MAT Tumbling competes in Cedar Rapids

MAT Tumbling/Trampoline traveled east to Cedar Rapids to compete at an AAU/USTA sanctioned event. Trampoline and double mini trampoline events were Saturday and tumbling was Sunday. It was a great competition to refine techniques athletes have been working on. Improvements were seen from all the MAT athletes, with a few achieving their highest point total for the year so far. MAT came away with six overall high point winners at this meet. The MAT team is looking forward to three more competitions before the state meet April 18-19. The state meet serves as the only qualifier for the national championships later this summer. For more information, go to www.mattumblers.com.
