SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — The University of Utah Gymnastics team won a dual meet against in-state rival Southern Utah University Friday night at the Huntsman Center.

Sophomore Avery Neff led the way for the Red Rocks won the all-around scoring a 39.7 which included a perfect 10 on the vault. It was Neff’s third 10 of the year and her second on the vault in the last two meets.
Red Rocks put up season-high against BYU
Utah put up a season high 49.625 on the bars, and were headed to a possible 198 score, but those hopes were derailed by two falls on the beam where Utah had to count one of them.
But the Red Rocks rebounded nicely on the floor. Neff and Ella Zirbes both scored 9.925’s and MaKenna Smith logged a 9.950.
Utah is now 10-3 on the season. The Red Rocks will now hit the road for a matchup with No. 16 Denver on Sunday, March 1st.
