Cardinal gymnasts ready for Sections
The Redwood Valley gymnastics team wrapped up the regular season with a pair of wins over MAHACA and Marshall and will now gear up for the Section 3A Meet which takes place Saturday morning in Windom.The Cards will head into the Section 3A Meet led by a foursome of seniors in Avery Wilson - a four-time State qualifier - McKenna Flinn, Olivia Stoterau and Kharma Mathiowetz.Juniors Chloe Walter and Ellie Nelson, along with Madison Ourada and seventh-grader Brynn Green have also been key contributors and will help the Cards as they face a strong Worthington team amongst others in the battle for State.“Going into Sections Worthington is definitely the favorite to go to state for the 10th year in a row,” Coach Dean Wilson said, “They are ranked as one of the top teams in Class A even with the loss of one of their top girls.” According to Wilson, Luverne has gotten healthy at the right time of the season and Pipestone has come on very strong heading into the postseason as well.“We are going to have to have an extremely good meet to get the better of some of these teams,” he said, “We have four seniors that are going to be competing in their last Sections and we’ll look to them for leadership.”Wilson is looking to qualify for her fifth straight state meet after qualifying a year ago in the All-Around.
