You would think that junior Edan Scott would spend the days leading to the state swim meet worrying about her upcoming performance, but it is quite the contrary.
Scott spent the morning surrounded by teammates as they celebrated her advance to the state meet at Evanston Township High School. Her mother, grandmother, and younger brother, freshman Eric Scott, were also at the sendoff to wish Scott luck before the meet.
Last Saturday, Scott took third and first in the 50 freestyle and 100 freestyle, respectively, which allowed her to move on to the state meet. Those are also the events that she will compete in on Saturday, Nov. 17.
“I hope to place within the top six in both of my events,” Scott said.
