GREELEY, Colo. -- Northern Colorado swimming is set to compete at the 2024 Trailblazer Invite, held from November 21-23 at the Human Performance Center, hosted by Utah Tech University.
The three day invitational will feature teams from Utah Tech, UC Davis, Fresno State, Pepperdine, San Diego, California Baptist, UC Santa Barbara, UC San Diego, CSU Bakersfield, and Pacific.
The invite will use a standard invitational scoring format. All individual events will follow a prelims/finals format, while timed finals will be used for all relays and the 1650 Freestyle.
All heats of the 1650 Freestyle will swim during the morning prelims, except for the top heat, which will compete in finals on Saturday evening.
Swimmers may participate in unlimited exhibition events but can score in up to four individual events and three relays. For relays, teams may enter as many as they wish, but only the top two relays per team (A & B relays) will score points.
The scoring breakdown for individual events and relays is as follows:
