INDIANAPOLIS, March 28. THE 2002 NCAA Division I Women's Swimming and 
Diving Championships -- the fastest NCAA women's meet in history -- 
will be broadcast on  ESPN on Monday, April 8, at 2:00pm DST.

THE BERRYESSA SWIM THIS YEAR IN ON A TRIAL BASIS

The Bureau of Reclamation has insisted that Davis Aquatic Masters cut 
down the vehicular impact.  They are asking all participants to 
carpool as much as possible. When you think of going to the Open 
Water Swim at Berryessa, make plans to bring your swim teams mates.

Also cars have to be properly parked. There were many cars that were 
towed because they were not parked properly. To keep the Lake 
Berryessa swim we all have to pitch in to make it work.

PACIFIC MASTERS SHORT COURSE YARDS CHAMPIONSHIPS
The 2002 Pacific Masters Short Course Yards Championships will be 
held in Santa Cruz, April 12-14, 2002. You must pre-enter the meet. 
The meet post mark deadline is March 30, 2002, to be received no 
later than April 3rd. As many swimmers are competing in New Zealand 
at the FINA World Championships, some swimmers might be able to 
"sneak" a medal.
	http://www.pacificmasters.org/comp/02cruzscy.html
Joel Wilson wants swimmers to note:
1.  that women's events are odd numbered and men's events are even 
numbered (I think the on line meet sheet does say this).
2.  that all relays are deck seeded. Relays are entered the day of 
the meet at Pacific Masters Championships.

FROM THE DESK OF COACH MIDNIGHT

No, not everyone can make the Olympics -- but that should not stop 
you from trying to be your best!!

My last missive seemed to strike a chord with at least one swimmer. 
For bringing grief and anguish to that swimmer I apologize. It is not 
my intent to intentionally do so.

One should be open to and explore all  reasons for going fast and 
well as why some go "Not so fast." I only want to present that which 
I have either observed over the years, or what sports science 
research indicates is going on regarding training methodology.

Will my writings always be 100% correct?  -- No, but they  will be 
'in the ballpark'.  Will it cause me to 'sugar coat' my writing? -- 
No, that's not my style, as I believe in telling the truth as I know 
it . And to do otherwise would be a greater disservice.

So what's the bottom line on swimming -- First and most important is 
trying to be the very best with what you were given. Only Mark Spitz 
has the perfect butterfly kick, the rest of us will work to get it 
right.

Second is to just plain enjoy the pleasure of moving through the 
water (and with the least amount of 'resistance', of course). We know 
when we hit that spot, when we move quickly and almost effortlessly 
through the water. For some of us it is for one lap in a long work 
out, other swimmers have found that sweet spot and can swim long 
races in the zone. Many swimmers go to open water events where their 
prime motivation is not competing, but to just enjoy the swim.

And lastly, be sure you are training in the most scientifically sound 
and 'up to date' manner possible. This one, perhaps, will have the 
most profound impact your swimming improving.
