20 Women, 26 Men, Make Up the 2024 US Olympic Pool Swimming Roster

 2024 U.S. OLYMPIC TRIALS

With only two finals events tonight, we weren’t expecting to see a huge shakeup in the rosters, and sure enough, only one of the four potential spots went to someone not already on the team.

That lone new qualifier was David Johnston, who secured his first Olympic berth with a 2nd-place finish in the 1500 free. 1st place went to Bobby Finke, who will add that event to the 800 free. Finke’s double ensured that Blake Pieroni, who finished 6th in the 200 free, will make the roster. The US men will take 26 men, the maximum number allowed, to Paris.

Rio 50 free silver medalist Simone Manuel won the 50 free tonight, after having already qualified as part of the 4×100 free team. Gretchen Walsh finished 2nd, meaning she’ll add the 50 free to the 100 fly and the 4×100 free relay.

With a ton of doubles, the US women were able to fill all the selection priorities with only 20 women on the Paris roster.

Now that the week is done, here’s what the USA Paris Olympics pool roster should look like, pending any last minute changes.

*Ledecky qualified in the individual 200 free, but has already stated that she’s not planning on swimming the event in Paris. Per USA Swimming selection criteria, that won’t change the composition of the roster, but Paige Madden should be afforded the opportunity to swim the individual event, as the next-highest finishing swimmer.

**Events in bold were added today.

***The events in parentheses refer to the events in which each athlete officially qualified for the team. You can expect that the individual swimmers in the 100 and 200 freestyles will also swim the 4×100 free and 4×200 free relays, and the swimmers who qualified in each 100 event will also swim the medley relays.

Thanks to Mark Wild for initially putting these spreadsheets together.

We’ve been providing updates on the Junior Pan Pacific roster, and we’ll do a separate post on that. The official roster isn’t scheduled to be released until July 15th.
