With no senior members from the class 2019 lost to graduation, the defending state champion gymnastics team looked poised to bring home another title. In its one and only regular season meet of 2020, the team posted an impressive second-place finish with an incomplete roster. The remainder of the season was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
