By Cort Reynolds

CANTON__Ada High School junior Lily Baumgartner qualified for the finals at the Ohio state Div. II meet with good preliminary showings Thursday, February 22, in both the 100-yard backstroke and 100 freestyle races.

Baumgartner touched sixth in the girls 100 backstroke (55.96) preliminary heats to make it to the A finals Friday night.
