Danvers sophomore Kaylee Wescott vaults to state individual gymnastics title with beaming performance
Danvers sophomore Kaylee Wescott tumbles to gold in her floor routine Monday at Tewksbury High. Brett Phelps for The Boston Globe Just off the podium in 2024, Wescott dominated this year, capturing three event titles. Her Yurchenko layout vault earned her the day's highest score across all events, a 9.75. Her form and confidence earned her a 9.55 on balance beam, and her difficult tumbling saw her lead the way on floor exercise with a 9.675. Advertisement 'Today vault went best,' said Wescott. 'Usually it's floor, but today it was vault.' Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Newton South's Hirst has been one of the revelations of the season. Coming in as the fifth seed, she took second on the uneven bars with a 9.275, and fifth on vault with a 9.475 after hitting her Tsukahara pike. 'I'm glad that my hard work all season paid off,' said the Lions senior. Newton South's Amelie Hirst performs on the balance beam at Monday's State Coaches gymnastics individual championship at Tewksbury High. Brett Phelps for The Boston Globe Despite her success this season, Hirst's team did not make sectionals, but she was hopeful that her performance Monday would earn her a berth at March's New England championships. Moran's third place was not only exciting for the sophomore, but also for the Beverly program. It marked the best finish for a Panthers gymnast at the State Individual meet since 2015. Moran showed consistency and focus throughout the day, especially in hitting her double back as her opening pass on floor. 'It feels amazing,' said Moran, was eighth at this meet last year. 'I have to thank all of my teammates and all of my coaches for their support. I couldn't have done it without them.' Wilmington/Bedford's Lexie Masters took fourth place (36.85), while King Philip's Abby Lefebvre (36.75) rounded out the top five in the all-around. Acton-Boxborough's Hanne Ridley emerged the victor on a tough day on uneven bars, winning the apparatus with a 9.35. She finished 10th overall (36.4).
