Underclass Gymnasts Start Making Big Moves

The Hilltoppers had their first away meet of the season facing off against perennial powerhouse, #10 ranked St. Thomas Aquinas HS (formerly Bishop Ahr HS) on Tuesday 9/28. STA won 108.225 to Summit’s even 100, but the underclass athletes continued to make big contributions to the team that will be important as the Hilltoppers move into October.

Freshman Julia Eroles achieved a career high 8.6 on vault and competed beam and floor as well. Captain seniors Mia Murdock (33.175) and Emma Burke (33.00) continued their streak of competing every single event in every meet so far this season.
