What makes Green Mountain's Gym- nastics team so special? According to coach Richi Brown, it's the ability to com- pete for the good of the team while still reaching personal highs as individuals. It took a lot of work, dedication and sweat. But most of all it took talent, which the team had in great abundance. It was a busy season for the team, they competed in nine meets including district and state. But it's obvious that their busy schedule didn't affect their performance. They took first place in The Fort Lup- ton Invitational, The South Area Meet and the District Championships, beating out some of their chief rivals. In the Ever- green-Wheatridge Meet, they were sec- ond only to Wheatridge and they placed third at Varsity League and The Broom- field Invitational. At State, the team placed 7th with a score of 165.4-, and Michelle Wewel placed fourth on beams. In addition, Sharon Dobbs qualified for finals on the vault, and Katie McMordie qualified for finals on the bars and floor exercise. The most outstanding sophomore was Angie Bogus, the most outstanding junior was Katie McMordie, and most outstand- ing senior was Michelle Wewel. l'lere's to a job well done and here's wishing you good luck next year!

What does it take for a group of first year gymnasts to become a working, win- ning team? Two hours of practice and such talented gymnasts as Gina Sersene, Melani Sanger, Lisa Peterson and all of the other team members who worked to- gether to make this year's season one to be proud of. From the team there was good, positive input, especially about the coaches and their fellow team members. It was good expeience, we were ready for the meets but the teams were tough. Certainly their 2-6 record was cause for good spirits among the team. While they concentrated on team work, several Flying High! members reached individual distinction. The title of Most Valuable Gymnast went to Gina Sersante, who has been involved in gymnastics most of her life. Other titles were Most Improved Gymnast going to Melani Sanger with Lisa Peterson finish- ing a close second. Most Improved on vault was Shannon Mclver who also was M.I.P. on the floor exercise. Gina Ser- sante was M.I.P. on the uneven parallel bars, and Lisa Peterson was M.l.P. on the Balance beam. The season finished with a party to celebrate their success. Both on the mat and off.
