Nebraska Mens Gymnastics

Last week I made the pilgrimage to one of the most famous gyms in the States.

Just a few Husker greats of the past: Phil Cahoy, Jim Hartung, Steve Elliott, Scott Johnson, Wes Suter, Kevin Davis, Patrick Kirksey, Dennis Harrison, Richard Grace, Marshall Nelson.

University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Nebraska Men’s Gymnastics. Under the tutelage of the winningest active head coach in NCAA history, Francis Allen, the Husker men have placed first or second at the NCAA championships 15 of the last 24 years, advancing to the team finals on 16 occasions.

Of the current team, I knew best Canadian Stephen Tétrault who’s now a Senior and a leader. As with their women’s team, Nebraska has been popular with Canadians over the years including 1999 NCCA Champion Jason Hardabura.

Jim Hartung is one of the Assistant Coaches now. What goes around, comes around.

I’ll wear my Huskers Gymnastics t-shirt with pride.
