Jacob has now finished his first season of competitive power tumbling. He loved it and he did great! He ended up with a ton of medals - mostly first and second place. He went to four meets. Two were in Emporia, KS (one of which was the OK/KS state meet), one in Neosho, MO and one here in Tulsa. Trampoline is still his favorite event and his strongest event. He continued to improve over the season in all 3 events - trampoline, tumbling and double mini. Even though the meets are over now they continue to practice year round. He practices 6 hours a week and may increase to 9 hours a week starting in August. The year round practicing is actually really good for him. It is a great release for his endless energy. I can't believe he is 10 years old now! In a little over a year he will officially be a middle schooler and will also move up into the youth group at church. That is crazy!
