Siegel Balances School Record as SPU Gymnasts Post Top 10 Mark for Second Week in Row
February 3, 2001

SEATTLE, Wa.--Alison Siegel set a school record on balance beam as Seattle Pacific University posted a 191.475, the seventh best score on the school's all-time list, but it was not enough to dull a 193.425 team score by visitor San Jose State in a gymnastics meet Saturday night at Brougham Pavilion.

Seattle Pacific's score marked the second week in a row the Falcons (2-3) had tumbled off a top ten all-time mark. The Falcons hit 191.875 in a tri-meet at the University of Washington last week. Siegel (Jr., Oakland, Ca.) earned a 9.925 on the balance beam during the third rotation, eclipsing Erica Thompson's 9.900 set in 1994. The junior also won top honors on vault (9.800).

Erin Kawasaki (Sr., Seattle, Wa.) swung the uneven bars for a second place 9.825 and Kristin Strid (So., Kingsburg, Ca.) won silver in the all-around, completing the four events for a 38.675.

The Falcons travel down the coast to Sacramento State for a Friday night (Feb. 9) meet. Official start time is scheduled for 7:00 P.M.
