First-place finished by three Cornell gymnasts led the Red to a strong finish.
“The seniors this year carry the team a lot,” said sophomore Amy Shen. “They all compete a lot and contribute to the team scores … This current senior class is such a powerhouse.”
“The legacy I hope to leave this team is that the hard work and attitude you put into any experience is exactly what you will get out of it.”
“Our goal as a team is to improve at every meet and compete with confidence and consistency.”
Cornell was able to find success in the semifinals on Friday evening when the Red set a school record in its team finish and also qualified three athletes for the individual finals on Sunday.
Cornell qualified for a spot at the USAG Collegiate National Championships, where the team hopes to close out its season on a high note.
Despite a middling finish, the team earned its third highest score of the season as it prepares for ECAC and NCAA competition.
The Red had a solid showing, but couldn’t edge out Maryland.
“We have plenty of solid routines with high levels of difficulty that we perform consistently. Now, it’s about focusing on the little things.”
Green became the seventh Cornell gymnast to win a national title and the first ever to win multiple.
