North Texas Swimming Top-16

USA Swimming Top-16 webpage.

The Top 16 program is an awards program for the top level of age group swimmers. It is administered by a National Top 16 Coordinator with the assistance of the USA Swimming Staff. All times which are accepted as "official times" by USA Swimming, from sanctioned, approved or observed competition, are eligible for consideration. The swimmer must have been a registered member of USA Swimming at the time of the swim.

Time standards for the consideration times have been approximately the 25th place time from the previous year. These consideration times are called "National Reportable Times", or "NRT". With the quadrennial system currently being used, the standard will be prepared consulting the lists from all 4 previous years.

2005-2006 Top 16 Lists

The Top 16 lists are complete and official for the 2005-2006 swimming season. To make these lists, an athlete must achieve the NRT standard and be ranked in the top 16 times in that event. There are some instances this year in which events did not fill out to 16 because 16 swimmers did not achieve the NRT standard in that event.

2006-2007 Top Times

USA Swimming is updating the top times for the 2006-2007 SCY season each two weeks. LCM times will be updated beginning in January, 2007. USA Swimming 2006-2007 Top Times webpage
