Arizona will travel to Washington this Sunday for a potentially very close matchup. The Wildcats have a solid 7-2 winning record against the Huskies and will be looking to add to that here.
The Huskies are in for a busy weekend, traveling on Friday for the Boise State quad, then flying back Sunday for their home alumni meet. Washington is coming off a 196.500-season high against Arizona State with standout moments from Lilly Tubbs who put up a season-high 9.95 on bars. All-around standout Skylar Killough-Wilhelm took the all-around title with a 39.475, her second-highest score this season. Washington has been consistently putting up solid 196 team scores but will need to up its game this week against Arizona, which is a team that can break into the 197s.
Arizona is coming off a loss against Oregon State last weekend where it put up a 196.850. The team had great moments on beam, putting up a season-high 49.425, but still showed vulnerabilities on vault by having to count three 9.7s. Malia Hargrove, a lock-in for Arizona’s lineups, has been missing from competition for the past two weeks. If Hargrove is still out for this meet that should be something significant to note for this meet and Arizona’s winning chances.
