Wednesday January fourth, The Cardinals take on battlefield, Colgan, Osbourn Park, and Patriot High School in their first gymnastics meet. The ladies and Coach Hackmann were eager to get out onto the mats.  

Six girls competed floor, beam, vault and bars. Our team placed fourth overall. Even though they were nervous, the ladies did great! We did have a bit of a disadvantage; this was our first meet, but the other schools already had their first meet, but know the girls will work even harder for their next meet on Wednesday.  

The audience rooted for everyone competing. Typically is hard for you to see everyone’s performances because all events happen at once, but this meet was different. I could see all the events. Every girl was on the die to cheer on their teammates.  

If you want to cheer on The Cardinals, come out to their meets every Wednesday!
