyle relay, 100 breast, and 100 free. I don’t think we’ll get a true showdown between the two in the 50 free or 100 fly like how we are anticipating. Very random, but I would love to see Dressel v. Haas v. Pieroni in the 200 free.. I think that would be something to watch based on the past LC season.
