U.S. Nationals are just a few weeks away in Indianapolis, with the Americans selecting their World Champs and World University Games teams for later this summer. We’ve gotten started with our yearly event-by-event previews, and now we’re compiling them all in one place.
Bookmark this page to keep tabs on our previews as they drop. We’ll be updating as we preview each individual race. If you’re the predicting type, you can add your own predictions for posterity in the comments section.
2017 U.S. Nationals Picks & Previews
Click the event name to follow the link to its full preview. We’ll also list the swimmers who would likely qualify for the World Championships if our picks turn out – that’s the top two in each Olympic-distance event, the winners of the non-Olympic events (the 50 fly, back and breast along with the men’s 800 free and women’s 1500 free, which are still considered non-Olympic events by USA Swimming for Worlds selection) and the top 6 in the 100 and 200 frees.

The list on this page needs to be updated with Worrell not entered in the womens 200 fly. Cassidy Bayer would be second instead.
No women’s 100 free?
So are we just not going to predict the men’s 200 and 400?
Also, You’d think you’d have done the women’s 100 free by now considering it’s one of the first women’s events?
Nah – I’m not sure what you’re going to do, but the meet doesn’t start until Tuesday, so still plenty of time for the previews. Thanks for your patience.
Won´t the men 100 free be update as Ervin won´t swim it?
Does Adrian get anxiety attacks before his big races? He put so much into his training, I can’t blame him if he does.
I’ve seen him make a kind of nauseating burp or gag before a couple of his championship races.
You might want to alter your 100 free pick for the men’s relay since Anthony didn’t even enter the 100 free.
