Tunget gym qualifies 4

A misplaced set of papers included sports stories from early June. Even though the stories are not as timely as liked, it is with sincere apologies from Sports Editor Wayne Crick that they find their way to the sports section of The Delta County Independent.

One of the missing stories included a report from Brenda Tunget regarding Tunget Gymnastics final state qualifying meet on June 2, 2012, in Grand Junction at the Kidzplex Gym.

Level Four athletes took second with Level Three placing fifth and the Optional 5 team took sixth.

Four more gymnasts qualified to compete in the state meet. Those qualifying athletes include Lexy Loy (Level Three), Lyla Baril-Hayutin (Level Four), Tess Gore and Lily Stedman at Optional 5.
