It appears that Swimming World came out with the first Top 12 World Masters Swimmers.
Seems a little strange that there are only 2 people under the age of 50 on this list. Is there an age requirement here that we don't know about?
Where is the Evil Paul Smith's name on this list? He sets at least one National or World Record almost every year.
John Smith

Again, I am not diminishing Hedrick's accomplishments, just pointing out what I believe is, again, another flaw, in United States Masters Swimming! I do admit, there are so many, this one is minor since it appears to be totally subjective without any methodology.
How is this a flaw of USMS? The list was compiled by Swimming World, not anybody from USMS.
