Gymnastics: Nassau County Team Championship Results

Nine-time champ Bethpage/Plainview had a strong showing at the team championships but couldn't claw past a clearly pumped Oceanside squad. Those results and more:

1. Oceanside - 168.025

Erin Senior's 9.0 on vault secured the come from behind victory over Massapequa. She got an 8.9 on bars, an 8.15 on beam and a 9.25 on floor - good enough for second in the all-around with a 35.3. Paige McCarthy came up big as well, with a 34.175.

2. Bethpage/Plainvew - 165.95

Bethpage found itself in a strange new world going into the fourth and final event last Tuesday: third place. They had three points to make up going into floor and fell just short. Danielle Sadick was up to form and led them with a 33.725 in the all-around and got a team-high 9.0 on beam.

3. Massapequa - 165.45

Make no mistake, Massapequa had everyone sweating going into the final event. The team, led by Mike Capone and filled solid with non-club gymnasts, was on the verge of pulling off a big upset. But the bars, pretty much the hardest event to master, proved to be its undoing. The team scored a highly respectable 38.725 but it wasn't enough to neutralize Bethpage's high scores on floor and Oceanside's on vault.

4. Sewanhaka - 157.95

Brittany Trumpy and Maria Doddo were on fire for Sewanhaka. Trumpy led the team all around with a 34.9 and a 9.3 on floor while Doddo got the night's highest score on beam (9.3).

5. Hicksville - 150.1

How much is Hicksville going to miss Danielle Cecco when she graduates later this year? Cecco was the night's highest scorer on the all-around. She earned a 35.55 with a 9.0 on beam and a 9.35 on floor. Allison Osmundsen was right behind with a 34.65.

6. Carle Place - 144.65

Stephanie Madey led Carle Place with a 32.15 in the all-around and an 8.6 on beam.

7. Wantagh - 143.952

Seventh-grader Brianna Quinn in an amazing little gymnast. She clocks in at about four feet (give or take a few inches) and consistently leads her team in competition. Tuesday was no different as Quinn led her team in every event, including a 32.825 overall and an 8.65 in beam. She's only 12, folks. Keep an eye out on this one.

8. South Side - 138.075

Emily Meoli led South Side with a 29.65 and a 8.15 in vault. Emily Considine had an 8.25 on floor.
