(151 individual and 21 relays). The 8-under girls’ team stole the show, placing 1^st in Wisconsin in total points.

Highlights included a spectacular performance in both the 100 medley relay (Cassie Rankin, Sylvia Townsend, Julia Michalski, and Katie Norton) placing 2^nd and State Champions in the 100 free relay.  Cassie Rankin had a spectacular meet, crowned the State Champion in the 25 free, 50 free, and 100 individual medley.
