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.

My memory may be playing tricks on me, but even if it wasn't acknowledged in SWIMMER, I think the announcer definitely mentioned it during at least some of Stackle's races in Mesa. If anything, I think that is probably more important than post-meet mentions in SWIMMER.
Some of our teammates spoke to the announcer in Mesa; Kirk is proud of his status as an Olympian but would not have done it himself.
