Day 3 stats/notes:

• Biggest pattern of note through three days: our contestants were expecting this meet (well, the top three times, anyway) to be faster:
  • Today, at least 60% of entrants had faster predictions than the final times in 12 of 13 spots
  • At least 80% of entrants had faster predictions than the final times in 9 of 13 spots
• Special shout-out to the 20 (!) contestants who were “right on” in at least one event tonight.
• Double-special shout-out to the SignmeupTodd for perfectly calling a pair of top three times tonight (3rd place men’s 200 free and 2nd place women’s 100 back)
