The USA Olympic swimming team will be finalized when the trials head to Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis this month.

This event marks the first time a football field has been turned into a complex with swimming pools. Hundreds of thousands of fans are expected to watch their favorite swimmers over the nine days of competition.

Seven-time gold medalist Katie Ledecky is set to race in multiple events, including the 200m, 400m, 800m and 1500m freestyle, and will be looking to tie or break the all-time record for most gold medals and total medals for a female swimmer in Olympic history. Two-time Olympian Gabrielle Rose will be the oldest swimmer at the trials at 46 years old and will swim in the 100m and 200m breaststrokes.

On the men's side, Caeleb Dressel is set to compete in the 100m and 200m freestyles and the 100m butterfly. Four-time gold medalist Ryan Murphy will look to reach his third Olympics in the backstroke.

All of these swimmers are set to give it their all. Which athletes will make the cut?
