Ball State gymnastics has added Maria Perez-Banus to the program for the upcoming school year. A Chilean-born standout, Perez-Banus will join the Cardinals in fall 2019.
Head coach Joanna Saleem says Perez-Banus will be a great fit within the current roster and that her level of difficulty on bars is "exceptional."
"Marimar brings a lot of gymnastics experience with her, having competed internationally for the past three years," Saleem said. "Her competitive presence on beam is a joy to watch, and as an all-arounder she will bring a lot of depth to our team. I am looking forward to working with this sweet young lady.
