On Saturday at the district meet, the 400 yard freestyle relay of Maylei Ruggles, Natalie Boll, Emma Curry, and Hannah Nedder will come in as the 28th seed after a qualifying time of 3:52.81.

Nedder had already qualified in the 100 yard butterfly and is the 13th overall seed in the state, with a 59.07 mark. Nedder has now qualified for the state swimming meet for three consecutive seasons, and Ruggles has now done so two times in a row.
