KALAMAZOO, Mich. – The Western Michigan gymnastics team turned in its best performance of the 2017 season on Sunday, scoring a 194.900. It is among the top-20 meet scores in program history.
"This week we had a good week of practice where we focused on the details," head coach Penny Jernigan said. "Hitting the cast hand stands on bars, sticking the dismounts and working on the artistry on balance beam and floor. They had a lot of good numbers this week and their confidence was higher coming into this meet. Rachel Binkley got injured in the first event and that really showed the character of this team the way the alternates stepped in for her.
