The field will be primarily comprised of age group swimmers, but some of the world’s best will also be in attendance this weekend at the Southern Zone South Sectional Championships in Orlando.
Headlining the action will be reigning world champions Summer McIntosh, Katie Ledecky and defending Olympic champion Bobby Finke.
In addition to Ledecky and Finke, other members of Florida’s pro group such as Kieran Smith, Natalie Hinds, Mark Szaranek and Nina Kucheran will be in the field, though Caeleb Dressel is absent from the entry list.
Ledecky is entered in essentially all of her primary and secondary events, while McIntosh is taking on some of her ‘off’ events.
Barring scratches, the two will go head-to-head in the 100 free and 800 free, while Ledecky is also entered in the 400 IM and the 200, 400 and 1500 free. In addition to the 100 and 800 free, McIntosh will also contest the 50 free, 100 back and 200 breast.

any chance of watching this from outside the u.s.?
I don’t mind paying if that’s what it takes.
and it doesn’t have to be live either…
No livestreams that we’ve found.

That’s quite a combination of events for McIntosh. And none of them being her best events. Next year, I expect her to add sychronized swimming and diving – LOL
McIntosh and Ledecky are such fearless swimmers
Here’s a completely unrelated question: where is McIntosh going to attend college? Isn’t she a junior or senior this year? Or is she turning pro?
She’s been a pro for a while. She swam in the ISL right after Tokyo.
She’s Canadian.
And she’s always been pro.
And she can attend college and be a pro swimmer.
What does being Canadian have to do with the question?
Finke in the 200 fly should be fun to watch. That unrested 1:57 he popped in Atlanta last year came out of nowhere.
Oh Christ it’s at Rosen. AKA the worst pool on this PLANET. NCSA’s will forever be my least favorite meet because of that pool.
I bet the Santa Clara kids would trade pools
How bad can it be? I stayed at Rosen Inn International a few weeks ago during an LPGA event. Not bad at all for $52 per night. There’s a Golden Corral smack down the street, jumpstarting my recent 10 pound weight gain.
The pool used to be awful but they’ve done tons of renovations and it’s really fast now
Renovations like what?
Its interesting that McIntosh is swimming at the same meets as lat year with the same lineups as last year
McIntosh and Ledecky about to throw down times that would win at Worlds
