Allison Schmitt expected to compete for first time since Rio Olympics

Allison Schmitt, an eight-time Olympic medalist, is expected to race at next week’s USA Swimming Pro Series meet in Mesa, Ariz., which would be her first competition since the Rio Olympics.

USA Swimming announced the headliners Wednesday, including Schmitt and fellow individual Olympic champions Nathan Adrian, Ryan Murphy and Matt Grevers, plus Chase Kalisz, who swept the individual medleys at the 2017 World Championships.

It was possible that Katie Ledecky could make the Pro Series meet her professional debut, but she was not listed in USA Swimming’s press release.
