When I swam in HS 27yrs ago, girls my age were swimming 100yd free in just under 59.0. Now I look at HS times and I'm blown away on how fast they are swimming and at younger ages.
What has changed?

I'm not sure that there is much difference from when I was in hs (14 yrs ago). The top times are just about the same, but there is way more depth. Instead of two girls per team going 53-54 in the 100 free there are 7-8 girls in that range. I just attribute it to the fact that there is more pool time at an earlier age.
