A Solon Salute goes out to the girls' gymnastic team who placed 6th in the state with a score of 104! What an unbelievable display of athleticism and heart they put on. The team says goodbye to their lone senior, Jenna Krussman, but will have the majority of the team back next year. Great season, Solons!
