It’s senior night in the PMAC! This LSU team is the definition of resilience after multiple injuries, some season-ending, have forced the Tigers to dig deep. At the P&G Podium Challenge, they narrowly came away with the victory over California after losing Aleah Finnegan to illness and Kai Rivers to an Achilles injury. Alyona Shchennikova returned to the all-around and Haleigh Bryant continued to impress, so look for the Tigers mentality to remain steadfast as they aim to get a big score before SECs.
For the Mountaineers, they want a big road score to improve its NQS and increase its likelihood of making the postseason. West Virginia set the third-highest score all time and the first 197 score of the Jason Butts era with a 197.325 on their senior night. Kianna Yancey has been a big contributor in the all-around, with fellow seniors Emily Holmes-Hackerd and Abbie Pierson leading the way with multiple scores above a 9.900.
