1998 is here and on the way! A good morning welcome to the season has come swiftly to the UIC Men’s Gymmnastics team. Second year sophomores have become veterans in a very short time. Jody Liebler of Highland Beach, FL., Greg Gabel of Columbus, OH., Toby vanAmerongen of Seattle, WA and Justin Joyce of Boac Raton, Fl will make up of 66% of UIC’s scores this year. A great addition to this year's core is transfer Michcael Bush of Northbrook. A two time letter winner at Army will give needed depth to the UIC line up! Growing up fast as each member has grown up and have taken to the challenge to be even better this season. Our goal in mind is to be a surprise at the Eastern Regional again this.
The Windy City will be a great start to the 1998 Colegeiate season. The powerful Ohio State Buckeye's look for their forth consecutive Championship. But both Iowa and Illinois have different feelings about that! Each hopes to put OSU behind them, not only in the WCI, but in the Big 10 as well!
