To find out which place is utilized for a particular age group/event, you can check the legislation on the MSI website (which passed unanimously!). For the State Championship, a separate set of time standards will be generated annually in September and published. All regular-season meets will utilize the NAG standards, which are quadrennially published immediately following each Olympiad. Those standards are about to be published by USA Swimming. |
