The March 16, 2013 meet at the University of Minnesota showcased a lot of talented gymnasts. Minnesota Wins! It was an exciting meet, starting at 6:00 p.m tonight. The score was 197.225 Minnesota and 195.050 Ohio State. The Gophers scored 9.80 and above in all four events, a super strong showing! I think the judging was a little generous, especially on beam. Some competitors had more deductions than 0.2, in my opinion. The highlight of the meet was the floor. Ohio State has some great tumblers, and excellent choreography. Minnesota was really good too, especially Lindsay Mable's routine.
Both teams sported pink leotards, commemorating breast cancer awareness. But it did cause for some confusion as to which team we needed to be cheering for, especially since I brought a guest who was not familiar with the Gophers.
The All Around Winner was Gopher Lindsay Mable with a score of 39.525, Gopher Cierra Tomson was second with 39.350 and Melanie Shaffer of Ohio State was third with 39.175.
At the end of the meet, there was a ceremony for Gopher seniors Janell Campbell and Shannon Golich. The program had a nice interview with both women. All in all it was a great meet and I'm sorry to have to wait until next year to see more live College Gymnastics. I think coach Meg Stephenson said that Regionals would be held in Minnesota next year?
