| Gymnastics club fosters young talent Posted: 13 Apr 2010 07:08 PM PDT The Marlborough ExpressThe Blenheim Gymnastics Club is a vibrant organisation which caters for more than 150 gymnasts. Based at their club headquarters in Opawa St, the club caters for boys and girls from the age of five in the kindy gym classes to 18-year-olds in a range of divisions, from recreational to competitive, providing good facilities, equipment and coaching. All members have plenty of opportunities to participate and compete in various events, and at the end of the year, special training is undertaken for those chasing their recreational badges. The club's competitive gymnasts compete throughout the year from levels four to six, working towards selection for the junior nationals at Mystery Creek, Hamilton, in September. The club has a senior gymnast, Anna Tempero, who will trial at the senior nationals. Qualifying competitions are being held in Blenheim, Nelson and Wellington. Isaac Sutherland is another young Blenheim gymnast on the rise. He is a member of the extended national squad and attends regular training sessions in Christchurch as he strives for full national representation. Recreational gymnasts travel to Greymouth, Nelson, Christchurch and Kaikoura for competition. The year's highlight is the Marlborough gymnastic championships at Marlborough Lines Stadium on June 19 to 20. More than 300 participants are expected from around the South Island. A new purpose-built floor will be in action for the first time. Another key addition to the club's plant is new foam in the trampoline pit, which makes it much safer to practise acrobatic moves. A new landing platform has also been built at one end of the pit to help gymnasts with vaulting routines. Gymnastics can help people in many ways to develop in other sports codes, requiring things such as strength and flexibility. Anyone is welcome to visit the club and join up to either do gymnastics or help out in any way. Those interested should phone Kim Nicholls, 021 161 1480 or 572 8568.

| HIGH SCHOOL GYMNASTICS: Balancing act Posted: 13 Apr 2010 07:46 PM PDT

Terrill, a sophomore, has been splitting time between gymnastics and football. His limited time in the gym didn't keep him from winning the all-around title at the regional meet two weeks ago in Odessa. SAN ANGELO, Texas — Central High School sophomore Ryan Terrill began gymnastics at the age of 3. During his childhood, he played just about every sport available to him, from soccer to baseball. By the time he got to middle school, all he wanted to do was play football. Then when he got to high school, something lured him back to the gymnastics gym. "Even when I quit, I knew I was going to do gymnastics later on," Terrill said. "I was pretty sure I was going to do it in high school." When Terrill did get back into gymnastics last year, he quickly established himself as one of the better all-around gymnastics in the district and the region. And as a freshman, he turned some heads with a 27th-place finish in the all-around at the state meet last April in Garland. "As an athlete, he is great," Central boys gymnastics coach Kern Arrott said. "He is a very, very good athlete. A lot of that is just him, God-given talent. Doing gymnastics as long as he has has helped him as far as awareness and being able to do a lot of the things that he does." Terrill never gave up football and now splits his time between both sports — as much as he can. There were no scheduling conflicts during football season but the end of gymnastics season has been conflicting with offseason football. Terrill isn't able to make it to gymnastics practice until the school day ends. By then, his teammates have been working out for an entire class period. "It has been a process," Arrott said. "It takes time. He is getting now to a level where his difficulty isn't quite what the other guys have." His limited time in the gym didn't keep him from winning the all-around title at the regional meet two weeks ago in Odessa. But he and his coach know that he could be doing more. "He is just now really starting to take off and there are some higher-level skills that he would be capable of doing. With him going back to football (after the state meet), he will cut that off." Splitting time between two sports has kept Terrill busy. He is up before school practicing football and stays later after working out for gymnastics. "It is pretty hard doing both," Terrill said. "Going to football early in the morning and then coming out (to gymnastics) after school. I was pretty dead-tired." It is just impossible for him to pick one sport over the other. "It is a hard question to answer," Terrill said. "I like them both a lot." Going into this weekend's state meet in Alvin, Terrill has had an outstanding season despite his limited time in the gym. Going into the district meet, he won the all-around several times during the year. At the district meet, he led the all-around after the compulsory round but fell to fourth after the optional round. That was mainly due to his difficulty level not being as high as a pair of Odessa Permian gymnasts and one from Odessa High. He also had trouble on rings that cost him a higher score. "Compulsory-wise, I knew he could hang with those guys and he proved it," Arrott said. "It is hard on a kid because it takes so much time, especially on the optional skills. You have to take more time and you have to have more repetition to be able to throw those higher-level skills." At the regional meet, he again led the all-around after the first day of competition. He fared better on a toned-down rings routine and was able to hold off the Permian duo to win the regional championship. He became the first regional all-around champion for Central since Luke Davis won it in 2005. But Arrott and Terrill know that he can be better than he is, especially with two more years of high school left. "I think he could potentially be a state champion," Arrott said. "The potential is there and we will get to see how he does at state this weekend, and he is just a sophomore. It is wide open as to what he could do if he was in here all the time." Terrill knows he can be better and he aspires to be one of the best in the state. He is working his way up the ladder and will only improve over his next two seasons. How much he will improve is up to him. And he knows it. "I want to throw big skills," Terrill said. "That is what I want to do. I haven't really had the time to learn them. "People have said that I can win state, next year even. And senior year. It does make me want to spend more time in the gym. I want to get a lot better." Back to the present, Terrill and his teammates will be in Alvin over the next three days trying to improve on a seventh-place finish at the state meet a year ago. Led by the sophomore, the Bobcats have been improving all season, even making a six-point improvement in their score between the district and regional meets. "We can do really well if we just focus and keep our routines real clean and do what we know we can do," Terrill said. "Just stay focused." Based on regional scores from around the state, the Bobcats are seeded eighth going into the meet. A top-six finish would be a big accomplishment considering how young and inexperienced the team was when the season began. And despite his amount of time in the gym and in offseason football, Terrill should be among the top all-arounders again.

| M. Gymnastics. Field Set for 2010 NCAA Gymnastics Championships at West Point Posted: 13 Apr 2010 09:34 AM PDT April 13, 2010
WEST POINT, N.Y. - The National Collegiate Athletic Association Men's Gymnastics Committee announced the field of 12 teams along with the individual qualifiers from non-qualifying teams who will be converging on the United States Military Academy next week (April 15-17) to compete in the 2010 NCAA Men's Gymnastics Championships at Christl Arena. The No. 6 California men's gymnastics team (7-7 overall) will face off against No. 10 Nebraska, No. 7 Minnesota, No. 2 Oklahoma, No. 3 Michigan and No. 11 Iowa in the team qualifier on April 15. Competition begins Thursday, April 15, with two pre-qualifying sessions starting at 10 a.m. and at 4 p.m., PST, in the later of which Cal will be competing. The top three teams from each session along with the top three individuals in each of the six team events not part of a qualifying team, or as an all-arounder, advance to the team and all-around finals Friday evening, April 16, to vie for the national title. The team finals will be televised by ESPN2 on tape-delay April 23 at 1:30 p.m. The top 10 gymnasts in each of the six team events Friday evening advance to Saturday's (April 17) NCAA Championship individual event finals at 4 p.m. PST, where the top six finishers on each of the six events will be awarded All-America status. The participating teams in the order of their rankings and qualifying scores are Illinois (358.030), Oklahoma (357.410), Michigan (356.810), Stanford (354.480), Ohio State (349.690), California (349.040), Minnesota (348.790), Penn State (348.340), Illinois-Chicago (343.050), Nebraska (342.200), Iowa (341.770) and Temple (338.340). Thursday's pre-qualification session has top-ranked Illinois headlining the afternoon pre-qualification session that includes defending champion Stanford, Ohio State, Penn State, Illinois-Chicago and Temple along with individual all-arounders Ty Evans and Josh Fox of Springfield along with William & Mary's Derek Gygaz. Competing in the evening session are Nebraska, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Michigan, California and Iowa along with individual all-arounders Andrew Faulk of Navy, Nash Mills of Air Force and Army's Ty Smith. Against the teams in their field, the Bears have only met with Nebraska, Oklahoma and Iowa this season. Cal posted a 349.450-331.050 victory over Iowa at the Pacific Coast Collegiate Classic on Feb. 20. The Bears recently saw action against the Huskers and Sooners at the MPSF Championships on April 3. At that conference championship, Cal defeated Nebraska, 354.540-341.650 but Oklahoma edged the Bears out of the title, 354.550-354.450. The 2010 field is very deep with the national title up for grabs as just 1.22 separates the top three teams' qualifying scores. Stanford will have the bulls-eye on its back as the defending champion Cardinal pulled out a tight victory in last year's race behind a 362.8-361.5 edging of Michigan. Oklahoma (361.2) was just 0.25-behind the Wolverines with the Cal posting a 361.15 for fourth place, which was just 1.65 off of Stanford's winning mark. Illinois (359.3) and Ohio State (355.95) rounded out last year's top six teams and are among the returnees for the 68th championships. Illinois, ranked No. 1 in the country, captured the Big 10 title, while No. 3 Michigan was runner-up followed by No. 8 Penn State. In the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Championship, No. 2 Oklahoma edged California, ranked No. 6, by one tenth of a point (354.45-354.55) to claim the title. Stanford, at the time ranked No. 1 in the country, took third (347.15) at the MPSF meet and heads into the NCAA's ranked fourth in the country with a 354.48 average. Individually, Illinois has the No. 1 ranked gymnast in two events in Daniele Ribiero (pommel horse) and Paul Ruggeri (high bar) with Oklahoma's Steven Legendre the leader on floor exercise and in the all-around. The top gymnast in the country on vault is Timothy Gentry from Stanford, with Brandon Wynn of Ohio State and California's Kyle Bunthuwong ranks first on still rings and parallel bars, respectively. The Big Ten dominates this year's NCAA field with six teams (Illinois, Michigan, Ohio State, Minnesota, Penn State and Iowa) making the trip to West Point, while the MPSF has four teams (Oklahoma, Stanford, California, Nebraska) followed by two from the EIGL, which host Army is a member of, in Illinois-Chicago and Temple.
