[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] A lot of the best swimmers do not swim HS because they are more likely to be recruited through Club and not HS.[/quote] How do they gain the varsity experience colleges want, then? I have a teen who wants to go to the Air Force Academy. Shouldn't he focus on high school?[/quote] Probably covered already, but in this specific case, absolutely, being on a Varsity team is important. Times are not important for the admissions application... They ARE, of course, if the child is hoping to swim on the college team and is a legitimate recruit in that regard. The AFA coach would know to look for times in club meets and won't really care if you swam for the HS, many HS's don't have teams after all. 2 totally separate things basically.[/quote]
