SACRAMENTO REGION, CA (MPG) - The Sacramento State gymnastics team followed up its season-high score against Eastern Michigan on March 9 by raising the bar once again on March 14 at The Nest, scoring a new season-best 195.250 in the regular season finale against UC Davis.
The Aggies, however, won the team title with a score of 195.800.
Following the meet against the Aggies, the Hornets celebrated their seniors.
The March 14 meet against UC Davis marked the third time in the last five meets that the Hornets topped the 195-point plateau, besting its previous season-high of 195.225 against the Eagles on March 9 and joined the 195.150 at Alaska Anchorage back on Feb. 21.
Sacramento State led by two-tenths after the first rotation, scoring a 48.900 on vault compared to the Aggies' 48.700 on bars. The Hornets were led by junior Rylin Zimmerman, who scored a career-high 9.825 to finish in a tie for third and match junior Sarah Lutrel's score against Southern Utah on Feb. 28 for the highest score by a Sacramento State vaulter this year.
Senior Emma Morgenthaler finished fifth with a season-high tying score of 9.80, which is tied for third on the season list, while Lutrel scored a 9.775 to place sixth and tie for ninth on the season list. Freshman Lexi Frank also set a career high with a 9.70.
