Why not create and organize some new teams by college names under separate USMS affiliations to help create additional interest in Masters Swimming an potentially recruite former swimming alumni for relays?
I know several 40+ Texas alumns that could crush old SMU (pigmy horses) in a 200 medley.

I shall do my best to assemble a team of ex-California Golden Bears... I know of at least one (Roque Santos) who is still active, and I am determined to find others!
Anthony Ervin, though he'd probably put your relay in a younger age group. Maybe you can coax Matt Biondi out of retirement. He'd be a decent relay teammate!
My Michigan State teammates Steve Bargwell, Alec Mull and Ron Orris are all currently swimming masters. Alec and Ron swam at LC Nats and are swimming fast. It would be fun to organize a college relay, but any really fast relay would have me cheering from the side of the pool rather than in the water.
