FIRST HOME MEET FOR MINNESOTA MENS GYMNASTICS TO BE HELD THIS SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1st, 2025 AT CONCORDIA COLLEGE IN ST. PAUL
You will not want to miss the first home meet for the Gophers as they take on the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Kansas City Twisters in conjunction with the 29th Annual John Roethlisberger Iceberg Invitational.
Action will get underway at 5:20 pm on Saturday, February 1st, 2025 at the Gangelhoff Center on the campus of Concordia College, located at 235 Hamline Ave N, St Paul, MN 55104.
Admission will be $10 for adults and $5 for seniors, veterans, & students.
The Gophers are defending National Champions in the vibrant GymACT League and are currently ranked #1 in the country and have a winning streak of 22 straight meets dating back to January of 2024.
Iowa comes in ranked 5th in the national polls and is on a tear right now as they ramp up their A-Game. ‘Iowa had a strong showing last week at the Kansas City Invitational and they are definitely a team to be reckoned with,’ said head coach Mike Burns. Kansas City is a young team with a small but talented roster and they should be looking to place some individuals in the final meet standings.
This will be a modified capital cup format which means the teams will warmup each event and then compete as opposed to warming up all 6 events in a timed warmup schedule and then competing straight through.
Gopher legend John Roethlisberger will be on hand to watch all the action and cheer on all the athletes. As some of you may know, John is the President of Friends of Minnesota Mens Gymnastics and has been doing a great job as the leader of our non-profit organization. We are always accepting donations to keep the program moving forward and any amount helps. Donations can be sent in through our FMMG website: www.minnesotagymnastics.org
Be on the lookout for recaps on the Gopher’s most recent accomplishments at the Windy City and the Kansas City invitational meets.
SPOILER ALERT - Minnesota came out on top on both meets!!
Hope to see you at the Gangelhoff Center on Saturday night at 5:20 pm!!!
