LIVE BLOG: No. 27 Nebraska at Iowa State

Date:

This matchup might be somewhat under the radar, but both of these teams are looking to prove something as they begin 2024.

Arguably one of the most intriguing teams going into this season is Iowa State. Ashley Miles Greig enters her first season ever as a coach and takes over a team that missed regionals last year for the first time since 1997. The Cyclones lost 11 gymnasts in the rebuild (12, if you count Danielle Press transferring in and then being removed mid-preseason), but they kept Loganne Basuel and Laura Cooke for fifth years and they will be critical to helping Iowa State start off on the right foot. The freshmen have also been showing out during preseason; look for Noelle Adams and early arrival Ella Schell to contribute early in their freshman campaigns.

As for Nebraska, the Huskers returned to regionals as a team for the first time since 2019. The Huskers showed glimpses of greatness when they found consistency and were led by star all-arounders Sophia McClelland and Emma Spence. Heading into opening night, Nebraska will want to show that it plans to continue its uphill climb with a top 25 ranked recruiting class and the addition of Lucy Stanhope, who has all-around potential but will especially elevate the Huskers on vault and floor.

It’s tiiiiiiiiime!…
