Power tumblers compete in Oskaloosa

On Feb. 8 the MAT Tumbling and Trampoline team traveled to Oskaloosa High School to participate in a competition. Power Tumbling was the focus for this event, as there were no trampoline events held.

The MAT team brought home several first and second place trophies after competing at this USTA/AAU sanctioned meet. Many athletes saw improvements in scores and placement, showing that hard work, focus and dedication can pay off, head coach Ron Brooks said.
