SEATTLE – The Washington GymDawgs earned a quad-meet win in their final meet before the Pac-12 Championships, putting up a season-best 196.975 against UC Davis, Illinois, and Yale. Washington earned its highest bars score since 2004 with a 49.575, the second time this year the GymDawgs have put up bars scores that have not been bested since 2004.

"This team is showing such grit and determination right, I am so proud of them," said Elise Ray-Statz. "Through so much adversity, they're continuing to improve in competition and that's a testament to who they are. We did our job and now we wait to see how the chips fall for Pac-12 placement."

Washington's 49.325 was also impressive, coming in as the second-highest team beam score of the season. The GymDawgs earned scores of 49.000 or higher in every event, the second time in the last three meets Washington has reached that mark.

Madison Copiak recorded a score of 9.975 on bars, narrowly missing a perfect 10 and putting up the best bars score by any individual GymDawg since 2004. That was one of eight scores of 9.900 or higher in the meet, including all five counting scores on bars.
