Kenney Tabbed GEC Gymnast of the Week for Third Time
Registered a season-best all-around score (39.075) in win over LIU.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn. – For the second time this year and third in her career, junior Abby Kenney of the University of Bridgeport's gymnastics team has been named the GEC's Gymnast of the Week.
In a season filled with clutch performances thus far, Kenney was especially superb last Friday night in a dual meet win over Long Island University. The junior from New Jersey won three separate events en route to her highest all-around score (39.075) of the season. Kenney's top mark came on floor courtesy of a 9.800. Impressively, she has now reached or eclipsed that score in three meets this year.
Kenney also earned top honors versus LIU on vault (9.775 – season high) and bars (9.725) while placing second on beam (9.775).
The entire UB gymnastics team will return to action this Sunday in a quad meet at Ursinus College (1 p.m.).
