Swimming World's top 12 master swimmers!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Former Member
Let the debate begin. I have no problem with the 12 selected, but, 6 and 6 is pretty tough to pick and I have great respect for the process they use. I do think they should try to maybe add the top swim of the year,but, what they have to do, at present, is pretty overwhelming. Some of the runner-ups are pretty awesome. Pull up the Swimming World and download the magazine.What a great honor for all these great swimmers EOM
I agreed with Paul last year about Susan, and I agree this year. I recall someone mentioning that she would have had a few other number one rankings (maybe in SCM?) if she had simply done some split requests.
Why do Dara's times count as #1 FINA/USMS rankings? Was the Olympic Trials a dual sanctioned meet?
I must say, I agree with ehoch that someone who is not a master and does not swim in masters meets, shouldn't really be getting FINA or masters rankings just because they are registered with USMS. This is just stockpiling of rankings to put on the resume.
