[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just looked through the All Stars roster and there are tons of kids at the bottom of their age bracket who made it. Lots of 15 yos swimming in the 15-18 division. 11 yos swimming in the 11-12 yo division, etc, etc. I think people are making far too big a deal about the importance of age on performance. [/quote] Maybe all those 11 yos are really 12?[/quote] In 11-12 boys IM 4 of the top 20 kids, i.e., the original All-Star qualifiers including the 2 alternates, are listed as 11 yos. Lo and behold, 3 of them are actually 11 yos. None of the 11 yos is seeded in the top 10, which suggests age definitely matters in IM. In 11-12 boys free, only 1 of the top 20 times from divisionals was by a kid listed as an 11 yo. And he's 12. Age definitely matters in freestyle.[/quote]
