Last Home Weekend For GymDawgs Next
March 05, 2019 | Gymnastics
SEATTLE - The Washington GymDawgs finish their home season with two meets this weekend, hosting Sacramento State and Iowa on March 8 during International Women's Day, then facing off with Southern Utah in a dual meet on Senior and Alumni Day on March 10. This is the one and only two-meet weekend for the Dawgs all this season. Tickets are available online.
Washington enters this weekend fresh off a season-best performance at Boise State, where they earned a 196.750. Washington has improved its team score for five consecutive weeks now and is looking to record its first 197 of the season. The GymDawgs competed against both Sacramento State and Southern Utah last season, starting 2018 at Sacramento State and recording one of their four 197s at Southern Utah later in the season.
