Bulldogs Push Through Adversity at Western Michigan Tri-Meet
KALAMAZOO, MI. - The Bulldogs faced a challenging competition at Western Michigan University, completing their fourth meet in just nine days. Despite the demanding schedule and setbacks, the team showed perseverance and determination. Though the Lady Bulldogs finished in third place out of three teams, they managed to deliver some highlight moments, even as injuries left them competing with only five athletes on bars.
Beam Stands Out
The Balance Beam was the highest-scoring event for Fisk, earning a solid 48.25, the team's highest beam score of the season. Liberty Mora, Aliyah Reed-Hammon, and Ciniah Rosby all contributed strong scores of 9.725, highlighting the team's consistency and poise on the apparatus.
Vault Highlights
Both Allie Berkley and Reed-Hammon had standout performances on vault, sticking their routines with scores of 9.775 and 9.675, respectively. Senior Jada Reese made her collegiate vault debut with an impressive front handspring front tuck, scoring a 9.55—a huge milestone in her final season.
Fighting Through on Bars
Despite having only five athletes compete on the Uneven Bars due to injuries, the Bulldogs fought hard to deliver solid routines. Morgan Price led the way with an outstanding 9.850, marking her highest score of the day and showcasing her exceptional execution under pressure.
Fisk will now take some much-needed rest and recovery as they prepare for their next competition at the Lindsey Ferris Invitational in Washington, D.C. The meet will take place on Sunday, January 26th at the Charles E. Smith Center at 1:00 PM EST. The quad meet will feature George Washington University (Colonials), Yale University (Bulldogs), and the University of Pennsylvania (Quakers).
