ASU GYMNASTS WIN 11th NATIONAL TITLE

3 Claim All American Status- 1 National Champion

Williamsburg, VA, March 27, 2009- The ASU Men’s Gymnastics Team captured its 11th Team title today in the 2009 USA Gymnastics Collegiate National Championships held on the campus of William & Mary. Nine men’s teams qualified for the championship meet- 5 Varsity (NCAA) and 4 Collegiate (Non-funded) teams. Team titles and All Around were awarded separately for both divisions. ASU won the Collegiate division with a solid score of 320.35. ASU was led by All-Arounder, freshman Alex Gaudaur (CA) who finished 1st in the All Around while qualifying to the individual finals on 3 events: Floor Exercise, Still Rings and Vaulting.

“We had a slow start on High Bar and Pommels,” said ASU head coach Scott Barclay. “The pressure of a big meet hit our young team at first but they came back and kept their heads up and that’s exactly what we needed”, said Barclay. “The whole team pulled together and finished the year off on a good note. We didn’t hit as well as we could have,” said Assist coach, Daniel Hayden, “but we worked hard all year preparing for this meet and we went after it with heart.”

Sophomore Josh Bradley (Nebraska) showed his competitive drive by qualifying for the event finals on Rings and Vault. Bradley suffered a bad sprained ankle last week and was questionable going into the competition tonight.

Freshman Riley Barclay (Chandler) came through for the team as he qualified on both Floor and Pommel Horse. Barclay also earned All America status taking 5th place in the All Around. Tomorrow at 5:00pm is the Individual Event Finals with the top 8 individuals on each event qualifying in from today’s meet.  ASU qualified individuals on 5 events for tomorrow’s finals.

Senior Charles Baysinger ended his college career earning All American status again in the All around finishing in 6th place.
