Gymnastics

Decatur, Illinois – Gem City’s gymnastics team rocked it on February 8 & 9 at the Heart of Illinois meet. The Level 3 team took first place!

There were many impressive individual performances. Ava Winking (level 3) took first with a 38.05 in her level and age group. Haley Woodyard (level 3) placed second with a 37.275 in her level and age group. Molly Broughton (level 3) also posted high scores with a 36.9.

The Level 6 team also found success with a third place finish. This was especially impressive considering only three Level 6 athletes competed, meaning every score on each event counted toward the total team score. This leaves little room for anything other than solid performances.

Our gymnasts has a wildly successful time at the Monster Mash meet in Springfield, IL this last weekend.

Gem City’s Level 3 and Level 6 teams earned first place standings. The Level 4 team had a great effort as well with their third place finish.

We are proud of our many level 6 & 7 athletes, who competed at the Super 6 & 7 State meet in St. Charles, Illinois. These athletes were: Hannah Brunier, Lexie Destefane, Olivia Kaufman, Charleigh Koch, Lauren Stupavsky, and Georgia Graham. We are happy to inform you that Olivia Kaufman earned 8th on uneven bars while Charleigh Koch earned 10th place on the floor exercise.
