MILWAUKEE – The Perham Area Gymnastics Academy sent six girls in Levels 6 through 10 to the USA Gymnastics Region 4 Regional Championships held April 14-16.
Competing in Level 6 were Aubree Huseth, Daisy Carlson, Claire Mickelson and Lucy M.; Addison Hill competed in Level 7; and Aryanna Myers competed in Level 8.
“Our goal is to have the girls peak at the right time around their last meet,” said Coach Sith Hansana. “They did a phenomenal job and brought home some hardware!”
