Anybody making US Olympic Trials is a great swimmer. There is no question about that. But I have a major problem with somebody complaining about not getting a record for his age group when there are probably 100 people in the same age group that have done a faster time in the past.
When I look at the World Records for Masters, I look at Richard Abrahams records and know that he is the fastest 60 year old in the world. Nobody can say that about Kevin. So even, if Kevin swims breaks the record this season at a Masters meet, I know (and he knows) that the current World record holder in 100 Back is in the same age group.
