Ghosts, Goblins, Gremlins and Gouhls!

The Level 4 girls had a great Halloween Fun Meet on Saturday at Tri-Star. Complete with a costume parade, it was a fun day, and a great team building meet. Cassie, Summer, Jessica, Hanna, and Hope scored an impressive 2nd place team showing against many larger teams. Coach Tammy kept the girls relaxed between events, and the girls enjoyed cheering their teammates on with shouts of encouragement and high fives.

The Level 5 girls had their fun too. Many of the girls posted personal bests for the season thus far. For several of the Level 5s, the Beam was THE event of the meet. Emma, Kelly, Anne, Jackie and Jess F., posted their best scores of the meet up on Tristar's beams. For Emily and Jess P, the floor was the place to shine, posting their best scores on the big blue carpet. All in all, a fun day for the team.

The Level 6 girls had their share of 9s amid the Halloween fun. Amanda was hot, posting three 9s. MacKenzie and Madison posted two 9s. Morgan scored her best score of the meet on Floor. Jamie posted her best of the meet on Vault.
