PROVIDENCE, R.I. – For the second time this season, Brown senior Mei Li Costa has been awarded the GEC's Performance of the Week, the league announced on Wednesday.
At this weekend's Ivy Classic, Costa was co-champion on bars, defending her Ivy title from the 2020 meet. She earned First Team All-Ivy accolades by finishing first on bars (9.900) and second on vault (9.800), giving her seven All-Ivy honors in her career. Her bars title is also her fourth league championship, previously having won on vault in 2019, and vault and bars in 2020. Her performances helped Brown post season-high scores on both vault (48.675) and bars (48.975), narrowly missing out on the program's vault record.
Brown gymnasts have now won four weekly awards form the GEC this season: Taylor Schulze (Newcomer: 2/23), Julia Bedell (Newcomer: 2/9), and Costa (Performance: 2/9 and 3/2).
The Bears will compete in two meets this week starting on Friday at Rutgers for a quad meet with the Scarlet Knights, NC State and Southern Connecticut State, then at home on Sunday when Brown will host a dual meet against Bridgeport.
