PHILADELPHIA—Gymnastics' Ariana Castrence has been named the ECAC Gymnast of the Week following her outstanding performance last Thursday in Temple's season-opener against Illinois and Lindenwood.
Castrence was superb in the first meet of the 2020 campaign. The sophomore competed in the all-around for the Cherry and White, taking second place with a 39.125 (9.8- vault, 9.775- bars, 9.8- beam, 9.75- floor). Her performance on vault earned her the event title and helped propel Temple to its highest event score of the afternoon. The Waldorf, Md. native is ranked No. 1 in the ECAC in the all-around.
