[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So at a meet with prelims and finals, if there is one final with 8 lanes, typically there will be 8 qualifiers and 2 alternates. My question is if you're #11, should you be peripherally aware that people might scratch, so you might end up swimming, or do they never go further than the qualifiers and alternates called (i.e, if 3 qualifiers scratched, there would be an empty lane)? Just wondering as one of ours is getting close to the top of their age bracket and is starting to get close to the top finishers.[/quote] Yes they go further down the list- Your coach will inform your swimmer if they scratch into a final. My swimmer has scratched into finals several times. It is very common on Sunday nights of a three/four day meet. [/quote]
