Teen Swimmer Who Had Foot Amputated Makes School History | ABC 7 Chicago

When Naperville North Swimmer Reese Navarro tried out for the swim team, she didn’t know she would be making school history.

“I just love the feeling of being able to glide through the water,” she said.

The freshman is the first swimmer at the school to compete in the athletes with disabilities swimming events.

Now she’s headed to the state championship Saturday and taking part in several races, including the 200-meter freestyle and the 100-meter breaststroke.
