Gymnasts Take on Waterford

The Whitewater Gymnasts took on Waterford in their last dual meet of the season on Tuesday, February 8, 2022.

Halee Peters had a great night as she took 2nd in All-Around with a score of 30.825. She stomped it in Vault, taking 1st place, took 2nd in Bars with her difficult routine, and had a career best score of 8.275 with her sassy Floor routine, which also earned her 2nd place. Halee tied for 3rd place on Beam with Makayla Bazeley. Makayla also had a strong night and placed in the top 8 for all the events, taking 5th in All-Around and 5th on her solid Bars routine.

Myia Cobbs showed everyone how tough of a competitor she is as she took on Bars for the first time ever. She also scored a season best on the Vault with a 7.25, tied her season best score on Floor, and competed in All-Around for the very first time, and scored a 23.30! We love seeing how much she has grown as a gymnast since the first meet! She meets every challenge head on and is a determined gymnast!

 Miyu Takeda scored a season best on Vault as she continues to push herself to learn new skills.

The team heads to Platteville for their last invitational on Saturday, February 12th, and then will move on to Conference and Sectionals the following two Fridays. Wish them luck as they finish their season strong!
