FAYETTEVILLE — The Arkansas Razorbacks gymnastics team soared past a big milestone on Friday, eclipsing the 197 mark for the first time under second-year Coach Jordyn Wieber.
The No. 8 University of Arkansas notched a hefty 197.25, the third-highest score in program history, but it was not enough to surpass mighty No. 1 Florida, which won the SEC dual meet with a 197.425 before a crowd capped at 1,200 at Barnhill Arena.
Arkansas posted its highest score since logging a 196.95 in a home win over Georgia last Feb. 17, and fell just 0.05 shy of the program’s all-time high score of 197.
