Trip To The Bay On Deck For Washington

SEATTLE - The Washington GymDawgs head to the bay this weekend after earning four more event titles in their home opener last weekend. Washington has won at least three event titles in back-to-back meets now, with Evanni Roberson, Madison Copiak, and Geneva Thompson having all recorded multiple wins already.

Washington has earned the vault titles in back-to-back meets now, with Thompson winning outright against Oregon State after tying for the title with Copiak at Arizona. The GymDawgs also earned individual event titles on bars, floor, and all-around against Oregon State, with Roberson winning all three of those events. Kristyn Hoffa and Maya Washington each had scores of 9.875 on floor against Oregon State, finishing just behind Roberson.

This weekend will be the first trip to Stanford for Washington since 2017. The two teams met in Seattle last season, with Washington earning the win with a 196.475.
