Level 6s Take 2nd Place at American Flyers Cup



The Level 6 girls had a terrific day at the American Flyers Cup. Maine Academy of Gymnastics put on a great event with strobe lights, slideshow pictures and Gym O Grams. The girls really enjoyed the atmosphere. They worked hard to impress the judges in all their events. The scores weren't flying as high as they usually do, but that didn't stop their determination.

In the 10 and 11 year old division, Madison took 1st place on Beam, 6th place on Floor and Bars and placed 6th All Around. In the12 and up division, Jamie took 4th on Beam, 7th on Vault and 7th All Around. MacKenzie took 1st on Floor, 4th on Bars, 5th on Beam and 5th All Around. Amanda took 2nd on Vault, 3rd on Bars, 5th on Floor and placed 4th All Around. Hillary took 1st on Bars, 2nd on Beam, 3rd on Vault, 4th on Floor and placed 3rd in the All Around. Courtney took 1st on Beam, 6th on Vault, Bars and Floor, and placed 1st All Around. Shannon scored a 30.30 All Around and Olivia scored a 31.90 making her way closer to the qualifying score for states.

The handstand contest was loads of fun. MacKenzie and Courtney held strong against a tough competitor from Dragon Gymnastics. Courtney was the proud winner of a handstand bar to bring back to Off the Wall for all the girls to share.

As a team, the girls scored an impressive 108.275 earning them the 2nd place Team Trophy!
