Cedarburg swimmers and divers compete at WIAA Division 2 boys state finals"The way I like to describe it, nothing beats (the high school state meet)," Rudich said. "When you walk in there for the final heat, you can just feel chills sent down your entire body... The best swims come out when you swim for the people on the pool deck." Edwards has competed at state before and says his mental approach this year after listening to an interview with U.S. figure skating gold medalist Alysa Liu."[I'm] trying not to worry about placement because, if I do, I probably won't do as good," Edwards said. "I was listening to part of [Liu's] interview, and she was like, 'I'm not going there for a medal.' She's just going there and having fun. So... That attitude is what I'm going to take away." Division 1 swimming and diving take place Saturday, with diving at 9:30 a.m. and swimming finals starting at 2:30 p.m.This story was reported on-air by a journalist and has been converted to this platform with the assistance of AI.
