The recent post on David Hasselhoff got me thinking about one hit wonders in Swimming. Tracy Wickam for 1978's world records in 400 & 800 Free ......4:06 & 8:24 I think....and didn't it take Janet Evans to break these records ?????? Someone may remember this.... Any other one hit wonders ??? (or brief stays at the top?)

  • The percentage of girls to boys in age group swimming is at least 2 to 1. Boys do have more opportunity and swimming is not considered a "boys" sport like basketball, football. I heard somewhere that most college teams have a high percentage of Freshman and Sophmores, by the time they are in 3rd year and up they concentrate more on studies and getting on with their adult life.
