BLUFFTON - If Alex Bader had been able to enter a few more events, the result may have been different.

Hudson took the 13-14-year-old girls long freestyle, individual medley and breststroke, and Cori Vormohr won the 15-and-older girls long freestyle, butterfly and breaststroke.

Eme Miller and Neal Fennig each added a pair of victories, and Ian James, Cori Stone, Sophie Bader, Haley Confer, Katy Smeltzer, Carli Ostrowski, Zane Shreve, Wiley Young and Joey Miller picked up one win apiece.
