BROCKPORT, N.Y. (Feb. 8, 2014) – The William and Mary men's gymnastics team won a tri-meet hosted by Brockport on Sunday afternoon, as the Tribe (412.45) defeated the University of Illinois at Chicago (401.35) and the host Golden Eagles (220.45).

In addition to setting a team season high on vault, W&M swept all six individual event titles. Senior Landon Funiciello claimed three events (rings, vault, parallel bars), while sophomore Neal Courter won two (floor, high bar) and junior Jason Wang earned one (pommel horse).

The College opened the meet on pommel horse and posted a team total of 68.3. Wang recorded the winning score of 14.8, while junior Peter Ten Eyck placed second by equaling a career-high 14.4.

The Tribe then moved to rings and was led by Funiciello's winning mark of 15.7. Junior J.J. Jindra placed second with a 13.9 to help the squad record a 67.65.

Courter won his second event of the afternoon by equaling a season-high on high bar (14.1). The College registered a team total of 65.3 in the event.

The Tribe closed out the meet on vault and posted a season-high 70.45. Funiciello led the way with his third event title of the afternoon by recording a season-best 14.6, while junior Michael Deitz and Jindra posted a 14.2 and a 14.0, respectively.
