In prelims, swimmers qualify for one of three finals heats: the top eight finishers make the ‘A’ final, places nine through 16 in the ‘B’ final, and place 17 through 24 in the ‘C’ final. In finals, swimmers are locked into their respective final, meaning a swimmer in the B heat (spots 9-16) can only place as high as 9th or as low as 16th, even if they put up the fastest or slowest time of any heat in the final.
With that in mind, we’ll be tracking “Ups,” “Mids” and “Downs” after each prelims session. “Up” refers to swimmers in the ‘A’ final, “Mid” to swimmers in the ‘B’ final and “Down” to swimmers in the ‘C’ final.
TEAM STANDINGS AFTER DAY 3
Women
Texas- 677 Tennessee- 381 Florida- 369 Georgia- 322.5 South Carolina- 273 Texas A&M- 268 LSU- 248 Alabama- 236 Auburn- 180.5 Missouri- 177 Kentucky- 163 Arkansas- 135 Vanderbilt- 86Men
Texas- 505 Florida- 421.5 Tennessee- 327.5 Georgia- 309 Texas A&M- 264 LSU- 237 Alabama- 225 Auburn- 199 Kentucky- 176 South Carolina- 152 Missouri- 128The Texas women opened up a big lead in the team race heading into Thursday, and figure to extend it tonight as they put seven swimmers into ‘A’ finals and have 11 total second swims.
Florida and Tennessee are separated by just 12 points in the race for 2nd, and they had nearly the same results this morning in terms of ups/mids/downs.
Both teams have six ‘A’ final swims, but the Gators have a slight edge with two ‘B’ finalists and three ‘C’ finalists compared to Tennessee having one and two, respectively.
Texas A&M is hunting down South Carolina in the race for 5th, and although the Aggies have one more ‘A’ finalist than the Gamecocks, South Carolina figures to rack in some extra points tonight with six ‘C’ finals.

Tennessee also has five ‘A’ finalists and eight total top-16 swims, which should help distance them from Georgia in the race for third tonight.
The Vols notably had four men advance into the ‘A’ final of the 100 fly (spots 5-8) despite the absence of Jordan Crooks, who raced the 200 free and qualified 5th into the final.
