If she's a fierce competitor she should do fine, even then,again its a high honor to represent at state. We are cheering her on so keep us posted on her success.
My son was on his high school bowling team and he went to state. Didn't win any of the trophies but he was high bowler on the team and made the all city (Kc metro area 2nd ) team. He hasn't touched his bowling balls since the final team party at the local alley. Paul

Thanks. She was out of the medals for the fly, but got medals in the 200 m and 100 m freestyle events, and low enough times that next weekend she will go the Zone championships (~6 states) for 13/14 yr olds (though she will just turn 13 next week).

Nice form she has and it looks like she's beating at least one person! It's quite an honor to represent your school and compete at the state level. How did she place? Paul
