BURLINGTON —
Ottumwa’s swimmers were once again competitive in relay events Saturday at the Burlington Girls Grayhound Invitational.
The Bulldogs finished 11th out of 12 teams at the invite with 79.5 points.
“It was a really competitive day,” coach Stephanie Mishler said. “We had several opportunities to race other individuals.”
