The Daily Collegian
Sophomores try to prove abilities in competition
By Dan Norton
FOR THE COLLEGIAN
Penn State’s men’s gymnastics team is
built on youth this year, but that doesn’t
mean it lacks experience.
Last season, coach Randy Jepson
brought in one of the largest freshman
classes in recent memory. Eight gymnasts
competed at the collegiate level for the first
time, often negatively impacting Penn State
on the score sheet.
“Last year we kind of crumbled as soon
as one person started to fall apart,” senior
captain Matt Albrecht said.
In 2010, the Nittany Lions underachieved
by their usual high standards, posting a 2-5
record in meets against one opponent.
Three of their losses came to prominent
Big Ten rivals Ohio State, Illinois and
Michigan. Flirthermore, they placed third
in the Big Ten championships and fourth in
the NCAA qualifiers, failing to qualify for
Nationals as a team for the second consec
utive year.
But despite its mediocre season, Penn
State had a lot to look forward to, with three

times as many underclassmen as upper
classmen.
Fbr freshmen entering NCAA training
and competition fbr the first time, they
must adapt to a completely different
approach in training and competition,
Albrecht said.
Many high schools do not fund a gymnas
tics program, so up until graduation, gym
nastics is an individual sport. Gymnasts
compete in the junior national program for
themselves.
“College gymnastics is a whole different
game,” Albrecht said. "You're doing it for
the team.”
So while Penn State’s freshmen compet
ed and adapted, other schools favored
upperclassmen in their lineups, boding well
for the Nittany Lions in the future.
And that future may be as soon as this
upcoming season.
Jepson holds high expectations for his
sophomores in 2010-11, knowing full well
their performance could make or break the
Nittany Lions' season.
“This year, they’re thrown into the fire,”
he said. “They've made big improvements,

but they still have to prove themselves on
the competitive floor.”
Sophomore Felix Aronovich was one of
the best overall gymnasts for Penn State
last year as a freshman. He had team-highs
in the pommel horse, the parallel bars, and
the all-around.
Sophomore Tony Beck followed
Aronovich closely in the pommel horse,
posting the team’s third best score. Beck
has spent a lot of time on the horse during
practice, seeking to improve upon the
team’s numbers from last season.
“A lot of people didn’t have a lot of confi
dence [on the horse] last year,” he said. “A
lot of guys are really stepping up and show
ing they are ready to go this year.”
Beck added his elbow is bothering him,
but he’s hitting his routines in practice and
is ready to go.
Including Aronovich and Beck, all eight
of last year’s freshmen are set to return
this season with 12 events already under
their belts. Jepson is looking for them to be
big contributors this season with only five
juniors and seniors on the roster compared
to 16 freshmen and sophomores.
