Baylor acrobatics and tumbling is gearing up to defend its title yet again as the new season gets underway against the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor at 5 p.m. on Saturday in the Ferrell Center. The team will be competing to win their seventh consecutive national championship, all under head coach Felecia Mulkey.
The Bears were voted the favorite this season in the NCATA Preseason Coaches’ Poll. They received 29 of the 31 ballots to claim the top spot. Mulkey said being the defending national champs doesn’t add any pressure because the pressure is always there.
