Sarah Bombadier placed 5th in the all-around competition with a 30.95. Kaylee Torpey continues to improve putting up her season high all-around score last night with a 30.95 for 6th place.

It was a night of several wobbles and bobbles by Whitman-Hanson, but also a few uncanny low scores on excellent routines that could have secured the win over Plymouth should the scores have been more typical. The team will use this as motivation, and we look forward to our rematch with Plymouth next Friday night, January 27th.
