New Prague swimmers Taylor Bassett and Aspen Schieffer will join diver Maddyn Anderson in the Minnesota Class AA Swimming & Diving meet Nov. 13-15 at the University of Minnesota.

 

Bassett won entry to the state meet Saturday, Nov. 7, with her performances in the 50- and 100-yard freestyle events.

 

Schieffer punched her ticket to state at the section meet with her effort in the 100-yard breaststroke.

 

The team's swimmers set new school records in the four events. Along with the two freestyle and breaststroke events, the Trojans'  200-yard freestyle relay team also broke a school record, although it did not make the cut to advance to state.
