Let’s call πŸ“ž this one : Practice what you Preach! Welcome πŸ™ to Southern Utah University versus Brigham Young University in Gymnastics!

When your rallying cry is we are all in this together and each person counts equally ❀, sometimes you have to lead by example.

Neither Lin or I have ever attended a College Gymnastics meet before tonight but during our 90 Day Stay we have supported both Southern Utah University and Utah Tech. Tonight that spills over to the balance beam !

All Thunderbirds matter !
6:30 Start Time !!

First Note πŸ“ – the young Man in the ticket 🎟 office stated that only Football outdraws Gymnastics. I smiled back in his direction but wasn’t sure if he was pulling my leg.

The answer is No, he was not….

BYU will start on the uneven bars and SUU on the Vault.

6:39 – underway ! The teams alternate athletes on their side of the Gym

6:50 – The teams now switch over to compete in the event that the other team just completed.

Team Name – Flippin Birds 🐦!!!

7:09 – first two events are in the Books πŸ“š!

Next up – BYU  to the floor, SUU to the beam.

7:35 – time to switch events again. The atmosphere in here borders on undescribable – Mad Energy !!

6 Athletes per team compete in each event…

Each performance is judged right after with the scores posted on the Jumbo Tron

SUU is celebrating its third straight conference Championship as they unveiled the banner before hand βœ‹

8:04 – end of those two events.

Awaiting a scoring update…..

196,975 to 196.000 in favor of the Cougars.

8:17 – end of competition

Good Night
