[quote=Anonymous]Part of the issue is that boys reach their peak performance in swimming at a later age than girls. It is hard for boys to be recruited as seniors, much less as juniors. Girls, on the other hand, often reach their top speeds by 16 if not earlier (not that they can’t continue to get faster with intensive training - just that they have reached their peak physical strength/size). Many of the top girls are committed to top D1 programs early in their junior year (with scholarships). Male swimmers often continue to grow/gain strength well into their early twenties. [/quote]
