I don't know what is going on in the swimming world today. But, back in my day, college swimming events (NCAA) were held in pools that measured 25 yards long. I think that is because not all Colleges, and certainly not all High Schools, could afford to build Olympic size pools (50 meters long or "long course"). Most colleges (and high schools) had 25-yard pools, also known as "short course".Originally posted by Jaybird
:think ..
Now when the heck did they go to yards instead of meters?
It's really non of my business. But, when get to college and do a written report, you are going to have to be just a tiny bit more careful to quote your sources. The internet is available to teachers too.:) Maybe it's not such a big deal in high school, but college professors like to see students fail.;) I won't use the "P" word here because I'm really just trying to help you.:)Originally posted by marcv125
