Hey Terp Fans!
It's been an exciting past couple of weeks for the GymTerps and this past week was no different. The GymTerps competed in our last home meet of the season against UNH, William and Mary, West Chester, and Temple. Even though this was our 5th meet in the past 13 days you could tell that the GymTerps were determined to go out with a bang! The best part is that that's exactly what happened!! We ended up scoring a season high 195.800 and came out victorious against our four competitors!! It was a great way to make our seniors Sarah Faller, Leah Slobodin and Emily Brauckmuller's last meet in the Xfinity Center special and one they will always remember.
Unfortunately the GymTerps don't have any meets this weekend, but are looking forward to heading into postseason and competing at the BiG Five Meet in Illinois on Saturday, March 11! At the BiG Five Meet the Terps will be competing against Illinois, Nebraska, Michigan State, and Ohio State. This meet is going to be televised on the Big Ten Network, so make sure you tune in and cheer on your favorite GymTerps!!!!
In preparation, for the Big Five meet this week the GymTerps are going to spend our time in the gym perfecting our routines and fine-tuning our skills by making sure were hitting handstands, sticking dismounts, and minimizing the deductions in our routines. In addition, this Sunday we had a mock meet just to keep our mindset in competition mode. Needless to say the GymTerps killed it and are looking better than ever and can't wait to dominate at the Big Five Meet!!
Well that's all for now, but stay tuned for more updates on the GymTerps 2017 season! And as always Go Terps!
