Gymnasts Envision Unparalleled Future K.K. Kozik does a simple squat vault over the horse. Youth was the main mark of the 1976-77 gymnastics team. In only its second year of existence, the squad was comprised of just three seniors and no less than 24 underclassmen. This inex- perience may help explain a disappointing 4-5 showing in the Suburban 1 League. Competing in four events in each of the nine circuit meets, the team earned a total of 14 first place and 23 second place judgments. Coach Elmina Stewart ' s most consistent performers were freshman Carol Parker, sophomores Jean Bernhard and Sal- lie Moulder, and juniors Margie Harris and Elaine Hallett. The latter two, along with senior Louise Zemaitis, also served as captains. Earning noteworthy individual honors were Harris and Parker. While Margie exhibited third place form on the balance beam, Carol placed fourth all-around in the league meet at the regular season ' s end. Both went on to the District Meet, where Carol ' s impressive display on the uneven bars gained her a spot in the PIAA championships at Shippensburg. It is hoped that this talented freshman and friends will contribute to many GV victories in the seasons ahead. Sallie Moulder appears to be suspended in air as she performs on the bars.
