Scratches aren’t due until Monday so usually Thursday-ish, if I remember correctly.
Kids can still use today’s results to seed in. |

| How does this work? Who gets invited to this meet? Is it like individual all stars where it’s the top 16+3 in each event? |

| It’s the top 8 in the county plus 2 alternates. |

| But how do the events work? 8Us don’t do any 50s in MCSL competition so what do they do at LC? |

The 8Us do LC 50s (most of these kids are club swimmers who have raced 50s before). Below is the program from last year. http://mcsl.org/documents/MCSL%20Coaches%20Invitational%20Long%20Course%20Meet%202022%20REVISED%20Program%20v02.pdf |

Top 16. |

Max number of events is 2 (does that count IM? Not sure.), so there are scratches and then they go deeper into the list. |

Quick LC overview: takes place at the Rockville swim center and 1 here (8 swimmers) of each event. Each event is double the length of the Saturday dual meet equivalent. So and 8 and under will swim 50 free instead of a 25 free. Events start from blocks.
Swimmers can swim 2 events total, including IM. But that is half the number at all stars so very competitive, and times count for USA swimming. Scratches are due tomorrow. Top times list on the MCSL website (under all star info) so you can see if your kid has a chance at swimming the meet. Good luck to all the swimmers who will qualify! |

| The seedings say they are incomplete. Does anyone know how incomplete— need to scratch my kid from some events but do t want to inadvertently scratch them out of the meet completely bc the seedings are missing a bunch of kids. Thanks for any insight! |

Your coach should know but from what I can tell, they are mostly complete and are definitely not "missing a bunch of kids"; so while they may change slightly, they won't change appreciably. Any kid in the top 8 is guaranteed in. The next 2 or 4 are alternates. Realistically, if you're not in the top 20 there's not much of a chance. |

| Kid’s coach wasn’t sure.kid is on top 8 - I was trying to confirm there weren’t a lot of missing swimmers before I scratched him out of some events. Thanks! |
