Members of the USA Swimming National Team will square off against collegiate swimming stars from the Pac-12 Conference in the second edition of the USA College Challenge.<\/p>\n

The short-course yards dual meet is slated for\u00a0Oct. 21-22<\/span>\u00a0at the Uytengsu Aquatics Center on the campus of the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. The Saturday, Oct. 21 session will begin at\u00a06 p.m.<\/span>\u00a0Pacific, followed by the\u00a0Sunday, Oct. 22<\/span>\u00a0session at\u00a011 a.m.<\/span><\/p>\n

Single-day and all-session tickets are on sale now at\u00a0usaswimming.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe received tremendous feedback from the athletes who participated in last year\u2019s USA College Challenge, and we\u2019re looking forward to an even bigger and better event next month,\u201d said USA Swimming National Team Director\u00a0Frank Busch<\/strong>. \u201cCollegiate swimming is key for the continued success of USA Swimming on the international level, and this event will again showcase the best college and National Team athletes our sport has to offer.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Pac-12 is excited to embrace the opportunity to partner with USA Swimming on initiatives that elevate the profile of the sport nationally and highlight the close relationship that college athletics has to Olympic success,\u201d said\u00a0Gloria Nevarez<\/strong>, Pac-12 Senior Associate Commissioner\/Senior Woman Administrator.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe collegiate swimming experience was key to my success with the National Team, and the USA College Challenge is a fantastic competitive platform for athletes at all levels,\u201d said\u00a0Lindsay Mintenko<\/strong>, former USC All-American, two-time Olympian and USA Swimming\u2019s Managing Director, National Team. \u201cThe team format will make for an exciting early season meet for athletes and spectators.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pac-12 Networks will provide exclusive broadcast coverage of the event. Specific channel and broadcaster information for the\u00a0Saturday, Oct. 21<\/span>\u00a0session will be announced at a later date, while the\u00a0Sunday, Oct. 22<\/span>\u00a0session will air live nationally on Pac-12 Network as well as on Pac-12 Arizona and Pac-12 Los Angeles. Both sessions will also be available to stream live for authenticated Pac-12 Networks subscribers via the Pac-12 Now app and\u00a0Pac-12.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In a similar format to the successful Duel in the Pool events, a running score will be kept throughout the dual meet competition combining the points earned by both women and men. With 269 points available in 31 total events, the first team to 134.5 points will be the winner.<\/p>\n

In last year\u2019s USA College Challenge, the USA Swimming National Team defeated the Big Ten Conference All-Stars in Indianapolis.<\/p>\n

For individual events, each team will be permitted to enter up to four athletes. The top three athletes in each individual event will be permitted to score points for their team \u2013 5 points for first place, 3 points for second and 1 point for third. Relay scoring is 7 points for a first-place finish and 0 points for second.<\/p>\n

Each athlete may be entered in up to six events during the meet, including individual events and relays.<\/p>\n

Current student-athletes at Pac-12 institutions who are members of the USA Swimming National Team will represent the Pac-12 Conference at the meet. Pac-12 alumni will represent the National Team. Rosters for the USA College Challenge will be announced in the near future.<\/p>\n

The Pac-12 Conference produced a number of individual gold medalists for Team USA at the 2016 Olympic Games, including\u00a0Maya DiRado<\/strong>,\u00a0Katie Ledecky\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Simone Manuel\u00a0<\/strong>of Stanford; and\u00a0Nathan Adrian<\/strong>,\u00a0Anthony Ervin<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Ryan Murphy\u00a0<\/strong>of Cal. In total, 17 members of the U.S. roster were products of Pac-12 programs.<\/p>\n

Stanford swept the men\u2019s and women\u2019s 2017 Pac-12 Conference Championships. At the NCAA Championships, Stanford won the women\u2019s national tile, while Cal was runner-up on the men\u2019s side.<\/p>\n
