WOODSTOCK --- The girls’ gymnastics team finished off another incredible season with a second-place finish at the New England Championships last week with a score of 145.625.
The Lady Centaurs were .25 points away from repeating as New England Champions, but with Barnstable having the meet of their season it was not in the cards for the Centaurs.
The team was disappointed, but in time they will look back on what they have accomplished and they will realize what an amazing three years they have had.
In the last three years the Academy has been State Champions three times, State Open Champions twice and New England Champions and New England Runner-Up.
And it is not over. With many key gymnasts returning next year they are poised for another run next year.
The coach congratulated seniors Shaila Segal, Emily Lipka, and Allison Rich for a great career.
There were some individual award winners as well:
Jackie Deary won the Bronze in the Vault and she came in 5th place in the All-Around.
Shaila Segal won the Silver on the Bars with a score of 9.55.
