ENTRY TIMES: All entries must be specified in short-course yard (25-yard pool) times. Meter times must be converted to yard times. If a swimmer has a “no time” for an event, an approximate time should be given so that we can seed the swimmer in competition that closely approximates the swimmer’s level of proficiency. Any “no time” will be seeded alphabetically and swum in the first heat.
