•Moderate Dedication: Working hard at mandatory practices and some optional practices.
•High Dedication: Working hard at all available practices and doing a little bit extra outside of the pool

GRACE WALLER swims with Kishawaukee YMCA in DeKalb, IL, please take time to read about this incredible girl.

Just days after the girls state swim meet in November, DeKalb sophomore Grace Waller was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer.

‘‘Everything happens for a reason,’’ the 16-year-old said. ‘‘The only way I could look at it was that it was another bump in the road to overcome. I try to stay positive because I know that this is not forever.’’

Waller finished 11th in the 200-yard individual medley and swam on two top-12 relays with her sister, Bowling Green-bound Emily, at the state meet. As a freshman, she was eighth in the breaststroke, her specialty, but didn’t qualify for the 2008 finals.
