Where can I find wingspans of U.S. or Olympic Swimmers

Post by Jack1999 »

Hi,

I am doing a science project where I am trying to correlate a swimmer's wingspan, height and speed. I can find times, heigh and weight of U.S. and Olympic swimmers but I cannot find any information on wingspan. I found it for Michael Phelps but I need it for more swimmers. Do you have any ideas where I can find this informaiton? It would be really helpful for my science project. Thank you.

Jack
