After a strong open to the conference season with a victory against Northern Illinois, Kent State gymnastics climbed two spots and is currently no. 20 in the nation with an average score of 195.488.
The Flashes are also ranked no. 7 on bars (49.138) and no. 10 on floor (49.050).
The team is currently 2-0 and just came off its first Mid-American Conference win last week.
The Flashes are keeping a close look at the rankings, hoping for a better seeding when the postseason begins.
“Our postseason (ranking) is based on how we are ranked during the regular season,” assistant coach Craig Ballard said.
