NBAC hosts their meet at st. Mary’s- which team are you on? I thought that the only meets this weekend were NCI, RMSC and NBAC
I’m not the PP but the PVS website says Mako and PAC are hosting meets this weekend.

But US Open cuts are harder than Winter Jrs.
A good number of swimmers skipped US Open to go to Worlds, so open was a bit slower than would be typical.

This. And NCAP was well represented at the US Open.

NCI is a money-maker for NCap. That’s why they run it

Age group swimmers are the ones that earn clubs the most money, so some clubs like to take their age groupers to a winter championships. Obviously jr nationals wouldn’t fit the bill.

Sure, but different clubs target different national meets. Clubs can't attend all meets.

RMSC and NCAP host their own meets the same weekend as Winter Juniors.

Just curious - do they attend a different meet instead? Didn’t see them in MM. Or RMSC?
