The following attached files reflect a preview list of Top 16 times prepared by USA Swimming. It is based on times loaded into the USA Swimming SWIMS database (as of July 24 2006) for the period September 1, 2005 -- August 31, 2006.
Please review the atttached lists of PV swimmers who based on current information have achieved a Top16 time. Please note any omisions as well as any times which you believe have been erroneously included.. Please inform both PVS Acting Top 16 Coordinator, John Hirschmann, of any revisions which you believe should be made to the list. When doing so, please make sure you include the athletes name, club, age at time of swim, event, distance, time achieved, meet name and location.
Please also note we can only make corrections for times from meets occuring within PVS's boundaries. Swims in other LSC's are the responsibility of that LSC's Top 16 Coordinator. However, if you know of swims that occurred in another LSC that should be reviewed or included, let us know and we will request that the appropriate LSC T-16 coordinator to review the matter.
Only times eligible for Top 16 consideration should be submitted. These are the times currently needed to make the preliminary Top 16 list
Swims occurring in observed meets (e. g., high school meets) are eligible for Top 16 recognition if the swimmer was a member of USA Swimming at the time of the swim. However, the swimmer will be shown as swimming UNAT since they were not representing their club team at the meet.
IMPORTANT: The USA Swimming lists reflects all swims loaded as of July 23 for both individual and relay events.. Please make sure the USA Swimming list is accurate as that list will be used by USA Swimming staff to finalize the Top 16 list.
The Top 16 lists for relays now includes as a single age category, 15-18 year old relay teams. Separate listings for 15-16 and 17-18 year old relays have been discontinued based on legislation approved at the 2004 USAS Convention..
Please complete your review by Thursday, August 3.
The initial Short Course list for review is also posted.
