Written by

Norman: OU, Utah Advance

Written by

Oklahoma won with a 197.35 and Utah stayed calm on the last event with a 196.475 to overtake UW.  While OU hit every event, UW hit VT and FX to set up a huge UB rotation to take the lead over Utah.  But, nerves and excitement led to some early falls that deflated the team's momentum.  Utah started strongly on UB and then faced an equipment malfunction, which delayed the completion of their UB set.  Unfazed, they avoide mishaps to advance.  UNC's Morgan Evans and UW's Aliza Vaccher advanced as the top two AAers. 

1.  OU 197.35
2.  Utah 196.475
3.  UW 195.3
4.  UNC 195.225
5.  UNH 194.5
6.  Missouri 194.175
