TEMPE, Arizona, May 20. NINETY-ONE US Masters Swimming national records — including 79 individual marks and 12 relay standards — fell in Tempe, Arizona, during the four-day USMS National Short Course Championships, which ended Sunday.
Nine swimmers had spectacular meets, notching three or more national records. Karlyn Pipes-Neilsen led the day with six national marks in the 40-44 division, including one lifetime best time and several swims that bettered her records in the 30-34 and 35-39 divisions. She won six individual events, five in record time, then added a sixth mark in the 50 back leading off the medley relay.
Margaret Meyer, who underwent back surgery last November, dominated the women's 80-84 freestyle, setting five USMS records at every distance from 50 through 1650 yards freestyle.
Bill Specht, recovering from shoulder surgery, also had five national marks in the men's 45-49 division. His 1:52.67 in the 200 fly shocked even him.
Three swimmers set four national marks apiece: Ed Cazalet (men 60-64), Bumpy Jones (men 70-74), Aldo DaRosa (men 85-89).
Three athletes notched three marks apiece: Greg Shaw(men 50-54), Danielle Ogier (women 45-49)and Lavelle Stoinoff (women 70-74).
