A late Friday night match up has Air Force facing off against former conference for Sacramento State. While the Falcons are now a part of the Mountain West, it will still want to defeat the Hornets at home. These two teams enter the meet nearly evenly matched, with their season averages less than a quarter tenth apart. Sacramento State is coming into this meet after scoring a season high last week, thanks to a stellar all around performance from sophomore Sarah Lutrel, who scored a career best 39.175. Air Force is coming off a loss to UC Davis after a shaky beam rotation. Look for the Falcons to rebound, led freshman all arounders Maggie Slife, who has already scored 39.425 this season, and Clara Wallace who has hit 9.800 on three events this season. This should be a really close meet, and will likely be determined by who can hit bars and beam, both of which have challenged these teams at time this year.
