Schultz (’72), with the last gymnast unidentified at this time. During the 1969-1970 season, the team went 7-0. That year, Lucy Miller won All-American for the beam and Patti Corrigan won All-American for the vault, beam, bars, and all-around. Coach Mimi Murray led the women’s gymnastics team to an undefeated 37-0 record for all six seasons she coached. Tom Colton was an anchor at WWLP, the NBC-affiliated television station for the Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts. The station’s call letters are the founder’s initials: William Lowell Putnam.
