The Jonathan Law gymnastics team recently finished another successful season.
Law competed in the SCC Championship meet on Thursday, February 10, placing second behind champion Daniel Hand.
The final score of the meet was Daniel Hand 141.3, Jonathan Law 133.7, Mercy 122.45, Foran 117.35, and Hamden 109.
Law sophomore Natalie Morell repeated as champion on the uneven bars with a score of 8.9. She was also third in the all-around (34.7).
“Our team did very well,” junior Olivia Coddington said. “We got second place in the SCC championship and have performed very well throughout the whole season.”
The team came out of the meet with three All-Conference gymnasts: Morell, senior Mackenzie Powers, and senior Emma Nelly.
Not only did the girls perform well at SCCs but they won big against rival Foran, defeating them 133.05-116.65.
Law’s Emma Nelly (34.15) won the all-around followed by teammate Natalie Morrell (33.9) and Foran’s Ginger Schmidt (32.4.) Nelly was first in vault (8.55), beam (8.7) and floor exercise (8.7). Morrell was first on bars (8.9) and Nelly was second (8.2).
The Law girls most enjoyed spending time together at meets and practices.
“My favorite part of the season would probably be the meets,” Coddington said. “They are full of energy and show how close our team is.”
Coddington is going to be captain her senior season from 2022-2023 and has big plans for the team.
“My goals for next season is to work on my weaker events and improve,” Coddington said. “As well as getting personal best scores.”
The lady lawmen wrapped up their regular season with their Senior Night on Wednesday, February 15.
