Mountain Top sophomore Gianna Plaksa performs on the balance beam on Dec. 8 in McGuirk Arena.
Central Michigan Gymnastics got its first opportunity to perform in front of a crowd at Thursday's Excite night at McGuirk Arena.
The event gave fans a better understanding of gymnastics while having fun.
The evening began with introductions of all 20 members followed by a short warm-up. Head Coach Jerry Reighard then introduced discipline and then the first event, vault.
Reighard broke down the specifics while a few gymnasts went through their routines. The same was done for all the events, uneven bars, balance beam and floor.
