Wagner Bon Homme gymnasts competed in one of their final regular season meets Thursday in Vermillion. The girls are always fun to watch. This fun bunch of girls always finds a way to take less than ideal situations and shine. They have found ways to shine for each other, or shine simply for oneself when needed. Although they may not have stuck the routines, as we had all hoped, and some scores were not where we had wanted, stuck together, remembered these less than fortunate moments do not define them as a person or a gymnast. However, the way they respond and can bounce back to learn from them are very character building and defining moments. Go out and truly believe in yourselves and teammates this final home meet. Give it your all in Hot Springs at the Region meet. Coach Schroeder and I believe in you!
