BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – For the third consecutive year, junior Alyssa Nocella – a member of the Bowling Green State University gymnastics team – will compete in the all-around at the NCAA Regionals. Nocella will compete on April 4 as a part of the Columbus Regional. Additionally, sophomore Lauren Feely (beam) and freshman Laura Mitchell were selected as alternates.
Nocella – who qualified as the top all-around performer in the region – was the only Falcon this season to generate in all-around score at all of Bowling Green's 12 competitions. Nocella placed first in the all-around at six meets in 2015.
Last week, Nocella was named to the All-Mac First Team for the second straight year.

Against the Cardinals, Nocella scored career highs on the all-around (39.350) and on floor (9.925). Her floor score ranks fifth all-time in program history, while her all-around score ranks third best in BGSU gymnastics history.
Nocella joins Megan Harrington (2012-14) and Breanne Guy (2008-10) as the only other Falcons across the last 15 years to qualify to compete at the NCAA Regionals in three straight years.
