NCGA closes the door on the regular season but didn’t do so quietly. Brockport’s Kyra Figurelli etched her name in the history books with a tied program record of 9.925. Reigning champs, UW-Oshkosh, finds itself just behind Brockport in the rankings, with UW-La Crosse is hot on both of those heels.
However, those rankings don’t mean much just yet. All that matters is how the East and West look at their respective regionals this upcoming weekend. The top three teams from each regional will battle it out at Nationals.
Superlatives
Undercover Boss
Gustavus’ Olivia Jahnke has been chugging away all season long, leading the team on beam and floor for the majority of the year. Week nine featured a career high floor performance, and another team-leading beam routine. What can we say? She’s regionals ready.
Rachel Chesley Appreciation
Some athletes enter the sophomore scaries after having strong freshman campaigns. Not Rachel Chesley. This athlete only gets better. She’s been a steady force for La Crosse on three events. Most notably she’s gained consistency on bars to go along with her astounding power. Don’t be surprised if she makes some noise this postseason.
Senior Day Nostalgia
Take a scroll through Brockport’s Instagram to enjoy just how far these soon-to-be graduated seniors have come, with their compulsory routines woven into their collegiate routines. Someone pass us a tissue, please.
NCGA-East Meet of the Week
Springfield at Ithaca
Why Should You (Re)Watch? Ithaca has been on a streak of wins, and the Bombers have won the past four dual meets, in a row. Cameryn Nichols came knocked on the door of her beam and program record. And Emily Kobusky’s round off layout stepout series on beam continues to be a knock out. And Tori Sipes’ double layout off bars? Swoon.
Are These Teams Trending Up or Down?: Both the Bombers and the Pride are working their way back on bars, although beam is starting to give both some trouble. But everyone is holding steady.
WIAC Meet of the Week
UW-Oshkosh at UW-Whitewater
Why Should You (Re)Watch? The vault squads showed out, both surpassing the 48.400 mark. Kara Welsh’s 9.850 was a stand out among all the great routines on the event. Delaney Cienkus came in clutch, yet again, with beautiful sets on beam and floor. The latter features a nice back two and a half twist that is not talked about enough.
Are These Teams Trending Up or Down?:UW-Oshkosh is trending about the same. That’s to say, they’re still among the best. Whitewater is getting warmer, improving at the end of this regular season. Keep an eye out for both of these teams at regionals.
