It certainly was a great meet in Cleveland! And thanks to all concerned. In the ten years or so that have passed since I swam in the same pool at a National YMCA meet, the men's locker has progressed from the world's worst to the world's best!!
I was pleasantly surprised to find that all of the events were swum in heats governed by age group, rather than exclusively by seed times. (That is, all events of 200 meters or less). Actually, I have spent hours both before and after the meet trying to ascertain if it was written that it was going to happen that way, but haven't been able to find anything other than the deck seeding announcement and warning.
Please, if anyone can find the place where it is so written, point it out to me and anyone else who might be interested.
