Polenz competed for World Cup Gymnastics in the level five competition. He took home the first place win by earning the highest score on high bar, second highest on rings, and fourth on floor and pommel horse. 

Polenz is no stranger to the podium, earning the title of top level four gymnast at the 2013 New York State Championships last March.  He is looking forward to defending his title this March in Binghamton. 

"I am lucky to coach a boy with so much potential," said coach Bob Kayser. 

"He sets himself apart from other competitors by being adept at all 6 of the men's gymnastics events. Being so strong at his young age gives him a clear advantage.  I am proud of his accomplishments and hope to coach him for years to come."
