Though\u00a0<strong>Michael Phelps\u00a0<\/strong>pulled out of the meet on Tuesday, there is still enough start power to make for an exciting lineup, and leave us with a number of great races to watch.<\/p>\n<p>Here are 5 events next\u00a0weekend that are sure to impress.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Women&#8217;s 400 IM<\/h2>\n<p>Half of the potential\u00a0Olympic Trials final could match up next weekend in Atlanta.\u00a0<strong>Maya DiRado\u00a0<\/strong>was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/video-interview-maya-dirado-talks-about-3-meet-wins\/\" target=\"_blank\">on fire in Mesa<\/a>, and has\u00a0the tenth fastest time in the world this year.\u00a0<strong>Elizabeth Beisel<\/strong> is a two time Olympian in the event and currently holds the world&#8217;s eighth best time.<\/p>\n<p>2015 NCAA champion\u00a0<strong>Sarah Henry\u00a0<\/strong>will also be in the mix in this race.\u00a0Though seeded sixth, 2016 NCAA Champion\u00a0<strong>Ella Eastin\u00a0<\/strong>is\u00a0continuing\u00a0her short course speed into long course, and finished third in the 400 IM in Mesa.\u00a0<strong>Katie Ledecky\u00a0<\/strong>is also entered in both IMs, in addition to her four freestyles.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Men&#8217;s 200 Freestyle<\/h2>\n<p>In January\u00a0<strong>Townley Haas\u00a0<\/strong>swam a 1:48.35 in the 200 freestyle at the Arena Pro Swim Series in Austin. That was before his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/texas-townley-haas-crushes-200-free-ncaa-american-record-with-130-46\/\" target=\"_blank\">scorching short course American Record<\/a> in March that left <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/townley-haas-impresses-and-excites-imaginations-at-mens-ncaa-championships\/\" target=\"_blank\">swim fans wondering<\/a> what the 19 year old could put together this summer. Though not yet Omaha, Haas will swim the race this weekend, along with other NCAA stars\u00a0<strong>Jack Conger\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0<strong>Caleb Dressel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Women&#8217;s 100 Freestyle<\/h2>\n<p>Many of the United States&#8217; top sprint freestyle threats are coming together a month ahead of Trials.\u00a0<strong>Simone Manuel\u00a0<\/strong>is the top seed, followed by\u00a0<strong>Lia Neal\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0<strong>Amanda Weir<\/strong>.\u00a0<strong>Natalie Coughlin<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Shannon Vreeland<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Katie Ledecky<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Felicia Lee,\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0<strong>Natalie Hinds\u00a0<\/strong>complete the top eight.<\/p>\n<p>That potential Championship final includes the 2015 NCAA top three in the short course event. Five of the top eight seeds are 2012 Olympians.\u00a0<strong>Olivia Smoliga<\/strong>\u00a0was a sprinting force in the small pool in March and could rise into the mix next weekend as well.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Men&#8217;s 100 Freestyle<\/h2>\n<p>Though the men&#8217;s race lacks as much depth as the women&#8217;s,<strong> Nathan Adrian\u00a0<\/strong>has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/video-interview-nathan-adrian-made-mesa-more-of-a-training-meet\/\" target=\"_blank\">consistently quick<\/a> in the sprint freestyles and he&#8217;ll be up again in Atlanta. He holds the world&#8217;s fifth best 100 at the moment. Dressel could be a force in this race as well.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Men&#8217;s 100 Breaststroke<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Andrew Wilson\u00a0<\/strong>leads the way after dipping under a minute earlier this year in Austin, giving him the world&#8217;s current 12th best time. Age group star\u00a0<strong>Reece Whitley\u00a0<\/strong>will challenge him, as will\u00a0<strong>Josh Prenot\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0<strong>Will Licon\u00a0<\/strong>who went <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/will-licon-scorches-200-breast-in-148-12-for-ncaa-american-record\/\" target=\"_blank\">1-2\u00a0in the 200 breaststroke<\/a> in March.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many Olympians and Olympic hopefuls are choosing next weekend&#8217;s Atlanta Classic Swim Meet over the Arena Pro Swim Series in Charlotte.
