I'm interested to know if its possible to locate results from decades back, beginning about 1990 and forward to the ones available here at usms.org now?
  • I believe I have the CMSA (Illinois) state meet results from that period. The problem is that they were never uploaded. It's a challenge to upload them now, as getting permanent ids for people who, in the intervening years, have changed their name or didn't swim any USMS meets after the permanent id system was put into place, is quite difficult. I uploaded (or at least tried) the 2006 state results. Wasn't easy. It certainly would be a daunting task to cross reference names before permanent IDs. It would be great to see those results. Would it be possible to create PDF and make them available on the ILMSA site? I don't really know how much effort that would take.

Skip, if you have any meet results in electronic format (CL2 or SD3 or SDIF) from that period, send them to me and I will get them uploaded. Anna Lea
  • That sure seems like a lot of work. A labor of love this would not be.
