In the second breaking story that this blog has brought you, the Boise State gymnastics team scored a season high tonight in ripping Utah State in Logan tonight. The Broncos scored 196.250 to beat their previous high of 196.175 and defeated their opponents by over 2.5 points. Only 11 teams in the country have posted higher totals than Boise State did tonight. USU finished with 193.600.
Boise State had a shot at a 194.450 score (which would have been the nation's 10th-best this season), but Amy Glass, who earlier this week took over the #1 spot in the nation, scored 9.375 on the beam. Glass needed a 9.9 to give Boise State the 194.45 but it was not to be. That is the second individual score under 9.50 tonight. Still, Boise State so far has the 7th best score in the country this weekend.
Hannah Redmon was brilliant tonight in leading the Broncos to the win. Redmon paced the team in the vault (9.925), bars (9.850) and floor (9.875) and won the vault and floor events. Hailey Gaspar was also fantastic with a 9.875 on vault, a 9.825 on floor and a 9.7 on the beam. Kelsey Lang was another star, contributing a 9.850 on beam and a 9.775 in floor exercises. Bekah Gher scored a 9.825 on beam and a 9.750 on the bars. Glass won the all-around competition with a 38.925, getting a 9.875 on vault, a 9.850 on floor and a 9.825 on bars.
