College Bound
Gymnastics School Information
Dear
Gymnasts, Parents & Coaches,
Welcome to our second season of our "College Bound" information page.
This special page has been created to help out New York State High School Junior
and Senior Athletes nswer questions that they may have about College.
There is a
NCAA
link at bottom of page.
The moderators of this page are two past New York State USAG Gymnasts:
Lori Franklin and Nancy Akers.
Lori received a full athletic and academic merit scholarship
to The George Washington University and competed for their Women's NCAA Division
I Gymnastics Team from 1992 - 1996.
She was the Team Captain and selected as the
"Most Valuable
Player" in 1996. After graduation, Lori became the Graduate Assistant Coach
at The George
Washington University while attending the business school on a
full-scholarship.
Nancy also received a full athletic scholarship to The George
Washington University and competed for their gymnastics team from 1991-1995.
She was the Team Captain and selected "Most Valuable Player" in 1995.
In April 1999, Nancy received her Masters in Public Health from The George
Washington University and is now working as a Public Relations Administrator for Sigma-Tau Pharmaceuticals in Gaithersburg,
Maryland!
Lori & Nancy created this page so they can help the young ladies from their
home state answer any questions they may have about Colleges, Teams, Studies,
etc.
You
can e-mail your questions to Lori at:
lchaitman@motorola.com or Nancy at:
nancylane04@gmail.com
With Lori's and Nancy's excitement and extensive knowledge of collegiate programs this
page will be a
great source for our State's Gymnasts preparing for College. It is their hope to create an
Alumnae Listing of as many of our outstanding gymnasts who are now
in the "real world" and making their presence felt. Lori and Nancy
will be recruiting other alumnae to help those athletes preparing for college.
Stay tuned!
