WEST CHESTER, PA – Junior gymnast,
Jordan Coleman (Bowie, Md.) was named the Gymnastics East Conference (GEC) Specialist of the Week for her routine on the uneven bars last Friday night at the University of Maryland in West Chester's season opener.
Coleman wowed all who watched with her amazing bar routine in Friday's meet. The Maryland native scored a 9.925, which broke WCU's school record on the uneven parallel bars and earned her a first-place finish. Coleman also stepped up for her team in a huge way on the vault this week.
After never training on the vault in college, Coleman began vaulting two days prior to the season opener and ended up in the lineup. Her efforts helped West Chester achieve the highest season-opening score in school history of a 193.775.
Coleman and the rest of her Golden Rams teammates head to Boise State this Friday for a quad meet with the host Broncos, Air Force Academy and San Jose State. That meet begins at 9 p.m. EST.
