SEATTLE, Wa. (Jan. 21) -- Kari Kelly, Jaynie
Reynolds and Debra Huss all finished atop the awards podium but it
was not enough to overcome Greta Leach's winning all-around
performance as Seattle Pacific University narrowly lost to San
Jose State 190.500 to 190.850 in a Mountain Pacific Sports
Federation women's gymnastics meet Friday night at Brougham
Pavilion.
Leach tied with Kelly (Sr., Yakima, Wa.) with
9.675 on vault, and scored a 9.825 on balance beam to win both
events. The sophomore from Santa Rosa, California danced a third
place 9.700 on floor en route to her winning all-around total
(38.725).
Narrowly bested by Leach, Huss (So.,
Orangevale, Ca.) managed silver in the all-around (38.625),
tumbling her second 9.850 in as many weeks to win floor, and tying
for second with teammate Sarah Sullivan (So., Salem, Or.) and the
Spartans' Jennifer Greene on the uneven bars. Huss also negotiated
the balance beam to a 9.750 second place tie with San Jose's Leah
Bigelow.
Reynolds started off the night on vault with a
third place tie with Sullivan and the Spartans' Michelle Minotti,
each athlete earning 9.600. One rotation later, Reynolds swung a
9.725 to win the uneven bars.
The Falcons had a .25 lead heading into the
final rotation, but San Jose mustered a 48.25, their best event
performance of the night, to end the competition on beam. SPU
churned out a 47.875 on floor for its top event performance.
With the win, San Jose State remains undefeated
(2-0) while Seattle Pacific drops to 0-2 and tumbles next at the
University of Washington on Jan. 28. Official start time is
scheduled for 7PM. The Falcons return to Seattle on Feb. 12, to
host Oregon State.
