The following attached files reflects an updated preview list of Top 16 times prepared by USA Swimming. It is based on times loaded into the USA Swimming SWIMS database (as of August 27, 2007 for SC and September 13, 2007 for LC) Times for the period September 1, 2006 -- August 31, 2007 are eligible for consideration..
Please review the attached lists of PV swimmers who based on current information have achieved a Top16 time. Please note any omissions as well as any times which you believe have been erroneously included. Please inform PVS Top 16 Coordinator Janet Auger, 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 occurring 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 review the matter.
Only times eligible for Top 16 consideration should be submitted.
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 swimmers will normally be shown as swimming UNAT since they were not representing their club team at the meet.
IMPORTANT: The USA Swimming lists are current as dates indicated above.. Please make sure the USA Swimming list is accurate -- that list will be used by USA Swimming staff to finalize the Top 16 list.
Different lists are again being provided this year.
The Top 16 lists for relays now include, as a single age category, 15-18 year old relay teams. Separate listings for 15-16 and 17-18 year old relays were discontinued starting in 2004-05 based on legislation approved at the USA-S Convention.
Please complete this review NLT Tuesday, September 18, 2007. We will not be able to review corrections the week of September 24th. Revisions will not normally be accepted after September 30.
