Three Indianola girls swimming events qualified to the 2022 State Swim Meet after their state qualifying performances Saturday. Five athletes qualified in three relay events, as the team of Julian Bacon, Olivia Raemaeker, Kodi Cram, and Olivia Bacon qualified in both the 200 and 400 Freestyle Relays with times of 1:45.18 and 3:55.29 respectively, while the team of Kodi Cram, Olivia Ramaeker, Faith Mahlstadt, and Julian Bacon qualified in the 200 Medley Relay with a time of 2:00.23. Olivia Ramaeker tells KNIA Sports this will be their last meet as a group of seniors, so they want to make it count.

“I just want us to have a good time and enjoy ourselves. For some of us, it’s our last meet ever. So if we can swim a fast time, maybe move up a few spots in the rankings, i’ll be content.”

The Iowa High School State Swimming and Diving Meet is held November 11-12 at the Marshalltown YMCA.
