Lol..that is true. But I can't say for sure if thats the reason why.

white people dominate swimming

That's only because black people have no buoyancy.

I guess you haven't heard of Cullen Jones.

I was being intentionally sarcastic .... There was a some-what racist theorist that published a paper a few years back, explaining that Black people had no buoyancy, and therefore could not become world-class swimmers ..... it caused quite a stir and was emphatically disproved.

The West Coast African has vastly superior physiology for sprinting. If you put one against a white guy with the same leg length the black guy's knee is higher up the leg so that the upper bone is shorter and the 2 lower bones longer. This gives better gearing and leverage. The ligaments in the hamstrings are better placed to apply power and the Achilles is also has vastly superior attachments for the application of force on the foot and the foot pad/plate puts more leverage on the deck. Add to that more dense bones and more dense muscle tissue with a higher percentage of fast twitch fibres and it is not hard to see why the West African lineage will wipe the floor with any other race when it comes to sprints. Black guys also have more mind in the body also,better coordination and a better sense of rhythm.
