[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]New swim mom of a 9 year old boy here.  I was looking over the times for the PVS October Open and it made me curious about the USA Swimming time standards.  From just eyeballing it, the top boy in each event across all three sites usually has an AA time with just a few AAA times.  There are usually just a couple AA/AAA times in each event.  I'm not seeing any AAAA times over the three sites in any boys 9-10 event.  I thought AAAA meant top 2%, AAA top 6% and AA top 8%.  Most of the events have 150 to 200 swimmers over the three sites.  It seems like most events should have at least one AAAA time, and every event should have a handful of AAA times.  Are the best area swimmers not competing in these opens?  Or is this just because this is early in the season?  Or maybe I'm misunderstanding?[/quote]

The 9-10 boy who won the 100 BK at the Alexandria site had a AAAA time that appears to be the fastest in the country for his age group so far this season.  He also crushed the field, of pretty decent swimmers, in the 200 BK.[/quote]

Here's the kid who swam in the October Open this weekend, scroll to current season rankings and click on the number under USA: https://www.swimmingrank.com/mdva/strokes/strokes_pv/CFOILBHCO_100BK.html[/quote]

Here’s another one from that same Location and meet. 9th in the country for 11-12 year old 200 meter back.  I know she’s asking about 9-10 year olds, but there were definitely good swimmers at this meet.
