DEFIANCE - The Ada girls and boys swim teams competed in the Div. II swim sectionals at Defiance Ayersville Saturday, with two Bulldog juniors qualifying for the district meet next Friday.

"Sectionals was a very good meet for us, with almost everyone dropping time," said Ada head coach Stephanie Steiner.

Bulldog junior Klava Katayama won the 100 butterfly race and also captured the 50 freestyle to qualify for the Bowling Green district event in both events.

Katayama made it to the state meet at Canton the last two years in sprint freestyle events. This year, she heads into districts seeded first in the 100 fly.
