TOP QUOTE
"We stumbled a bit in the Acro Event today and lost around a point in that event. We are going to make some adjustments in that event before the meet tomorrow. Our heat two Toss scored well today, but we have some room for improvement in the heat 1 and heat 3 Toss," head coach Felecia Mulkey said. "The Team Routine scored well, but like I have said all season, we have yet to peak. We are excited to see what we can do tomorrow morning and hopefully advance for a shot at the national title."
