Head Coach Kaelyn Cowan's Post-Meet Thoughts
"We had a pretty rough travel day Friday, but we had our best point averages in toss, tumbling and team events. We love the second half! We are excited to work more on the compulsory event.  We did have some errors in the team event, even with the highest team point total, so we're going to work on that too tomorrow. 
 
"Getting into the next meet Monday, we'll have a short practice tomorrow to adjust a few things that I know that we can do better. We're super excited for Monday."
