George Washington enters the meet as the clear favorite in both the boys and girls competition.

Individually, South Charleston's Austin Green has been making a habit of breaking records during his senior season. Green broke two meet records (100-yard butterfly and 100 breaststroke) at last week's HYCAT meet in addition to swimming the opening leg for the Black Eagles' 400 freestyle and 200 freestyle relay teams.
Capital, Charleston Catholic, St. Albans, Nitro, Cabell Midland and University will also compete in today's meet, scheduled to start at noon.
