For Eastern Michigan senior gymnast Kimberly Ebeyer, Sunday afternoon marked a homecoming as her Eagles faced off against the Ball State University Cardinals.
Ebeyer, who grew up an hour and a half away from Muncie in Greenwood, Ind., had family and friends in attendance but also had her sister, Sarah, competing for the Cardinals.
“I love having my sister here,” Sarah Ebeyer said. “We talk to each other any day, all day but having her here in the same arena as me is incredible. Being able to come back and remember how blessed we are that we both have such an amazing talent and we’re both living our dream to be collegiate athletes, being able to compete side by side again is awesome especially since it’s in Indiana.
