After taking first at the 2017 Pac-12 Championships, the University of Utah gymnastics team was deemed the best in its conference.
Along with being Pac-12 Champions, the Red Rocks were awarded more honors as freshman MyKayla Skinner, sophomore MaKenna Merrell, junior Tiffani Lewis and senior Baely Rowe were all named to the All-Pac-12 Conference team this past week.
While Lewis noted it took her off-guard, Rowe said it is something that she and her team have always strived for — to be a part of that first team in the Pac-12.
“To be recognized for that, it just shows that we have worked hard and we are getting up there and competing with confidence,” Rowe said.
