Katie
Feenstra, 9,
and Alex Eversmeyer,
a senior in
physical education
and member of
the student
board for K-grams
(Kids Programs),
run in a three-legged
race at the
U-M women's
gymnastics meet
Jan. 31 against
Michigan State
University (right).
Children at
the Second Annual
K-grams Family
Night helped
to make the
crowd the fourth-largest
ever to attend
a women's gymnastics
meet at Crisler
Arena.
"Having all
the kids made
it a fun atmosphere," says
head coach Bev
Plocki. "It
really helped
give the team
an energy boost,
especially on
floor." That
boost helped
lead U-M to
victory, with

and Calli Ryals
finishing 1-2
in the all-around.
K-grams is a
mentoring and
learning program
that pairs college

school students. (Photos by Martin Vloet, U-M Photo Services) |
