Hello again for the second time this weekend! We’re in Raleigh, NC, for a Sunday afternoon showdown in a highly anticipated ACC matchup as NC State hosts the Cal Bears for the first time. It’s a Wicked-themed meet (how fun!), and it’s also Mental Health Awareness Night, so expect to see plenty of pink and green in the stands and on the competition floor.
California has been a force to be reckoned with in recent seasons, and this year is no different. The Bears are ranked No. 8 nationally and sit in the top 10 on all four events. They’re coming off a win against Clemson, posting a score of 196.925 while sweeping the event titles. Ella Cesario took home three of those titles, including the all-around, with CJ Keuneke, Mya Lauzon, Madelyn Williams, and eMjae Frazier also contributing top-scoring routines.
NC State is riding high after defeating their in-state rival, UNC, last weekend. The Wolfpack not only secured the win but also posted a season-high team score, setting new season highs on vault, bars, and floor. Key performances came from Ashley Knight, Kailee Adomaites, Lauren Wright, Krista Zultevicz, and Chloe Negrete.
Both teams are explosive and a blast to watch. With no Sunday night football this week, grab a snack and enjoy some fantastic…
