Penn State women’s gymnastics finishes fourth at Big Tens

Trust has triumphed doubt, courage has triumphed fear and a smart gymnast knows she cannot win without both forces guiding her to her rightful fate.

Penn State has been evolving into a team that looks fear in the eyes and conquers it with better scores and better routines.

This past Saturday in Lincoln, Nebraska the Nittany Lions competed against high-ranking teams during the Big Ten Championships. The Lions placed fourth against teams like No. 7 Michigan, No. 12 Nebraska, No. 16 Minnesota, No. 18 Iowa, Ohio State, Michigan State, Illinois, Rutgers, and Maryland.

“I thought the girls did great, they’re improving every week,” coach Jeff Thompson said.
