A swimmer’s times will count for the entire season-so if a swimmer ages up during a season the IMX score on the My USA Swimming page will show a score for his/her lower age group and their new age group. In order to check the progress, swimmers can create a web account to be able to access their personal My USA Swimming page! If a swimmer has already swum the event combo for his/her age level, the IMX score and ranking now appears in a special section of the swimmer’s My USA Swimming page. All swimmers participating and legally completing each IMX event for their single age group for the 2014-2015 Short Course Season will receive an IMX cap! Top Three male and female swimmers in the Lake Erie district with the highest IMX score per single age group will receive the following at the conclusion of the SC season: 1st place – IMX hoodie 2nd place – IMX towel 3rd place – IMX t-shirt Please note: Awards are subject to change based on availability
