Swiss Timing announces their partnership with the NCAA as the official scoring and timing provider for the division 1 Men’s and Women’s swimming and diving championships through 2020.

“Coming off highly successful events at NCAA champs in Atlanta in 2016 and Indianapolis in 2017, we welcome the opportunity to provide timing equipment and services to the fastest short course meet in the world”, said Matt Murphy, President of Swiss Timing USA.

Deployment of the Swiss Timing championship swimming scoring and timing system includes: the world’s most accurate timer, most reliable touchpads, most consistent relay break detection sensor and the Swiss Timing high speed video (HSV) system, which records at 100 frames/sec. The HSV system allows officials to confidently confirm relay exchange disqualifications.

“The athletes competing in this elite competition have invested countless hours training for NCAA champs and they deserve a world class timing and scoring system, just like Olympians do every 4 years. We honored to provide the best timing and scoring system in the world for the most important swim meet of their college career”, said Murphy.

Wonder how much Omega paid the NCAA to become the official provider? I doubt the money Omega is paying will cover the costs the NCAA or the host institutions will have to pay to bring in the Omega equipment.
And not to nitpick, but if you’re going to call yourself the ‘Official Scoring and Timing Provider for NCAA D1 Swimming and Diving’, you should probably provide/run all the equipment. Hy-tek will be providing the scoring and management of the meets, and the host institutions will provide the equipment and run the diving portion of the meets.

Sounds like Omega kicked the competition’s ass and now they’re here whining anonymously about it. Good look for you guys, keep it up.
