required figures, two optional
figures and their regular
routine, Aquatians’ Club Presi
dent Cheryl Stuart said.
The five team members were
chosen for the national event on
the basis of their individual
scores at a meet with the Univer
sity of Texas.
The club practices about once
a week and is open to anyone.
Since the sport is relatively
new to collegiate athletics, many
universities do not have teams.
The team only competes with
UT, so it spends much of the rest
of its time organizing clinics with
other universities.
The next scheduled clinic is
with the University of Arizona,
which won second place overall
in the national competition.
