Industry News: United States Masters Swimming and College Swimming Coaches Announce New Program
I like the concept and have always felt that there was an opportunity to coordinate more with colleges when they are in the vicinity of masters teams...will be interesting to see how it works out. I still however believe that just as big of an opportunity exists to partner with High School swimming. My impression is that high school grads who don't go on to swim in college generally have no idea that masters swimming exists.

I always knew about Masters Swimming. My one coach at Suburban, Bill Crawford, was heavily involved with Masters swimming. Plus, one Masters swimmer decided to train with us kiddies in the late '80s and early '90s. She kept up really well. She would make finals at the USS meets that she went to. Plus, she was really nice compared to all those mean girls that I had to train with.
The Villanova team is well aware of Masters swimming.
