Level 8’s to Compete at Regionals, Represent Illinois

Ava Winking and Haley Woodyard qualified for the Regionals competition and the Regional Level 8 team after strong performances at USAG‘s Level 8 State Championship. They will compete at Regionals this weekend, April 21-22, in Akron, Ohio.

Only the top eight scores for all Level 8’s in Illinois move forward to represent Illinois on the Regional Level 8 Team. Haley earned the spot the day of competition. Ava was the first alternate. An athlete has dropped from competition, and so Ava will now be on the Regional Level 8 Team. We’re proud that two of those eight girls are from Gem City and Quincy.

Gem City’s gymnastics team coaches are Jacob Huff, Hope Huff, Kiki Backoff, and Damon Wilson. Read more about our gymnastics program here.
