Meet Preview
We’ve taken a look solely at the Wave I meet and previewed some of the races and storylines to watch for, which you can find here.
Additionally, you can find all of SwimSwam’s Olympic Trials event previews here. While each preview is primarily geared towards the Wave II meet, each race has a Wave I “standout” featured, someone who has been on the rise lately and is expected to make a push to advance to Wave II.
GANDA PISCINA MANO
anybody else have problems accessing the live stream, despite allegedly being able to view? (DIRECT TV / ATT — looking your way!)
and how does one access the live timing via omega? there is some login page, but zero other info how to access!
this is crap! why can’t I watch live like every other event in sports?
I signed up for Olympic channel and a service. It still doesn’t work!
This is horse sheet. Most people don’t have TV Service which is required to watch Olympic Channel
So upset we can’t watch those we know swimming! C’mon USA Swimming!!

Disappointing that the USA Swimming’s streaming website for the prelims is down. They should have expected a high web traffic & made sure that the streaming service will be done properly =(
seems like USA Swimming website has crashed
Big time crash
