Old national caliber swimmers that never come back

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.

Maybe we need to remind all of our once-competitive friends that in Masters they can always come back and just race 50's. Not to mention the 100 IM. I know for me it was a lot easier to start competing knowing that these distances were an option.
