Mistakes cost the Kent State gymnastics team first place

Kentucky defeated Kent State 195.800-194.625 at Ball State University’s Think Pink meet. The Flashes topped Ball State’s score of 194.375, allowing Kent State to remain undefeated in the Mid-American Conference. Lindenwood University took fourth place with 190.950 points.

Biggin said while the Flashes defeated Ball State and Lindenwood, they need higher scores to qualify for regionals.

“Wins and losses are nice, but in our sport, it’s not the only thing,” Biggin said. “The score is probably much more important, and we’re just not getting the job done consistently. When we go on the road, we’re having too many people fall and make mistakes.
