USAF ACADEMY, Colo. -- A young Air Force men's gymnastics team opened the season with a fourth-place finish at the Rocky Mountain Open on Friday, Jan. 14. In the annual RMO event, hosted by the Falcons, Air Force totaled a team score of 184.700 to earn the fourth-place score.
Top-ranked Oklahoma won the event with a team score of 215.425, while Nebraska finished second with a score of 206.625. Arizona State claimed third (193.325), while Washington (184.625) and four members from the Olympic Training Center (119.300) finished fifth and sixth, respectively, behind Air Force.
The top finishers from tonight's events will compete tomorrow afternoon (Jan. 14) and three members of the Falcons' team made the cut. Senior co-captain Kent Reichle (Cambridge, Minn.) tied for 11th on the floor exercise with a score of 8.550, while sophomore Kurt Antonio (Rio Rancho, N.M.) finished in a tie for 12th on the parallel bars with a score of 8.100. Freshman Tyler Sickles (Mesa, Ariz.) earned a spot in the high bar finals, following a strong 8.350 on the apparatus in his collegiate debut.
Antonio also recorded the team's best marks on the pommel horse (6.550) and still rings (7.700). Classmate Edwin Berry (El Cajon, Calif.) tied with Antonio on the pommel horse (6.550) and posted the Falcons' best vault score with an 8.600. One of just two Falcons competing in the all-around, Antonio finished 10th with a combined score of 45.950. Junior Eric Peele (Bethel, N.C.) placed 12th in the all-around with a score of 44.450.
Reichle, Antonio and Sickles return to action tomorrow in the event finals of the Rocky Mountain Open, which are scheduled to begin at 1:00 p.m., in the Cadet West Gym.
