An exceptional display of fresh talent in the gymnastics bar left the crowd with a blazing sight at Boise State’s ExtraMile Arena. The women’s Air Force team has kicked off the 2024 season with one of the most anticipated victories. They left the ground with an incredible mark, coveting the highest-ever season opener score of 194.975.

Despite the previous setback at San Jose State, the newcomer, Clara Wallace, grabbed the third spot in the all-around with a score of 38.750. Her head coach took the opportunity to showcase her appreciation for her. She emerged as the leading charge with 9.850 and stood sixth, surpassing the Falcons’ 2023 individual scores with a razor-thin margin of 0.025.

A rattling performance brought the gymnastic star to the center

The head coach, Jennifer Green, couldn’t help but praise Wallace’s performance. Green highlighted her calm demeanor and consistency: “Clara’s demeanor never changes—she is very consistent and even-keeled. She’s calm; she doesn’t get rattled. “ With that, she said, “We changed things up in several of her routines and she hasn’t missed a beat. I believe Clara’s potential is unlimited.”

She also chimed, “Our freshmen were rockstars. Starting their careers in an unfamiliar setting and hitting every event they were in is a big deal.” Vaulting into the action-packed performance, the Falcons clinched a stellar 48.925, with Maggie Slife scoring 9.800 and capturing fourth place at the event. Coach Green expressed that the team showcased the choreography in a manner in which gymnastics became fun and easy for them. She said, “I love when their personalities come out!”

On being asked about the current roaster’s injury, she said that the lineup has been changed so that they can rest. The rest of the team, on the other hand, is working more efficiently so that the missing spot doesn’t affect their performance. She said, “When we are all 100%, we will definitely turn heads.”

In defeat, a beacon

The head coach firmly asked her fans to show support during their hard times by saying, “Can’t wait for this team to feel the energy and pride from our fans. Please come out and show them your support! Being on the road for three weeks is hard.”
