  • Don't we already have USMS-registered swimmers swimming at age-group type meets, and getting their times recognized by USMS? I really don't see how this is different. Anyone who is a USMS-registered swimmer, and who goes about the process to get the swim recognized (pool measured, officiating, etc), why shouldn't the swim count towards USMS records?
