PIONEERS
EARN BEST ROAD SCORE OF SEASON AT CENTENARY
Goddard and Rodriguez Earn Event Titles
SHREVEPORT,
La. – Texas Woman’s University junior Rachel
Goddard (Scarborough, ONT) and freshman Catherine
Rodriguez (Coppell, TX) put in career performances
to win the beam and vault rotations, respectively at Centenary
Friday night. The Pioneers earned their highest score on
the road this season of 192.100, but Centenary got the
edge at 192.750.
Goddard
earned a personal best 9.85 on beam to win the event for
TWU, which scored its season-high 48.300 as a team. The first
two Pioneer gymnasts fell during their routines, but the
rest rallied as junior Jennifer
Bolli (Rockwall,
TX) scored her career-high with a 9.775. She was
followed by Goddard, junior Lauren
Kondikoff (Mesquite,
TX) with a 9.675 and senior Kristin Frogge
(Cypress, TX) who tied her career mark with a 9.825.
Rodriguez
scored a personal best 9.675 as she introduced a new vault
routine and won first place on the event.
“We
are making progress and I am pleased to see how some of them
stepped up,” said TWU head coach Frank Kudlac. “We
counted falls on bars and beam, but hopefully we can fix
that in the future. I think beam is shaping up to be a really
good event for us. We are excited to come home for a great,
great event on Monday with LSU and Arizona.”
The
Pioneers return home to Kitty Magee Arena this Monday, February
23 for “Pack the Gym Night” as they host No.
10 LSU and 15th-ranked Arizona for a 7 p.m. meet.
