Old national caliber swimmers that never come back
Former Member
Interesting and unfortunate that the vast majority of ex swimmers that made finals at NCAAs or Nationals when they were younger (or even just cuts) do not now participate in Masters Swimming. Only a small handful of these people come to Masters Nationals each year within each age group.
What a good opportunity USMS presents to see old faces and have a good time. I think USMS would benefit tremendously from their knowledge of the sport.

Hey Aquageek,
Need I remind you of this little backwater school in Bloomington, IN. They had a coach by the name of Councilman who was pretty well regarded in certain circles, and a dude, Spitz was it (?), that some say was half decent.
More recently I've heard some folks from Ann Arbor talk about one of their local heros, Dolan if I recall correctly. Supposedly he wasn't half bad on a good day.
Please enlighten me, whose men's 4x200 relay just broke the U.S. Open record at Senior Nationals?
