Mayle Named MAC Co-Gymnast of the Week

Junior gymnast Carrie Mayle (Fremont, Ohio/St. Josephs) was selected the Mid-American Conference (MAC) Co-Gymnast of the Week for the second straight week Monday (Feb. 21). Mayle shares the honor with Central Michigan Universitys Sara Burtinsky.

Mayle helped Kent State split a pair of meets and won her third all-around title this past weekend. In KSUs loss to Central Michigan Feb. 18, Mayle placed second on vault (9.825) and finished third on the all-around (38.925). During the Flashes win over SE Missouri State Feb. 20, Mayle won vault (9.800) and the all-around (38.975) for her third title in as many weeks.

This is the third consecutive week that a Kent State gymnast has received a MAC weekly honor. Last week, Mayle and senior Erika Linnersten (Cincinnati, Ohio/Finneytown) were named MAC Gymnast and Co-Specialist of the Week, respectively while freshman Kristin Peters (Maineville, Ohio/Kings) earned MAC Specialist of the Week honors Feb. 7.

The Golden Flashes (6-2, 3-1 MAC) are next in action this Sunday (Feb. 27) to battle league foe Northern Illinois University at 2 p.m. CT.
