Johns Creek Gymnasts!

These collective individual accomplishments earned the team the honor of the state of Georgia Level 6 USAG Team Co-Championship.  They tied for the highest team score in the state alongside a gym with a much larger and older team!

Kendall Malvin, Hayden Mazur, and Mackenzie Osbourne were honored to be named to the eight-member state team representing Georgia at Regional Competition the weekend of April 21^st.  Their scores were in the top eight out of over 300 competitors in the entire state. Amelia McEwan, Avery Moss, and Kendall Rockwell scored high enough to qualify for individual competition at Regionals.
