EMU Athletics will recognize and share stories of the Class of 2020
YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – Leader and co-captain of the 2020 Eastern Michigan University gymnastics team, Emili Dobronics (Orland Park, Ill.-Carl Sandburg) says goodbye to her time in the Green and White.
"I feel extremely grateful that I was able to represent EMU for 4 years," said Dobronics. "I chose Eastern because I automatically felt connected to the team atmosphere. I had so much fun being a student-athlete at EMU. EMU gave me so many great memories and I truly believe I would not have had a better experience anywhere else. I am proud to have been able to wear and represent the block E."
Dobronics, having competed in 46 meets for Eastern, earned 50 podium finishes, including 19 first-place finishes. The senior was a 2017 MAC Champion, a three-time NCAA Regional qualifier (two individual, one team), three time Academic All-MAC honoree, a two time All-MAC Second Team recipient, a 2018 Distinguished Scholar Athlete, and became the Green and White's first MAC Floor Champion in 17 years in 2019.
The Orland Park, Ill. native has scored 9.800-or-better 46 times, including earning 9.900 five times on floor. Closing out her career, Dobronics will be remembered not only for her scores and dedication to the program, but for her leadership and passion. Thank you, Emili for everything you have given Eastern Michigan.
Dobronics will graduate with a degree in pre-dentistry.
