CHANGE TO PAC MASTERS RULES
The Pacific Masters Swimming Committee approved the addition of the 
following policy to the Meet Operations Handbook:

All entries must include an entry time. No Time (NT) entries will be 
assigned an estimated time. If a swimmer enters an event with a time 
significantly slower than the swimmer's historical times without 
prior consultation with and getting the approval of the meet 
director, the meet director may change the entered time to a 
realistic time.
