No. 1 Baylor acrobatics and tumbling opened their season on a good note with a 277.930-251.305 victory over the No. 14 University of Mary Hardin-Baylor Saturday evening in the Ferrell Center. The Bears (1-0) led for the entire match and cruised to a comfortable victory over the Crusaders (0-1). Under head coach Felecia Mulkey, the Bears are 8-0 in season openers.
The recent ice storm took a toll on the squad’s ability to prepare for the event, but Mulkey was proud of how the team performed. She said the group doesn’t want to be performing at their best this early in the season, as they’d like to save that high level of play for the end.
