Penn State is coming off of its season high and Auburn is coming off its season low. If you looked at scores from last week, Penn State would come out on top of this matchup. That is not the expected outcome in what is the senior meet for Auburn. Auburn will be looking to bounce back from a season low with a season high to try to maintain its ranking heading into conference championships while Penn State is one spot away from being in a regional qualifying position, and will look to take advantage of a potentially high scoring SEC senior meet environment with a high away score.
The struggle for Auburn lately, and the event to watch, is beam. With Sunisa Lee not competing tonight, the focus will be on the rest of the lineup. Both Sophia Groth and Gabby McLaughlin will aim to have strong routines after falls last week at Kentucky . Penn State has been becoming a vault team the past couple of weeks with some unique vaults with strong landings. Ava Piedrahita has an Omelianchik that has scored over 9.9 the last three weeks. Watch out for the vault in the second rotation because the last Omelianchik vault to be competed at Auburn scored a 10.
Scores to watch: Auburn is looking to drop a 197.500, while Penn State is looking to drop a 195.525.
