Morgan State Acrobatics and Tumbling Team Prepares for Home Meet
This Sunday at 2 p.m., the Morgan State acrobatics and tumbling team will host Francis Marion University at Hill Field House. The team is riding high after achieving their first win of the season last week against Long Island University, with a score of 234.925 to 229.115.
The victory was a significant boost for the Lady Bears. They showcased their skills in tumbling and team events, a great sign of progress early in the season. This win was especially meaningful for first-year head coach Agina Simpkins, as it marked her first victory at Morgan State.
Before this win, the team faced tough competition, losing their initial two home matches. However, the match against Long Island allowed them to demonstrate their growth and confidence.
Francis Marion will also be looking for their first win this season. They come into the meet with an 0-3 record after falling to King University on February 26. This matchup promises to be intense as both teams seek to improve their standings.
In modern sports, home-field advantage can be crucial. According to recent data from a survey by the Sports Research Institute, home teams win approximately 60% of their games across various sports. The Lady Bears will certainly hope to capitalize on their home crowd’s energy this Sunday.
