Swimmers and relay teams not checked-in will be scratched from that event. Athletes who have checked in, been seeded, and fail to swim the event will be barred from their next scheduled individual event.

All entry times and USA Swimming memberships will be verified via the SWIMS database.  Any athlete not achieving a QT may be asked to prove the entry time to the Meet Director prior to the start of the meet.
