THORNTON — The final few weeks of the season may not have been kind to the Chatfield gymnastics team, but at the 5A state competition at Thornton High School on Thursday, the remaining uninjured gymnasts put together a performance worthy of ninth place in the team category.
Leading up to regionals, Chatfield lost two of its top varsity girls in sophomore Morgan Walters, who dislocated her elbow, and junior Megan Kramer, who sprained her ankle.
That meant the Chargers had to compete without them at state.
