16 swimmers have qualified to compete in the Great Lakes zone swim meet in Canton. The Barracudas will swim against 600 swimmers from around Ohio, plus Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, and West Virginia. The Lima swimmers range from eleven to eighteen years old and they have been working for the last six months to hit the qualifying times. This will be Cece Schaaf’s first time at the zones, where she will be competing in six events this weekend, including the 50 freestyle.

The Lima YMCA Barracudas are on their way to compete in the U.S.A. Junior Olympics at The Ohio State University again.
