Collins named Gymnast of the Week, Tighe Rookie of the Week
PHILADELPHIA – Announced by the EIGL today, Temple men's gymnast junior Blake Collins has been named Gymnast of the Week, and freshman Alex Tighe earned Rookie of the Week honors, for the week ending March 29.
Collins placed second in the all-around (82.75) as Temple (336.2) edged William & Mary (334.75) in Williamsburg. He sat out his freshman year as a redshirt when he could not make the squad and is in his first year working the all-around for the Owls. He also placed first on rings with a score of 14.25.
Tighe worked four events, counting on three, as the Owls closed out their regular season with a win over William & Mary. A 14.60 score on horizontal bar was good enough for first place. This is the first such collegiate honor for the Brookfield, Wis. native.
Temple travels back to Williamsburg, Va. for the ECAC Championships, beginning April 2 at 6:00 p.m., with day two action starting April 3 at 2:00 p.m.
