Welcome to Week 13 - East Dual

Hello everyone, 

Welcome to week 13! 

Sorry for the delay in getting this email out! The catch up after Spartan is always a process! 

Week 12 Recap:

We had two meets last week - a dual with Verona and of course, Spartan Invite! Let me start by saying how appreciative I am of every parent, family member, and friend who helped out. I really hope my sincere appreciation and gratitude is felt by everyone who helped out because we had such a successful weekend because of your help. Whether it was flashing scores, watching the lines, timing routines, or just donating to the hospitality room, please know I saw your efforts and I appreciate you.

Some highlights from last week:

• Becca competed beam for the first time and earned a No Fall star and sticky feet.

• Kylie got her PR on beam with a 5.95 and earned a No Fall star and sticky feet.

• Emma earned a PR on beam with a 6.75 and earned a No Fall star and sticky feet.

• Sofia D got her PR on bars with an 8.5 and floor with an 8.575 and debuted her back handspring on beam! 

• Finja competed a FULLY CONNECTED bars routine and earned a PR of 6.85.

• Niylah competed her flyaway on bars for the first time, got sticky feet, and PRed with a 4.6.

• Sofia G stuck both of her vaults and earned a No Fall Star on beam!

• Natalie earned a No Fall star and sticky feet and PRed on bars with a 6.55.

• Kennedy competed her 1/4-3/4 vault for the first time and earned an 8.0.

• Genevieve earned a No Fall star on beam and stuck her 2nd vault and was told by the judge it was "at that point in the meet, it was the prettiest 1/4-3/4 she had seen so far".

In total, our athletes earned 8 No Fall Stars on beam and 19 Sticky Feets for stuck landings!
