The Prince George Gymnastics Club competed in two events this past weekend (Feb. 15 - 17) in the Lower Mainland, obtaining multiple medals in the process.
While at the Christy Fraser Memorial meet in Langley, 14-year-old Ella Petrovicky, who, in her first appearance in a Group ‘A’ competition for her age group, took home a gold and bronze medal.
She ascended to the top of the podium all-around, while also completing a strong vaulting performance for third place.
The daughter of former Prince George Cougar Ronald Petrovicky was also recognized by the tournament committee for her passion and sportsmanship and was honoured with the Christy Fraser Award.
The invitational and award Petrovicky received were named after Christy Fraser, who died at the age of 12 in 1992 after contracting E. Coli.
