Why is that Swimmer magazine never mentions 1988 Olympian Kirk Stackle in its coverage of Nationals? His name was again conspicuously absent from the list of Olympians who competed in Mesa. He won both the 100 *** and the 100 IM, by the way. Congratulations, Kirk.

Just a thought, but maybe some of them might prefer to fly under the radar?
Granted most of the ones mentioned have been competing on a regular basis, but it's got to be a very humbling experience for an Olympian to face the competition amongst their particular age group.
Years ago Swimmer did a story on Brian Goodell. He had a great mindset in not being too concerned about swimming all that fast. For him the second time around was more about fun.
