Seeding Procedures

Swimmers will be seeded (permitted to swim) based on the order shown on the attached psych sheets for each event.

In order to follow the new guidance regarding qualifyting times and seeding found in this year's meet announcement, the following general procedures were followed:

Swimmers with a provable entry time in an event were seeded prior to swimmers entered with at time from the next shorter distance (i.e., 500 for the 1000 and 1000 for the 1650.) .

Waivers were granted to some swimmers This determined their right to enter an event. However, those swimmers with waivers were seeded after the above two categories based on their best provable time for the longest freestyle distance they had swum. Longer distances were seeded before shorter distances.

LCM times were seeded as non-conforming times for the appropriate equivalent distance.and seeded ahead of swimmers who entered with shorter conforming distance entry times...

Entry times shown on the psych sheets were generally adjusted for those swimmers granted waivers and was done in order to permit them to be seeded consistent with the above

Coaches who believe their swimmer may have been improperly seeded should contact Bill Marlin, PVS Distance Coordinator to request a review of how their swimmer was seeded.
