CHARLOTTE, North Carolina, January 13. AFTER a bit of a tease occurred this morning when USA Swimming released confirmed Ryan Lochte entries for the Arena Grand Prix in Austin, SwimMAC head coach David Marsh has now confirmed to Swimming World<\/i> when the superstar will actually be back in the competitive waters.<\/p>\n

After first confirming that Lochte would not be in attendance in Austin this weekend<\/a>, Marsh told Swimming World<\/i> that he would, in fact, be competing at the Orlando stop of the Arena Grand Prix next month (Feb. 13-15).<\/p>\n

It will be great to see Lochte back in the water after a fan incident led to a knee injury<\/a> that forced him to withdraw from the Duel in the Pool last month in Scotland. Team USA still managed to pull out a stunning come-from-behind victory by way of a tiebreaker<\/a>, but the Stars and Stripes definitely missed the multiple Olympic gold medalist.<\/p>\n
