COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado, September 3. ALONG with naming its senior national roster, USA Swimming also released the names of those swimmers who made the Junior National squad. This swimmers represent the future, and in some cases present, of the sport in the U.S.

The Junior National Team is comprised of the top six swimmers in Olympic events from the combined results of all USA Swimming or FINA sanctioned events from Jan. 1 until Sep. 2, 2013. Times from prelims, semifinals and finals are included, while relay leadoffs, time trials, swimoffs and splits do not count.
