Three GW gymnasts won or earned a share of an individual title on Sunday.

Freshman Jillian Winstanley won the all-around title with a score of 9.875 and freshman Cami Drouin-Allaire won the vault championship with a score of 9.95. The duo are the only two gymnasts in program history to earn an outright event title at an EAGL Championship.
