Hannah Miles and Tessa Ferreira represented Cheek’s Gymnastics at the level 5 state competition in Clearwater recently.
Level 5 USA Gymnastics requires the gymnast to score at least a combined score of 32.50 in a qualifying meet during the season. Level 5 proved to be quite a challenge for the girls, but both gymnasts improved greatly throughout the season qualifying at least twice.
On Dec. 2, 2007, Tom and Chris Cheek traveled with Miles and Ferreira to Long’s Gymnasium in Clearwater to compete with the best of the level 5 gymnasts in the state.
Miles, 15, placed 11th all around in her age division with a combined score of 33.700.
Ferreira, 9, placed 11th all around in her age division with a combined score of 34.125.
Miles’ individual scores were: 8.600 floor; 8.925 vault; 7.725 bars; and 8.450 balance beam. This was Miles’ first year competing with Cheek’s, although she competed with Bard Gymnastics of Lake City several years ago.
Ferreira’s individual scores were: 8.675 floor; 8.825 vault; 8.425 bars; and 8.200 balance beam. Ferreira has been with Cheek’s Gymnastics for five years now. She competed for the first time last year at level 3.
