COLORADO SPRINGS, CO- Baylor School / Baylor Swim Club athlete Sam Flack has been chosen by USA Swimming to attend the 2021 Zone Select Performance Workshop. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 USA Swimming Zone Select Camps have been canceled. In lieu of these absent programs, USA Swimming will be holding the Zone Select Performance Workshop to continue providing opportunities for athletes at this level. This workshop will be held virtually on Monday, June 28th from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM. Sam Flack was selected based on his long course meters performances during the 2019-2020 season.
Selection Criteria
Each zone’s camp will consist of 34 athletes from each competition category.
The fastest two available athletes in each Zone in each Long Course Meters (LCM) Olympic event is invited for a total of 28 male and 28 female athletes.*
*In 2021, we will expand the selection to include additional athletes. If an athlete who qualified in 2020 qualifies again in 2021, then we will invite down the list until we get to an athlete who did not attend the virtual 2020 camp.
Then, the top three IMX scoring athletes in the specified seasons in each age range are selected based on the specified IMX seasons:
LCM 2019/2020 (Female- Ages 11-12; Male- Ages 13-14)
LCM 2019/2020 (Female- Ages 13-14; Male- Ages 15-16)
IMX qualifiers will be selected by looking at both seasons combined in each age range.
If a swimmer was already selected based on an event selection, then the next swimmer with the highest score is selected.
