Team: Islands YMCA
School: Marshpoint Elementary
On the weekend of July 30, 2017, over 1700 gymnasts from 21 states invaded the Savannah International Trade & Convention Center for the 2017 YMCA National Gymnastics Meet. The Islands YMCA Gymnastics team won 130 medals. One of the biggest winners at the 2017 championship was nine-year-old Level 2 gymnast Kylee Jiran.
Kylee came in first in Level 2 all-around. It was her initial time ever competing at nationals. Level 2 in gymnastics is an advanced beginner level using four events. The gymnast must successfully complete level 1 to go to next level with a minimum age of 6. What is impressive about Kylee, she has only been involved in gymnastics for one year.
Kylee took first place on the parallel bars (9.60), on the balance beam (9.80), third in the floor exercise (9.50), and nineteenth on the vault (9.25). The combination of the her four scores totaled 38.150 was tops and e
nough for Kylee to claim the 2017 YMCA National YMCA Level 2 Gold Medal. Congratulations Kylee on a great job.
