Paige Harnick, an eighth-grader at Roslyn Middle School and a competitive gymnast since age seven, has qualified to compete at the Junior Olympic Level 10 National Championship in Orlando, FL on May 17.

Trained at Gymnastique in Syosset, this was Paige's first year competing at the highest level of athletic gymnastics. Competing at States and then at Regionals, she is one of only seven 10-13-year-olds who qualified to represent Region 6 at Nationals.

Region 6 comprises the seven Northeast states. Her best event is balance beam where her strength and style earn her consistently high marks.
