ON BALANCE: Some Shoreline gymnastics (PICS)

Gymnastics, anyone? Not a lot of people are aware of the CIAC's vibrant gymnastics community, and Haddam-Killingworth, Hale-Ray and Old Saybrook have a co-op team. Valley Regional also competes as a team. Press Correspondent Todd Kalif stopped by Shoreline Gymnasium in Old Saybrook Wednesday to check out some action, and while there were a few who missed the meet because of injury, he caught Hale-Ray's Samantha Lemire and Old Saybrook's Olivia Pugliese in action.

Here's Lemire:

And here's some of Pugliese:
