I'm the husband of a new Masters swimmer. We've been involved in US Swimming for awhile and are familiar wth the time standards used by our childrens' club (B A AA, etc), but I can't seem to find the equivalent for Masters swimming. Maybe this is a "stupid" question, but I'm sure I can get a quick answer here. Thanks!

There's nothing in Masters that corresponds to the B, A, AA etc. classifications in age group swimming. Other than the limited exception of Nationals (where qualifying times must be met to swim more than three events), any swimmer can swim in any meet. All swimmers are seeded in heats, usually slow to fast, based on their submitted entry times.
