Welcome to week four of the 2024 season with an exciting SEC dual meet featuring No. 4 Arkansas vs. No. 13 Auburn. Arkansas is having a great start to its season and last week set a new program record of 197.525 in its dual meet against Alabama (the final result ending in a tie). Auburn is coming off of two losses in a row – one to Kentucky and one to Florida – where both times it posted a score of 197.025. This is an improvement from its first meet where it scored below the 197 mark.
Auburn’s Cassie Stevens is one to watch out for and is currently ranked highest in the all-around for both teams. Arkansas’ Priscilla Park made her all-around debut last week posting 9.800+ on three routines with a miss on one routine. It will be great to see if she hits four for four this week. Others to watch out for include Arkansas’ Lauren Williams and Cami Weaver, both ranked in the top 20 on vault and Auburn’s Gabby McLaughlin who is ranked 15th on balance beam.
Make sure to also keep an eye on the crowd during this meet. This is Arkansas’ first Compete for a Cause Meet where the team and fans are encouraged to dress in colors that show support for or recognize causes close to their hearts.
Let’s get started!
