2024-25 Season Review

Gymnastics

The Royal gymnastics team was in a rebuilding year this year after graduating four seniors from the program. The team surpassed initial expectations though by hitting 100 points at their first meet! The team also placed 3rd at sectionals with a season high of 102.95 points, advancing them as a team to regionals. This is only the second time this has occurred in the last 12 seasons. With five freshmen on the team, some without recent gym experience, this was a great finish. Freshman Emiko Vecchio qualified for state as a freshman after placing 4th on beam at regionals. This accomplishment has only occurred one other time in the last 12 seasons. She represented the Royals well at Ball State with a no-fall beam routine, and she was one of only two freshmen to qualify for state as an individual. 

Head Coach Kelly Gridley said, “The team worked very well together. They were a great support system for each other, and they showed great support for their competition as well. The gymnastics world is a very strong community, and I’d have to say our proudest moment was when the sectional championship team jumped up and cheered as the announcement of our advancement to regionals was made. The team still has room to grow, so we are excited for what the future holds for Roncalli gymnastics!”
