Gymnastics springs into the spotlight

The Lady Falcons gymnastic team will take on rivals Bayside, Kellam, and Tallwood High Schools on Monday, Jan. 9, at 6 p.m. at home in the gym.

Entering the meet with a 2-2 record to date, the team looks forward to showcasing their talent in a rebuilding season with new athletes and a new coach. Long time coaches Melodie Hartranft and Jaudon Felch both retired last year.

New Head Coach Ms. Spriggins is the Attendance Secretary at the school and is excited to develop her young team that is seemingly full of talent.

“We have six freshman and three sophomores on a team of 14 girls,” Spriggins said. “My goal is just to watch them grow and have our seniors succeed because they’ve stepped up and are really carrying the team.”
