There are plenty of very good backstrokers (and other swimmers) out there who compete rarely. A good example is (former NCAA champion and Canadian Olympian) Sean Murphy; last time I can recall him competing was at Worlds in Stanford. He's moved to NC and someone told me he is training, he is just laying low (maybe until Greensboro? Hopefully so). Richie Hughey is another example, I remember him from college days, he sure looked good last year in Atlanta.
Here is a link to the roster of the Auburn Masters swimmers competing at nationals.
