SETTING THE SCENE
The Central Michigan gymnastics team welcomes rival Western Michigan on Saturday for a Mid-American Conference dual meet at McGuirk Arena.
LAST TIME OUT
The Chippewas defeated two-time defending MAC champion Eastern Michigan in Ypsilanti. CMU posted a 194.525 team score to the Eagles’ 194.025.
While the 194.525 was plenty good to win the meet, it was far from the standard CMU set – a sizzling 196.375 – one week earlier in its season opener. It marked the best score a Chippewa team has posted in program history for an opening meet.
