Ryan Lochte will be the most decorated swimmer on deck as the first Grand Prix meet of the year gets underway on Friday in Long Beach, Calif. The two-time Olympian and world record-holder will be joined by fellow 2008 teammates Matt Grevers, Chloe Sutton and Lacey Nymeyer.

You can watch the meet LIVE on SwimNetwork.com starting Friday. Additonally, race footage, interviews with Gold Medal Mel and photos will be available on-demand.

Look for tough competition in California as Mary DeScenza looks to hold onto the top spot on the Grand Prix Series leaderboard-- a spot that's good for a $20,000 purse from USA Swimming come Series' end.

The meet is slated for the Belmont Plaza Olympic Pool.

Why is Adam Ritter entered on the psyche sheets as "Miracle Man Ritter?" Did he really change his name to this or is it a stunt/gag?
