# 2022 USA Swimming International Team Trials

The 2022 Phillips 66 International Team Trials was held from April 26 to 30, 2022 in Greensboro, North Carolina at the Greensboro Aquatic Center. Contested swimming events were conducted in a 50-meter (long course) pool. The competition served as the selection meet for determining the swim team to represent the United States at the 2022 World Aquatics Championships, 2022 Junior Pan Pacific Swimming Championships, and 2022 Mel Zajac Junior International. It was held separate from the 2022 US National Championships.

## Host selection

In August 2021, Greensboro Aquatic Center in Greensboro, North Carolina was announced as host of the International Team Trials in part due to scheduling conflicts in Indianapolis, Indiana with the 2022 FDIC International, which had already been scheduled and resulted in hotels being booked during the date range of interest.

## Overall results

All events were swum in a heats, finals format except for the 800 meter and 1500 meter freestyle events which were broken into slowest heats and a timed final where competitors swam the event once. Event finals were broken into a, b, and c finals with a and b finals open to anyone and the c final reserved for junior swimmers.
Key:  Highlighted swimmers fulfilled the qualification criteria and were named to the team roster for the 2022 World Aquatics Championships in the event.  Highlighted swimmers achieved a top-two finish and the FINA "A" cut standard for the 2022 World Aquatics Championships in the event and were not named to the team roster.
