[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was an 8 year old on our team who dropped about 25 seconds in breast stroke over just two weeks, earning a first place in divisionals.[/quote]

Funny because all the 8&u division winners in our league were posting consistently fast times in the weeks leading up to Divisionals.[/quote]

If you really took the time to look that up then I can only assume you are in a different league. You also don’t have access to B times because they aren’t publicly available. There are also some kids in divisionals with NT for the stroke in question.[/quote]

Reachforthewall has the seed times for divisional meets across multiple leagues.  The events described above are easily verifiable or refuted.  If it really happened, it would be so unusual that it would probably make the Washington Post.[/quote]
You think it's that extraordinary that a kid dropped 6 seconds at Divisionals as an 8U that you can suss out the data?  It's not going to have B meet times for the bigger time drop.

Some people have way too much time on their hands.[/quote]

Those bigger time drops don't exist.  The data is all there to show the seed times regardless of where they came from.[/quote]
You tracked back times for each kid for their A meet and B meet times for the week before Divisionals for each league?  The PP didn't say their kid dropped 40 seconds at Divisionals, but dropped 40 seconds to make Divisionals.  That's not possible to track in any reasonable way.  Those cuts could have been across a few meets (B meet + A meet + B meet).  You're talking nonsense.[/quote]
