It was an emotional moment for New Prague senior Ava Bruegger when she was announced as the Class 2A all-around champion at the gymnastics state meet in February.

Bruegger talked excitedly to media members after the meet, a smile stretched broadly across her face the entire time.

To be expected? Sure, but there was more behind Bruegger’s delighted demeanor. And now there’s more to her success. She’s the Star Tribune’s All-Minnesota Gymnast of the Year.
