All great swimmers, but there's also Don Schollander... Goes back a ways, but first American swimmer to win 4 golds... then a 5th in Mexico City in 1968. First swimmer I noticed and followed.
Janet Evans not only b/c of her record, but just I admire her the way I've admired Joan Benoit Samuelson as a runner--strong woman athletic role model, class act!
