TEMPE, Ariz. (www.thesundevils.com) -- The Pacific-10 Conference announced its All-Conference Women's Gymnastics team Friday. The conference takes the top six all-around competitors and the top three from each event. A combination of 50 percent of the regional qualifying score and 50 percent Pac-10 Championships score determine the gymnast's score.
Arizona State University senior Ashley Kelly (York, Pa.) earned All-Conference honors in three events including the all-around, bars and balance beam. The awards mark the third year in a row Kelly has earned All-Pac-10 accolades in the all-around and on balance beam. Kelly is ranked second nationally in the all-around and first on the balance beam. She has scored the only 10 in the country on the balance beam this season.
In 2004, Kelly won the national championship on balance beam becoming the ninth Sun Devil gymnast to win an individual national title and fourth on balance beam. In 2005, she earned a share of the Pac-10 title on balance beam for the second year in a row.
