  • oh, the semantics... a "USMS National Record" may be set by any eligible member of U.S. Masters Swimming in good standing regardless of citizenship. We don't have anything called "American" records. If we did, and the key word here is "American," then I think the citizenship debate should be opened. Regardless, there are how many records set every year? (very few) By how many swimmers? (even fewer) And of those, how many might not be U.S. Citizens? (rare) Not sure this is worth too much discussion.
