Olsen will be looked upon by the younger girls for leadership guidance on the floor and in the locker room. Harmon- ing’s teams have always done well and sometimes exceeded expectations. “We are expecting a lot from ourselves since last year we won the sections,” said Harmoning. “All three of the top teams in sections had big mistakes — us in- cluded — but we hope to do better, return to state and medal.” After several years of practicing and competing in the cramp gymnastics room by the fieldhouse, the team deservedly opened their new facility last year and were pleased with the new space. “We are super excited about our sprawling gym,” said Harmoning. “We just love it. “We still have some things we need to iron out and try to improve but that all takes money so we just have to be patient. Harmoning said AD Dave Niemi has been a huge supporter of the team and has worked really hard to accommodate the team’s requests to make the facil- ity even better. “He has worked hard for us to make this place better and improve this for us,” said Harmoning of Niemi. “Little-by-little things are getting better.” Harmoning’s coaching strategy over the years is to concentrate on her team and how they perform and don’t pay attention to what the other teams are doing come competition. “In coaching gymnas- tics, there really isn’t any defense,” she said. “You have what you have and you try and make the best of what you have.” Harmoning says though gymnastics features athletes with incredible tal- ent, strength and coordina- tion — the sport is mostly about mental toughness. “The mental part of this sport is huge,” she said. “It’s very demanding and the mind can either bring your skills to another level or make the routine you are about to perform a night- mare. These are teenagers so getting them to focus on one thing is quite a chal- lenge.” The coach says another difficult part of gymnastics is the limited time she and her staff get to work with the girls before their first competitions. “We can’t work with them during the off-season but they can work out on their own,” she said. “Then we only have a couple of weeks of practice before the girls have to go. Condi- tioning is key at the begin- ning.” Harmoning says that is the reason most gymnastic programs don’t start off too well in the month of De- cember because most of the girls are working on getting their bodies strong enough to do all their routines. “My job is to push them to get better, but with patience,” she said. Over the years, the bat- tle in section play has usu- ally come down to either Becker or Big Lake — and it’ll probably be much of the same this year as both teams vie for that coveted trip to state. The Section 7A tourna- ment is in Sauk Rapids this year on Sat., Feb. 13 at noon. The gymnasts first hit the floor for the regular sea- son today (Saturday) at home in the Becker Clinic Invitational. They will be competing against teams from Farmington, Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted, Melrose Area, Saint Michael-Albertville, Sauk Rapids - Rice, Willmar and North Branch. GYM from page 17
