Pendrys [Blog Entry] http://www.gymnastike.org/blogs/blogger/David F. Pendrys/10899-the-week-ahead-in-new-englandnj The previews have gotten much shorter just due to a variety of factors. Here’s the weekend ahead in a nutshell. Brown is off until next week. Southern Connecticut, Temple, #31 Maryland at Penn Friday 7pm, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA SCSU and Temple had a close meet against each other last week, and Penn continues to improve their scoring week to week. Maryland is one of the top teams on the eastern seaboard. Temple and Penn are working towards ECAC D1 Championships just two weeks from this weekend, and SCSU has their own championship meet that weekend as well. Maryland has both regionals and EAGLs to worry about. Routine Videos from my contributions to Gymnastike: SCSU: May 5 Feb 21 Feb 20 Feb 6 Jan 24 Jan 16 Temple: May 5 Penn: Ivy Classic Feb 14 Maryland: Jan 30 #29 North Carolina State at #34 New Hampshire Friday 7pm, Lundholm Gymnasium, Durham, NH The two EAGL teams will meet up in the last regular season home meet for UNH’s nine seniors. Though both teams and the rest of the EAGL will be back in Lundholm on the 27th for the championships. Both teams are currently ranked within the top 36 and hope to stay that way to lock up a bid to regionals. The Wolfpack and the Wildcats have been scoring close to each other so anything can happen in this one. Routine Videos from my contributions to Gymnastike: UNH: Feb 12 Jan 24 Jan 9 Towson, Bridgeport, Yale at Rutgers Saturday 1pm, Livingston Gymnasium, Piscataway, NJ Towson is the D1 ECAC Champion, Bridgeport is the D2 ECAC Champion and each had a close meet last weekend at UB. Each team will meet again in New Jersey as Yale and Rutgers meanwhile will likely have a close meet of their own and the individual competition among gymnasts on all four teams with a Towson’s power packed lineup going up against Bridgeport’s rotations that have been picking up higher scores in past weeks. Yale and Rutgers each are anchored by a variety high scorers as well.

In recent years it was usually six of the eight teams generally battling it out for the top spots and slots at D3 Nationals, though now MIT is gone, leaving SUNY Cortland, SUNY Brockport, Ithaca College, Springfield College, and Ursinus College to compete. Brockport has been on fire all season climbing both the ECAC and D3 ladder and at home gets a chance to pick up the title, but Cortland, Ithaca, Springfield, and Ursinus come loaded as well, and their RQS is very close. Plus several teams high scores come close to Brockport’s average. ECAC D3’s are generally unpredictable.

Pendrys [Blog Entry] http://www.gymnastike.org/blogs/blogger/David F. Pendrys/10814-the-week-ahead-in-brief Apologies for the much shorter than usual previews. Just a matter of time constraints. Anyway, the week ahead for the region's teams is as follows: Towson, Temple, Southern Connecticut at Bridgeport University of Bridgeport, Wheeler Rec Center, 7pm Friday, March 5th. Towson is currently the ECAC Division 1 champion and their hosts Bridgeport are the reigning D2 champs in the ECAC as well, yet either of these teams could beat the other. Temple is a frequent opponent of each as well. Southern Connecticut is not only a frequent opponent of UB, and a presumed rival, but has also seen their scores rising in past weeks. Putting rankings and scoring aside it's going to be an exciting meeting between four conference teams. Additionally it will be senior night for UB's small but talented class of seniors. Brockport, Rutgers at Cornell Cornell University, Teagle Hall, 1pm Saturday March 6th The Division 3 leading Brockport Golden Eagles head to take on a fellow instate team in the Ivy Classic Champions themselves. Rutgers meanwhile crosses the border to create a meet of Scarlet vs. Red. Could be a very interesting meet for all the teams involved. Brockport has just this meet before they host ECAC Championships where they hope to win. Cornell and Rutgers meanwhile have plenty of regular season left before their respective postseasons. Yale at Springfield Springfield College, Blake Arena 1pm, Sunday, March 7th It'll be senior day at D3 Springfield, but also a day in which Gynecological Cancer awareness is promoted through the Tumble for Teal mantra attached to the meet. On the floor itself, the Yale Bulldogs are coming off an Ivy Classic with it's highs and lows, and will face a Springfield team participating in their last meet before ECAC Championships the following week. Throwing the question of who wins out the window, each team brings with it an especially exciting floor lineup and both teams should bring a lot of impact to the mat. Maryland, Michigan, and Bridgeport at Penn State Penn State University, 2pm, Sunday March 7th In a unique meet to say the least, Big Ten rivals Michigan and Penn State will meet up. These two teams, nationally ranked, also lead the northeast region. Maryland and Bridgeport have met before this season with the Terps gaining the upper hand, but this will be the rematch. UMD is capable of making a run at the two Big Ten teams as well based on past scoring. The true winner in this one will be the fans who get to see all of the action. New Hampshire at George Washington George Washington University, 2pm, Sunday March 7th The Wildcats head south the nation's capital to take on fellow EAGL team GW. These teams will be among those at the EAGL championships at UNH in a few week, but for now the meet is on George Washington's home turf. UNH has seen their scores drop in the past two road meets and would hope to keep the scoring back up towards their home numbers. David F. Pendrys http://www.gymnastike.org/blogs/blogger/David F.

Pendrys/10744-naigc-club-gymnastics-sacred-heart-at-uconn     With conditions uncertain up in New Hampshire I cancelled my trip up there to cover the meet, but that gave me the chance to take in a club meet instead.    TOLLAND, CT- When the University of Connecticut club team started competing, Boston University hosted them in their first competitive meet, and when Sacred Heart's club team was reactivated after a lull, UConn served to host their return to action. Tri-Town Gymnastics was the scene as a group of parents and spectators gathered around each apparatus as the teams competed for the lone judge in attendance. It was a cozy event, where each team cheered for the other as they competed. UConn began the meet with the customary "UConnnnn Huskies!" chant. The Huskies were clad in blue to match the schools color, and the Pioneers from SHU wore black with red, the color of their school as well. Each team representing schools that have risen to prominence from opposite parts of the state.   The skills varied, the execution varied, but the gymnasts all made their salutes and competed, doing their best and if appearances are any indication having fun in the process. When a landing was stuck the crowd gave an appreciative clap. Each team moved through the events wrapping up on the floor, where a variety of well chosen music selections accompanied each competitor as they flipped and danced along, the floor itself ringed by the spectators.   The problem with saying that these gymnasts do it just for the love of the sport can imply that scholarship athletes at the varsity level have other motives, and who am I to judge? But turning it around, if we assume that all gymnasts do it for the love of the sport, then it is still worthy of note that these gymnasts did not only join their teams, they created them. There may not be the army of fans as one might find at Gampel or the Pitt Center any given night, but there is the appreciation of their teammates and those who made a trip into Tolland on a Saturday afternoon to watch some gymnasts do what they do.     ?
