The two-day competition took place at the Burt Flickinger Center Pool on the SUNY Erie Campus in Buffalo.
It's a big thrill for the young competitors, and for Anita as well. Anita is from the Town of Tonawanda and is a three-time Olympian.
She hopes to be back in the pool, swimming for Team USA in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.
