Alabama gymnastics is struggling a bit in Year One of Coach Ashley’s tenure, having won just one meet and plummeted all the way down to No. 11 nationally (if the season ended today, this would be the lowest finish for Alabama Gymnastics in the 25-year history of the present ranking system, and the worst in a decade, when Alabama finished 10th).
They are trying, for sure. And the team has a talented blend of youth and experience. Unfortunately, like so many UA athletics endeavors, the season has been positively derailed almost immediately by injuries to some of the best athletes on the roster.
