Saratoga Springs Gymnastics Opens Year With Three Wins

SARATOGA SPRINGS – The Saratoga Springs High School Varsity Gymnastics team has served notice that they intend to be a force to be reckoned with again, as they paced to their third win to open the season in a meet against Shaker on Tuesday, December 15, at the Wilton branch of the Saratoga Regional YMCA. 

 

Saratoga swept the high marks in all events, as well as second place in all categories and third in all but one. Reigning Section 2 vault champ Julia VanHorne took that event and the bars. Kate Della Ratta finished first on the beam and Laura Eberlein was first in the floor event. The all-around high score was posted by Courtney Kirsche.

 

Their next match at home will be on Tuesday, December 22 – the start of a two-day series against Guilderland.
