Related Topics: Utah, Center Stage

March 1st kicked off Women’s History Month, and the ladies of the Utah athletic department are contributing by creating some history of their own this weekend.

Kicking things off, #4 Red Rocks gymnastics posted their second-highest score in program history Friday night while tying the highest score in the nation this season en route to beating #9 Minnesota 198.575 to 197.850. The score ties Auburn and Florida for the highest score in the nation this season and was accomplished in part by a trio of perfect 10.000’s two of which were earned by Malie O’Keefe on the beam and bars, where Sage Thompson also turned in a perfect routine, marking the first time since 2015 that Utah has earned back-to-back 10.
