The Caledonia/Spring Grove/Houston gymnastics team took part in the Southeast Minnesota Conference Meet on Saturday, Feb. 10 and scored its highest team score of the year, achieving one of its goals for the year.

Finally, for the floor routines, Kittleson scored highest for the Warriors with an 8.900, followed by Myrah again with an 8.800, and then Madelyn Foellmi with a score of 8.750.
“Wow, what an exciting meet," coach Kettner said. "The athletes were really focused and had great energy all night. Our biggest highlight of the night has to be our team score of 131.55, which helped us crush our team goal from pre-season."
She continued, "The girls have been working hard all season to achieve this goal. Notable individual performances include those from Harper Myrah, Paizley Lange, and Vivian Kittleson. All three received all-conference honors for their performances. We are eager to continue this momentum into sectionals next week.”
The gymnastics team will compete at the section competition Saturday, Feb. 17 in Rochester.
