OTTAWA- The Ada High School swim teams finished a solid third at a six-team meet in the Putnam County YMCA at Ottawa Thursday, January 23.

Bulldog senior Lily Baumgartner broke the school record in winning the 200 freestyle. The mark of 2:01.34 was previously held by Klava Katayama. Lily swam 2:00.81 to break the record by .53.

Baumgartner also won the girls 100 breaststroke race by an easy margin of 7.14 seconds.

Margaretta swept to first place in all three team categories. They won the combined team title, and captured first in both the boys and girls standings.

The balanced victors scored 211 combined points, including 106 boys and 105 girls points.

“Everyone did really well and is staying consistent with their times,” said Ada head coach Ashley Robey.
