The Ohio High School Athletic Association’s (OHSAA) Board of Directors convened at their regularly scheduled January meeting, with a decision regarding the swimming and diving state tournament coming out of the conversation.
The board decided that the state championships will remain at C.T. Branin Natatorium in Canton, Ohio, with the competition taking place February 24th-27th.
However, there will be no prelims in the competition. Only timed finals will be conducted, with each high school division competing over one day to minimize the number of people on deck. (Canton Rep)

Yeah. I was a little confused at first when I didn’t see my school, or even St. X or Hawken
I was confused when I saw the paragraph was that small, and even more confused when St. X wasn’t there
