FROM THE LOCKER ROOM
"Tonight was about fight and grit. We had some uncharacteristic mistakes happen, but we were able to have multiple athletes step up and do some great gymnastics today. We made a few changes to our lines up and it was great to see Keira compete in the all around spot. Our floor team did an amazing job bringing the energy and continuing to show progress each week. We will now rest and recover for a quick turn around for an opportunity to be back in front of our home crowd on Sunday in the Stroh."Â -Brittney Emmons, BGSU gymnastics head coach
UP NEXT
