The Whitewater High School Gymnastics Team competed in a triangular on Tuesday, January 26, against Janesville Parker and Milton High Schools.
Our very own Halee Peters placed 2nd in All-Around, with a 31.75. She had a solid performance in all 4 rotations and maintained her place on the 8.0 club for 2 events. Halee had a career best on the Vault, scoring an 8.4, and contributing to the highest team score of the season for Vault. She also had a career best score on Floor with an 8.25 – captivating the crowd with her amazing performance. On Beam she landed her dismount – a gainer off the end of the beam – a new move she just learned the day prior! It’s always fun to watch her passion for this sport.
Izzy Dieter had a great night with two career best scores, a 7.7 on the Vault and a no fall routine on the Beam. Izzy competed in three out of four varsity events for this meet and contributed to the team scores – she is proving she is a true competitor and solidifies how hard she is working in the gym to rise up to the challenge.
Nola Coburn flew through the air, scoring a season best on the Vault, while Makayla Bazeley hit a season best on her amazing Bars routine. Both freshmen were All-Around competitors and did their part in contributing to team scores across the board.
Estephany Reyes-Saldana and Myia Cobbs showed their skills on the Beam – both earning season best scores, with Estephany having a no fall beam routine. Lexi Kunke and Maritza Vidales both impressed the judges and improved their season best scores on their respective Floor routines.
Come out and support your gymnastics team as they compete in their last home meet of the season next Tuesday, February 1st, against Badger and Union Grove High Schools.
