Lindenwood kicked off week one, in honor of Team 1, with a splash. With the Lions starting off 2024 with a program best opening score, what else could be in store for its first home meet of the season? This team is full of stars, so it’s hard to choose only a few to watch out for. Of course we can’t miss Gayla Griswold, even when she’s not in the vault lineup. Nya Kraus entered the all-around chat last weekend approaching the 39-mark. Trinity Caffey started off her junior campaign with monster scores on vault and floor. Needless to say, this is going to be an exciting day.
This will be visiting Greenville’s first meet weekend of the year, coming off a competition on Friday at an Illinois State quad. The Panthers opened 2024 with the second highest score in the team’s history with a 185.600, and Hyland Arena is a great venue to keep the ball rolling. With this being the team’s second season, there’s plenty of time for these athletes to begin to make a name for themselves. Keep an eye out for Amara Nelson who is coming off a 38.000 in her first all-around performance. Rachel Miller’s floor set is also a must-watch routine.
