[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We do intraclub B-meets more often than not.  They are more competitive than all but a few of the A-meets.

[b]Keep in mind that most of the "fast" summer league swimmers are less than B swimmers in the club circuits. [/b]

It is annoying.  Oh, but they just want to have fun, until they get beat at a B-meet, then they just fudge the times so the club swimmers can be in the A-meets, because the club swimmer coaches and parents run the league.

IMO PVS should make their meets at the same time as MCSL/NVSL so that swimmers have to choose.[/quote]

Ummmm…the top of NVSL is all AA-AAAA swimmers. My child is AA, and the highest she has been ranked is 3rd this year. On her same age relay alone, there is one AAAA, one AAA, my daughter (AA, cusp of AAA in one event), and the lone non-club swimmer whose times are BB. Just click on “Leaders” in mynvsl and select any age group/gender/event 9-18, and then look at the same swimmer in MySwimIO. Shoot, our team’s best 8 year old is a AAA swimmer in some events.[/quote]

That's why the RMSC club swimmers strutting around summer league are so annoying.  You can go look them up few of the RMSC swimmers are even A.  The reason the Rays are so strong is that those swimmers don't get invited to better competitions.
