INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Two teams of top swimmers from the U.S. and Europe will compete in the Duel in the Pool on Dec. 11-12.

The short-course meet will be held at Indiana University Natatorium in Indianapolis, the site of the first event in 2003 and four-time host of the U.S. Olympic swimming trials.

The U.S. is 6-0 in the event that has been held every other year since it began. The Americans beat Europe 132-131 in Glasgow, Scotland, in 2013.

Rosters will be announced in early October. Prize money of over $120,000 will be awarded.
