Can you set an official world record in a USMS meet? Can you qualify for the olympic trials in a USMS meet?

  • I don't know if legislation was passed, but I believe that USA Swimming was working on some sort of setup whereby a meet could be joint-sanctioned by both USA Swimming and USMS, and you could have USA Swimming people and USMS people in the same meet. 3 years ago I swam in a meet that was sanctioned by both. The only thing done different than a USS meet was the addition of masters heats (18 and over) for each event. The down side to this meet was that they only offerred a 50 free. All the other strokes were 100's and 200's (no 100IM either).
