CAPE COD, Mass. - West Chester University gymnast Emily Seigel was named the conference's specialist of the week it was announced by the loop yesterday. It marks the third straight week that a Golden Rams gymnast has walked away with that honor.
Seigel follows in teammate Amber Miller’s and Alli Aquila’s footsteps, after notching career highs in two events during a Division I-dominated meet hosted by Rutgers University (with Towson University). Seigel tied for sixth place on the bars and tied for fifth on the beam, notching a 9.625 in both events. Seigel’s efforts on the balance beam helped the Golden Rams tie a team event record of 47.7, set earlier this season. A solid team contributor, Seigel has exhibited competitiveness all season long.
West Chester will travel to the ECAC Championships later this month for its next competition.
