Stanford, despite a rough go of it in the 200 back where neither <strong>Janet Hu<\/strong> or <strong>Ally Howe<\/strong> made the A-final, has the team title locked up, and Cal is securely in second.<\/p>\n<p>The Texas A&amp;M Aggies entered the day with a 39-point lead over Georgia for third and only extended that lead in prelims, placing four swimmers plus a relay in A-finals and finishing as the biggest over-achiever of the session. If all seeds hold in finals, the Aggies will out-score their psych sheet projections by some 31 points.<\/p>\n<p>Want some team drama? Check out fourth and fifth place, which will come down to the Georgia Bulldogs and Texas Longhorns. Yes, <strong>Carol Capitani<\/strong> will have to get by her old squad and her mentor, <strong>Jack Bauerle<\/strong>, to take home one of the trophies awarded to the top four teams.<\/p>\n<p>Texas beat Georgia in a dual meet earlier this season, snapping a 103-meet home winning streak, and now the championship rematch has come down to the wire. Texas was actually projected in fourth coming into the day and held serve throughout much of the morning, putting four swimmers into championship finals and two in the consols, while Georgia went two up and three down.<\/p>\n<p>But things changed a bit in the final event of the session, as Georgia picked up the top seed in the women\u2019s 400 free relay, setting up the <strong>Olivia<\/strong> <strong>Smoliga<\/strong>\/<strong>Chantal Van<\/strong> <strong>Landeghem<\/strong>-led squad for a shot at ending the meet with a title, while Texas finished ninth, a quarter-second away from their shot at A-final points.<\/p>\n<p>Texas can\u2019t move up in the relay, but neither can Georgia, and the Bulldogs also have the ninth and tenth seeds in the 200 fly, another case of little potential for improvement. If all were to hold, Georgia would beat Texas, 258 to 245\u2014but, surely, something will change.<\/p>\n<p>Check out how all teams performed in the morning relative to their psych sheet seedings , courtesy of <strong>Price Fishback.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<table id=\"tablepress-166\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-166\">\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"row-1\">\n\t<th class=\"column-1\">Team<\/th><th class=\"column-2\">Current Score<\/th><th class=\"column-3\">Day 4 Psych Sheet<\/th><th class=\"column-4\">Day 4 Prelims Seeds<\/th><th class=\"column-5\">+\/-<\/th><th class=\"column-6\">New Projected Score<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody class=\"row-striping row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-2\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(1) Stanford<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">374.5<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">164<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">139<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">-25<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">513.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-3\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(2) Cal<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">255<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">116<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">104<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">-12<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">359<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-4\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(3) Texas A&amp;M<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">209<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">64<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">+31<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">+31<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">304<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-5\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(4) Georgia<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">170<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">69<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">88<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">+13<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">258<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-6\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(5) Texas<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">168<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">71<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">77<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">+6<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">245<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-7\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(6) Louisville<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">141.5<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">56<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">51<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">-5<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">192.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-8\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(7) NC State<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">117<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">57<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">71<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">+14<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">188<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-9\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(8) USC<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">117<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">100<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">64<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">-36<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">181<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-10\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(9) Michigan<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">111<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">54<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">66<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">+12<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">177<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-11\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(10) Minn.<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">134<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">33<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">41<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">+8<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">175<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-12\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(11) Indiana<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">125<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">45<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">32<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">-13<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">157<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-13\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(12) Virginia<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">88<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">59<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">62<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">+3<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">150<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-14\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(13) Missouri<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">116<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">5<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">12<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">-7<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">128<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-15\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(14) Kentucky<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">61<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">22<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">48<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">+26<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">109<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-16\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">(15) Wisc.<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">59<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">47<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">44<\/td><td class=\"column-5\">-3<\/td><td class=\"column-6\">103<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n<p>The Bulldogs and Longhorns should finish some 50 points ahead of sixth place, where there\u2019s a tight bunch between Louisville, NC State, USC, Michigan and Minnesota.
