USMS National Short Course Championships
IUPUI Indianapolis, May 9-12
the USMS entry and Information are now posted....

xxxxx
This year is the first time in four years that a Masters National Championship has been close to the state of Michigan. Indianapolis will host these championships at the world class IUPUI, which had hosted NCAA Championships, USA Nationals, Olympic Trials and the Pan American Games. Masters events have included YMCA Nationals, USMS Nationals, and FINA Masters World Championships. In 2009, the 45 Michigan Masters who swam in the meet earned a first place USMS Regional Club Championship title, which was the first time in Michigan Masters history that a combined Michigan team won a USMS National Championship outside the state of Michigan.

Michigan Masters have enjoyed winning team awards at past USMS Short Course National Championships at IUPUI in 1998, 2000, and 2004. In 1998, with 87 swimmers, the club earned a 3rd place finish. In both 2000 and 2004 Short Course Nationals, our club earned 4th place finishes with 54 swimmers in 2000 and 57 swimmers in 2004. With Michigan Masters' success in the past three years at USMS Nationals there good reason to believe that we can be one of the top teams in the country at the 2013 Short Course Nationals, and possibly even win the 2013 USMS Regional Club Championship title.

 Every swimmer that enters the 2013 Short Course National meet will get a free team t-shirt with the State logo on a red background that was used for the Michigan Masters team swimming caps that did not receive one at past National Championships. Also, if anyone wants to swim a relay, we will have e-mail sign ups effective now until the meet deadline. Information about the Short COurse Nationals is available on the Meet Schedule and linked to the 2013 Nationals web page. Remember, when swimming out of State or at USMS National Championships, everyone swims as Michigan Masters. With a great turnout, Michigan Masters swimmers can have fun and be a team force.
