Riley Wins Bars But Washington Nipped By Utah
February 03, 2018 | Gymnastics
SALT LAKE CITY – The #15 Washington GymDawgs had an impressive road performance but fell to the #3 Utah Utes Saturday, 197.700-196.250 . Monica Riley's bars routine earned the highest individual score of any GymDawg, winning the event title with a score of 9.9. Hailey Burleson recorded a 39.350 in the all-around thanks in part to scores of 9.875 on floor and 9.850 on bars and beam.
"There were a lot of great things about our meet," said head coach Elise Ray-Statz. "Malory Rose being up in the beam lineup, Hailey Burleson earning a season-best all-around score, Monica Riley earning a career best on bars... but as an entire team we need to get better and elevate our performance in competition. I'm excited to get back in the gym and work towards that."
Joslyn Goings also had her highest score of the season, coming on beam. The senior earned a score of 9.850, adding to the growing number of 9.850 scores achieved on beam this season. Evanni Roberson scored a 9.850 on floor and earned a 39.125 in the all-around.
