With an All Around score of 37.575, Megan came in first place and is the All Around State Champion for her age level.
            Megan began taking gymnastics in the Fall of 2010 at the age of 3 at Leaps and Bounds for about a year. In August of 2014, she started taking gymnastics at CG ’s Gymnastics and was coached by Susan Naquin. Roy Ulrich became her coach in January of 2015. At the end of the season, Megan decided she wanted to start competing. She tried out and joined the Pre-Team in June of 2015. Even though she was on Pre-Team, she competed as a Level 1 gymnast at the State Meet. In June, Megan will be moving up to Level 3. She is the daughter of John and Kristi Murray and is a third grade student at Amite Christian Academy. Congratulations Megan!
