ASHLAND – Emma Haugen won the floor exercise and vault for Marshfield, which lost a Great Northern Conference dual meet to Ashland 136.35-130.75 on Monday night at Ashland High School.

Haugen won the floor with a score of 9.35 and the vault with a score of 8.65 on her way to a third-place finish in the all-around (33.575). She also tied for third in the uneven bars (8.15).

Brooke McGrath tied for third in the floor (9.05) and Melanie Hafenbredl was third in the vault (8.45) as well for the Tigers.

Marshfield is off until Jan. 18 when it hosts Wisconsin Rapids.

“We really had an excellent vault and floor and did come out on top on those events,” Marshfield coach Allie Dryer said. “Unfortunately our beam was really rough tonight and none of the girls were able to stay on the beam. That really hurt our team score, costing us over five points.

“We have three a few athletes out right now with injuries, and are looking forward to having our full team back soon. In the meantime, I have been impressed with several freshman making their varsity debuts.”
