We have to start out this week’s recap with D2 Texas Women’s enormous 196.000 and victory over THREE D1 teams.
That 196 is by far the highest score of any D2 program this season, and ties the highest score in TWU program history, set back in 2003; quite fitting since it was Alumni Day and the team wore “throwback” velvet leos.

I attended a Central Michigan University Summer Camp two years ago. Kasey was the most impressive of dozens of impressive potential recruits. She’s special.
Kasey won the Mid-American Conference Freshman of the Year award despite injuries towards the end of season. And this season she’s coming back from two major arm surgeries.
The Chippewas had a season best 195.775 last meet. Kasey went 9.875 on Bars.

His first is Yurchenko triple twist. Ho hum. 🙂
The second is a Yurchenko with 3/4 twist in the preflight (like Scherbo).

Assistant coaches Kera Molinaro and Josh Nilson will serve as interim co-head coaches for the remainder of the season. A national search for a new head coach will begin immediately
Consistent with University policy, this is a personnel matter and Intercollegiate Athletics will not have any further comment.
Terrible timing for the gymnasts. Mid-season?
