Flyers soar at Summit meet / Tumbling and trampoline

Eleven Island Flyers from Oak Harbor’s Rise Academy of Arts trampoline and tumbling team finished first overall in their divisions at the Summit gymnastic meet in Maple Valley Saturday, Jan. 11.

In addition, two Flyers, Harmony Wertz and Catrina Ocanas, traveled to Arizona Jan. 3-6 and were some of the first USAG gymnasts to learn new quad routines for trampoline and tumbling. The duo is featured in videos that will be used to train athletes, coaches and judges around the United States.

“This was a very exciting opportunity and the two girls were absolutely amazing,” said Melody Reagan from Rise Academy.

Samantha Martinez set the pace for the Island Flyers in the Jan. 11 meet by taking first overall in three events: Level 3 trampoline, Level 4 double mini and Level 2 tumbling.

Others earning first overall were Arabelle Brys (Level 1 trampoline; Level 1 double mini), Ocanas (Level 7 trampoline), Wertz (Level 6 tumbling), Madison Walker (Level 6 tumbling), Sidney Louis (Level 4 tumbling), Hyley Farrell (Level 2 tumbling), Rebel Johnson (Level 1 double mini), Maesen Calhoun (Level 1 double mini), Lilyanna McFarland (Level 3 double mini) and Ana Froman (Level 4 tumbling).
