Now with 2017 U.S. Nationals underway and the chance to enter/edit picks for the Pick ’em contest closed, you can now see yours and everyone else’s selections for the meet.
There were certainly some surprises this morning, including Cassidy Bayer and Tom Shields missing the A-final in the 200 fly and Zach Apple taking the top seed in the men’s 100 free. Only two entrants (0.004%) picked Apple to finish in the top-6 in the 100 free, both putting him 6th. Based on his morning swim, he sure shapes up well to finish higher than that. Also, 10% picked Bayer to win the 200 fly.
Check out the full recap from this morning’s preliminaries here.

What the key to winning a contest like this?
I have all 6 picks in the women’s 100 finals, and 5 of 6 in the men’s 100 finals.
But you have to get the order correct as well.
Of all the entries only one person selected Zach Apple for any place and it was 6th in the 100 free. Clearly should throw a wrench in selections.
Just realized this was already stated in the post… My bad! Thought I had made a striking discovery :p
