SALT LAKE CITY — The 2017 Utah gymnastics team impressed a record crowd of 6,115 fans in the annual Red Rocks Preview at the Huntsman Center Friday night.
“I’ve been here seven years and that was one of our best preseasons we’ve had,” said Utah co-head coach Tom Farden.
The intrasquad meet highlighted four all-around gymnasts, including senior Baely Rowe, sophomores MaKenna Merrell and Sabrina Schwab, and freshman MyKayla Skinner. Sophomore Kari Lee, who suffered a season-ending injury last year, returned to the competition floor in three events (beam, vault and bars).
“The anxiety was there,” said Lee.
