Bankes, a Bowmanstown, Pa. native, had a great meet Friday night which was highlighted by a 10.0 in the inversion pyramid, Glenville's first 10.0 since the 2019 season. Her execution in these events were a big factor in the success that came with the team win that improved Glenville State to (6-2, 5-1 MEC).
