Level 9 team takes 2nd at L9 State Meet



OTW's Level 9 team had their States this past Sunday. Since it takes three to count for a team score, every score that Brianna, Kenna and Becca posted went towards the team standings. (no pressure) All three put in a solid effort. Their combined team score of 105.675 was good enough to take the second place team trophy. Atlantic took first, with six girls on their team. All the other teams had just three girls apiece.

Becca continued her strong showings. She scored 9.0s on both the vault and uneven bars. Her beam routine took 2nd place, with a 9.10. Her All-Around of 36.075 took fourth place. Brianna came back strong after taking a break (from Aquafina). Bri's routine on the uneven bars was outstanding, scoring a 9.45 and taking 1st place. Her floor routine scored a 9.00 and tied for third. Kenna scored her personal best scores of the season on both vault and floor. A good day to meet those goals!

Taken all together, the 9s' total scores put them ahead of three other gyms' teams. In the tough and demanding world of Level 9 gymnastics, that's something to be very proud of. Good job Bri, Kenna and Becca.

The next step is looking forward to Regionals, held in Syracuse on April 1st and 2nd. Go girls!
