Ledecky, Brooks Curry, Liendo, MacNeil and McIntosh are among the biggest participants.
Which means Katie Ledecky is participating in both north american stops to swim the 1500m in Toronto and the 800m in Indy.
Possible Ledecky vs McIntosh in the 400 free.
First comp back for Michelle Coleman after taking a break post SC Worlds
Maddy Wilson is obviously not European. Glad to see Meg Harris is taking the opportunity to get some short course experience before WCs.
