One step closer to their fifth back-to-back NCATA National Championship, No. 1 seed Baylor acrobatics and tumbling brought home their 29th consecutive win after defeating No. 8 seed Gannon University 279.20-253.39 in the tournament quarterfinals.

The Bears began the tournament in the lead with a compulsory score of 38.15, outscoring Gannon by over two points.

Baylor’s lowest score came in the compulsory tumbling heat at 8.95, but despite that hiccup, the team averaged a 9.63 score, including a 9.9 in the pyramid open and an impressive 9.925 aerial pass from senior top Hope Bravo.
